False. That's why sound cannot be heard in space.
Answer:
Explanation:
First of all let's define the specific molar heat capacity.
(1)
Where:
Q is the released heat by the system
n is the number of moles
ΔT is the difference of temperature of the system
Now, we can find n with the molar mass (M) the mass of the compound (m).
Using (1) we have:

Mantle convection
Explanation:
The driver of moving plates is the mantle convection.
Convection is a heat transfer process that involves the movement of fluids from one place to another.
How does convection occur in the mantle?
- Part of the mantle known as the asthenosphere is a hot liquid. It moves slowly and does not readily flow.
- Over riding the asthenosphere is the brittle lithosphere made up of the upper mantle and the entirety of the crust.
- The asthenosphere is at a higher temperature compared to the lithosphere on top.
- In order to achieve stability and thermal equilibrium, the asthenosphere rises to the surface whereas the dense and cold lithosphere sinks down.
- This way a convective cell is set up.
- Hot materials rises to the surface because they are light whereas cold materials on the surface sinks into the asthenosphere.
- Through this the plates moves.
