In an attempt to identify an unknown metal, a scientist measures out 20. grams of the unknown material and brings it to its melt

ing temperature. The scientist then determines that the amount of energy required to completely melt all of the unknown metal is 2100 J. Use the table below to identify the metal:
metal Latent heat of fusion (J/g) Latent heat of vaporization (J/g)

Nickel 298 6430

Silver 105 2390

Aluminum 397 10900



nickel

silver

aluminum

none of the above

Answer:

Option D, None of the above

Explanation:

Latent heat of fusion is the amount of energy required to change the phase of metal from solid to liquid. While Latent heat of vaporization is the amount of energy required to change the phase of metal from liquid to gas.

Now, in the question the unknown metal melts from solid to liquid when 2100 J of energy is supplied.

None of the metal in the given set of options has  " metal Latent heat of fusion" equal to or near to 2100 J

Thus, option D is correct.

Explain how meiosis promotes variation in a species.

In meiosis, the chromosome pairs do the crossing over where there is an exchange of genetic material between them and because of it the chromatids held together by the centromere are no longer the same.

A pea plant with purple flowers (and unknown genotype) is crossed with a pea plant with white flowers. one-half of the offspring
Archy [21]
The genotypes of the parents are Aa (heterozygous) and aa (recessive homozygous).  
 For example:  
 If the purple flower is dominant phenotype, then A is a dominant allele for it and Aa is a genotype which will give the purple colour.
In this case, white flower is recessive phenotype with aa genotype.
If we cross Aa x aa
<span>The offspring is going to be Aa Aa aa aa (half purple and half white)</span>

Why is the weight of an object more on Earth than on the Moon?
MissTica

The correct answer is:

Gravitational pull is greater on earth . As weight = mass × g so we have more weights on earth than on moon.

Explanation:

This is because gravitational force is immediately proportional to the mass of an object. Greater the mass, greater will be the gravitational force exerted by it and thus, more will be our weight. As the moon has secondary mass than the earth, it has a lighter gravitational influence and hence, we weigh less on the moon.

"They will be able to better understand how, exactly, the creature is able to adapt so well to different environments" Expand on
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Please see below

Explanation:

Adapting to the surrounding environment is a critical part of surviving and, eventually, evolution. Take mice as an instance. Their coat color plays a major role in allowing to go undetected from potential predators if they are able to blend in well with the surrounding environment. Mice with a coat color that makes them stand out will be easily preyed on. Hence, those who have <u><em>adapted</em></u> to their environmental conditions will live to pass on their genes. This phenomenon is known as selection pressure.
