Adding heat to a liquid causes which of the following physical changes?

Physics
1 answer:
SashulF [63]3 years ago
8 0

In almost every case in nature, adding heat to a liquid
causes the density of the liquid to decrease.  That is,
when the liquid gets warmer, it expands and occupies
more space.

The one big exception to this rule is water ! 

Starting with a block of ice at zero°C (32°F), as the ice melts,
becomes water at zero°C, and all the way to 4°C (about 39°F),
its density increases all the way.   That is, it shrinks and occupies
less
volume as it goes from ice at zero°C to water at 4°C.

This sounds like an interesting but insignificant quirk ... until
you realize that if water didn't do this, then life on Earth would
be impossible !

Match the following examples of energy with the primary form of energy exhibited.
GalinKa [24]

The primary energy exhibited is:

friction:  Heat energy

Due to friction. there is heat loss in mostly all machines.

nuclear power plant:  Nuclear energy

In nuclear power plant, fission or fusion of radio-active substances produces large amount of nuclear energy.

toaster element:  Heat energy

Heat energy is produced in the toaster when electricity passes through the element. This is used to heat the toasts.

welding torch:  Heat energy

The heat energy produced in the welding torch is used in welding.

eraser sitting on a desk edge:  Potential energy

Potential energy is possessed by a body due to virtue of its height.

light bulb:  Heat energy and light energy.

The element inside the bulb gets heated first and then light energy is produced.

campfire:  Heat energy

Heat is produced and then light energy in case of campfire.

moving car:  Kinetic energy

A moving body has kinetic energy.

lump of coal in a storage bin:  Potential energy

A lump of coal in a storage bin has potential energy.

stick of TNT: potential energy

Stick of TNT is formed of explosive mixture. It contains potential energy.

The density of balsa wood is 0.170 g/cm3.  What is the mass if the volume is 12.0 mL?
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.04 g</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

density = 0.17 g/cm³

1 mL = 1 cm³

12 mL = 12 cm³

So we have

mass = 0.17 × 12

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.04 g</h3>

Hope this helps you
