Water has a higher SHC as it would be cooler than the sand meaning it requires more energy to reach the same temperature 
emmainna [20.7K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The sand has a higher specific heat

Explanation:

The answer is that the sand would have a higher specific heat than water because water requires a lot of heat to raise its temperature while sand needs less heat to change it as water has a high heat capacity that allows it to maintain its temperature within a range.

What causes ionic bonding between two atoms?
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Ionic bonding happens when an atom of an element gives one or more of its electrons to the other element's atom..it usually takes place between metal and non metal atoms...like in NaCl, Na gives its valence electron to chlorine and completes its own octet. Chlorine accepts the electron and completes its own octet too...but now both the atoms have an opposing charge and hence they attract each other to form an IONIC bond.

Ionic bonds are the strongest of the bonds...here complete transfer of electrons takes place unlike covalent bonds.

As the temperature of a gas increases, which of the following explains the effect on the average kinetic energy of the gas?
lidiya [134]
As the temperature of a gas increases, the kinetic energy of the gas particles will also increase. As the temperature of the gas increase, the gas particles gains more energy to move faster, they thus collide more with one another and with the wall of the container, thus increasing pressure as well. So, as the temperature of a gas increases, the kinetic energy increases and the pressure increases as well if the gas is inside an inflexible container.

calculate the volume that will be occupied by 350 ml of oxygen measured at 720 mm hg, when the pressure changed to 630 mm hg
likoan [24]

Answer:

406.45mL

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

V1 = 350mL

P1 = 720mmHg

P2 = 630mmHg

V2 =?

The new volume can be obtain as follows:

P1V1 = P2V2

720 x 350 = 620 x v2

Divide both side by 620

V2 = (720 x 350) /620

V2 = 406.45mL

The new volume of the gas is 406.45mL
