Students were asked to place a mint in their mouths and determine how long it took for the mint to dissolve. Students were asked

to leave a whole mint in their mouth and let it dissolve. Other student groups varied how the mint was treated. One group was asked to swirl the whole mint around in their mouth; another group cut the mint in half, and last group broke the mint into small pieces. The results are displayed in the table.
What conclusion can be drawn from the results?
A) Surface area did not play a role in this activity.
B) Agitation of the mint increased the dissolving time.
C) As surface area increased, the dissolving time decreased.
D) The heat of the mouth helped to decrease the time for the mint to dissolve.

Solute Time to dissolve (seconds)
whole mint 192
mint cut in half 108
swirled mint 76
mint cut into small pieces 38

The correct answer is C, the dissolving time will decrease due to the increased surface area.

Answer: C) As surface area increased, the dissolving time decreased.  

Surface area is the area which is exposed for a activity or process to take place. In this case surface of area being judged upon on two cases when students were asked to keep the whole mint in their mouth as such and in other when they were asked to swirl it in the mouth. Swirling inside the mouth will increase the surface area of the mint for dissolution inside the mouth. Therefore, as surface area increased, the dissolution time decreased.

Compare and contrast how sound waves behave when they
Ghella [55]

Answer:

As sound waves move (or more accurately, when they travel by transferring their energy) they interact with physical objects. Soft surfaces will absorb sound while hard surfaces will reflect it. .Hard surfaces reflect sound and soft surfaces absorb sound.

The convex mirror has a reflecting surface that curves outward, resembling a portion of the exterior of a sphere. Light rays parallel to the optical axis are reflected from the surface in a direction that diverges from the focal point, which is behind the mirror

A 1-kg iron frying pan is placed on a stove. The pan increases from 20°C to 250°C. If the same amount of heat is added to a pan
Nesterboy [21]

Answer;

The temperature change for the second pan will be lower compared to the temperature change of the first pan

Explanation;

-The quantity of heat is given by multiplying mass by specific heat and by temperature change.

That is; Q = mcΔT

This means; the quantity of heat depends on the mass, specific heat capacity of a substance and also the change in temperature.

-Maintaining the same quantity of heat, with another pan of the same mass and greater specific heat capacity would mean that the change in temperature would be much less lower.
