The atomic radius of main group elements generally increases down a group because as there are more electrons they are farther away from the nucleus and the electrons closer to the nucleus shield the outer electrons from the protons for attraction.
Answer:
The air molecules that are surrounding the metal will speed up, and the molecules in the metal will slow down.
Explanation:
There will be a transfer of thermal energy (heat) from the hot metal plate to the surrounding air. This transfer of energy equates to a transfer of kinetic energy in the molecules. As the plate loses heat, the molecules in the plate will lose kinetic energy and slow down. As the surrounding air gains heat, the molecules will gain kinetic energy and speed up.
No, molecules don’t ever stop moving
Answer:
Q = 1461.6 J
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of ice = 36 g
Initial temperature = -20°C
Final temperature = 0°C
Amount of heat absorbed = ?
Solution:
specific heat capacity of ice is 2.03 j/g.°C
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
ΔT = T2 - T1
ΔT = 0°C - (-20°C)
ΔT = 20°C
Q = 36 g ×2.03 j/g.°C×20°C
Q = 1461.6 J
