Answer:

D) The heavier ball will have a higher temperature because the change of temperature is inversely proportional to mass.

Explanation:

As stated in the problem, the amount of heat released by each ball is

$Q=mC_p \Delta T$

where

m is the mass of the ball

Cp is the specific heat of iron (so, it is equal for both balls)

$\Delta T$ is the change in temperature of each ball

In this problem, we are said that the amount of heat released by the two balls, Q, is the same. Cp is also the same: this means that the product $m\Delta T$ must be the same for the two balls. So, the mass and the change in temperature are inversely proportional: therefore, the heavier ball will have a smaller change in temperature. And since both balls starts from the same temperature, 100 C, this means that the heavier ball will reach a higher temperature than the lighter ball.

Which of the following are properties of acids?

vladimir2022 [97]

The properties of acids are: (A), (C) and (D).

Explanation:
Acids taste sour, and most acids are poisonous. Furthermore, acids react with certain metals to produce hydrogen gas. Few acids are corrosive as well. The option (B) is not valid because acids react with BASES (not with other acids) to produce salt and water. Hence A, C and D are the correct options.

A student is told to use 20.0 g of sodium chloride to make an aqueous solution that has a concentration of 10.0 g/L (grams of so

Stells [14]

Answer:

she should add solute to the solvent

Explanation:

Given data :

Mass of the sodium chloride, = 20.0 g

Concentration of the solution = 10 g/L

Volume of 20.0 g of sodium chloride = 7.50 mL

Now, from the concentration, we can conclude that for 10 g of sodium chloride volume of the solution is 1 L

thus, for 20 g of sodium chloride volume of the solution is 2 L or 2000 mL

also,

Volume of solution = Volume of solute(sodium chloride) + volume of solvent (water)

thus,

2000 mL = 7.5 mL + volume of solvent (water)

volume of water = (2000 - 7.5) mL

volume of water = 1992.5 mL

volume of water = 199.25 L ≈ 199 L

When NASA was communicating with astronauts on the Moon, the time from sending on the Earth to receiving on the moon was 1.33 s.

frez [133]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of movement description, which determine the velocity, such as the displacement of a particle as a function of time, that is to say

$v = \frac{x}{t}\rightarrow x = v*t$
