There are two beakers that contain the same liquid substance at the same temperature. The larger beaker is 1,000ml and the small
er beaker is 100ml. How does the thermal energy of the liquid in the larger beaker compare to the thermal energy of the liquid in the smaller beaker? A. The liquid in the larger beaker has the same amount of thermal energy as the liquid in thesmaller beaker.
B. The exact volume of liquid in each beaker must be known to compare the thermal energyof the liquids.
C. The liquid in the larger beaker has less thermal energy than the liquid in the smaller beaker.
D. The liquid in the larger beaker has more thermal energy than the liquid in the smaller beaker.
Since you do not know the volume of the liquid in each beaker, the one in the smaller beaker could have more substance and therefore more thermal energy. If they had the same amount of substance, then the more voluminous one would radiate faster. However, since you do not know this, there is no way to tell. PM me if you have more questions. Hope this helps!
Mendeleev left gaps in the periodic table because, in the future, he knew that there would be more elements to be discovered because not all elements were discovered at the time.
