Answer:

The correct answer is

2. Water

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one degree. It is connected to the capacity of the substance to retain heat as well as the rate at which it will cool down or heat up when exposed to a specific amount of heat loss or heat supplied. A substance with a low heat capacity such as iron will cool down or heat up more quicker than a substance with a high heat capacity such as water.

From the list of substances water has the highest heat capacity, (4.18 J/g) as such it will retain heat for the longest period of time.

What are the basics of chemistry
Novay_Z [31]
In studying chemistry, one should learn how to read the periodic table and periodic trends in the table.. Of course, you should also know the abbreviations of each element in it so that you can identify what element is in chemical structures. Memorizing and knowing it by heart is the best way. You should also study what we call chemical nomenclature which is naming combinations of elements. Elements when combined may form ionic compounds, bonds or acids. Knowing what element reacts with another will also be necessary that's why the concept of chemical reactions must be further studied.

Please answer he questions

"Work done by a constant force on an object is the product of the force and the distance moved by the object in the direction of the force" -textbook

There is work done ONLY if the direction of the force and the direction the item is moving are the same. In figure A, the direction of the force (the lifting) is upwards (defying gravity), and the book is moving upwards, so work is done. In figure B, the force is still moving upwards (the person is carrying the books) but the book is moving to the right, so there is NO work done.

The electrolyte of the following is:
ozzi
An electrolyte is a term used to describe a compound that can dissociate into ions as it is nothing but an ionic compound, a salt made up of a positively charged cation and negatively charged anion.

Here the correct answer is D. Since there are no hydrocarbons or any other organic compound, that do not possess partial let alone full charges, all of them can dissociate in solution to give their ions.

This allows for the solution to be able to conduct electricity.
