Can someone help me understand what 1b is asking and how to answer it?

Chemistry

The question is basically asking what is happening to the energy (that is in the form of heat) when it is being absorbed by an object.  The energy being absorbed from the heat source is being turned into kinetic energy.  This can be explained by temperature change.  As you add more heat to an object, the temperature rises.  Since temperature is the average kinetic energy of all of the molecules in an object, we can say that as temperature rises so does the kinetic energy of the molecules in the object.  Due to the fact that heat is causing the temperature to increase, we can say that the energy from the heat is being turned into kinetic energy.  

I hope this helps.  Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.

29.5 g of mercury is heated from 32°C to 161°C, and absorbs 499.2 joules of heat in the process. Calculate the specific heat cap
Finger [1]

Answer:

c = 0.13 j/ g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of mercury = 29.5 g

Initial temperature = 32°C

Final temperature = 161°C

Heat absorbed = 499.2 j

Solution:

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

Q = m.c. ΔT

ΔT  = T2 - T1

ΔT  = 161°C - 32°C

ΔT  = 129 °C

Q = m.c. ΔT

c = Q / m. ΔT

c = 499.2 j / 29.5 g. 129 °C

c =  499.2 j / 3805.5 g. °C

c = 0.13 j/ g.°C

Question 1 (Multiple Choice Worth 2 points)
Nookie1986 [14]

The scientific models are used because they allow scientists to make predictions and make it easier for scientists to avoid using data. option A and C is correct.

<h3>What are scientific models?</h3>

The scientific models are those which is given by scientists to allow them to make prediction about anything particular on which they are working or making research for it some examples are plum pudding model for an atom and bohr's model of an atom etc.

The biggest advantage is that scientists do not have to check the given data which are written into books they can perform their experiment and can conclude the data by performing experiment.

Therefore, scientific models are used because they allow scientists to make predictions and make it easier for scientists to avoid using data. option A and C is correct.

What kind of change is heating of mercuric oxide? ​
mario62 [17]

Answer:

Chemical change.

Explanation:

When it is heated it decomposes into mercury and oxygen gas. The mercury oxide reactant becomes the silver color of mercury. Hence, a color change can be noticed throughout the reaction.
