Answer : The metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is 
).
Explanation :
In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.
where,
= specific heat of unknown metal = ?
= specific heat of water = 
= mass of unknown metal = 150 g
= mass of water = 200 g
= final temperature of water = 
= initial temperature of unknown metal = 
= initial temperature of water = 
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get
Form the value of specific heat of unknown metal, we conclude that the metal used in this was iron (Fe).
Therefore, the metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is ).
Answer:
The correct answer is "They can be separated by physical processes"
Explanation:
The definition of Mixtures is <em>the blending of two or more dissimilar substances</em>.
Mixtures can be divided into those that are homogeneous or heterogeneous meaning that they can be distributed evenly or can't be distributed evenly.
Answer:
- The standard form of a chemical element is the natural mixture of several isotopes of the same element, which is atoms with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons, while an isotope is a particular kind of atom with a definite number of neutrons.
Explanation:
A <em>chemical element</em> is a pure substance formed by atoms with the same atomic number (number of protons). This is because it is the number of protons what identifies an element.
For example: oxygen is a chemical element, so oxygen is formed by only atoms of oxygen, and the atomic number of those atoms is 8, because every oxygen atom has 8 protons.
Nevertheless, some atoms of oxygen, may have different number of neutrons. Isotopes are different kind of atoms of the same element, which only differ in the number of neutrons. So, some atoms of oxygen will have 8 neutrons, other 9 neutrons, and other 10 neutrons (those are the stable isotopes of oxygen).
That difference in neutrons, is generally accepted that, does not modifiy substantially the chemical properties of the element, but the mass number. So, the isotopes with more neutrons wil be heavier, and the isotopes with less neutrons will be lighter.
- Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons.
In general a chemical element is formed by a mixutre of isotopes of the same element.
Answer:
Erosion is the transportation of sediment at the Earth's surface. 4 agents move sediment: Water, Wind, Glaciers, and Mass Wasting (gravity).
