Answer:
The specific heat of the alloy
Explanation:
Mass of an alloy = 25 gm
Initial temperature = 100°c = 373 K
Mass of water = 90 gm
Initial temperature of water = 25.32 °c = 298.32 K
Final temperature = 27.18 °c = 300.18 K
From energy balance equation
Heat lost by alloy = Heat gain by water

25 × × ( 373 - 300.18 ) = 90 × 4.2 (300.18 - 298.32)
This is the specific heat of the alloy.
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
A covalent bond is defined as the bond which occurs due to sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.
Generally, a covalent bond is formed between non-metals.
For example, both nitrogen and oxygen atoms are non-metals and they combine covalently to form compound.
As nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and an oxygen atom has 6 valence electrons. So, there occurs unequal sharing of electrons between the two.
Thus, we can conclude that when a covalent bond forms then electrons in valence shells are shared between atoms.
