If a beaker of water is placed under a broiler so that the heating coil is above the beaker. It is observed that only the surfac

e layer boils. The water at the bottom of the beaker remains close to the initial temperature of the water. Which of the following statements is the most reasonable conclusion to be drawn from these observations?
a) Water is a poor conductor of heat.
b) The sample must contain impurities.
c) Water is easily heated by radiation.
d) Water exhibits anomalous thermal behavior.
e) The molecular motion in the sample is not random.

Answer:

a

Explanation:

The most reasonable conclusion of the above phenomenon is that water is a poor conductor of heat. Basically water is an insulator. The heat from surface to the bottom of the beaker will take a lot of time. Moreover, no convection current is formed so, heat might not even reach the bottom surface. Hydrogen bonding also play a vital role in determining the thermal properties of water.

hence option A is correct

Mass×acceleration of a triangle =force​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The force acting on a body is always equal to the product of the mass of the body and its acceleration.

Explanation:

The force of a body is defined as the product of mass and acceleration of the body.

According to Newton's second law, wherever there is a change in momentum of the body for an interval of time, there is a force acting on it.

                         F = (mv - mu) / t

                             = m (v -u) /t

                              = m a

Where,

                                 (v - u)/t - is the change in velocity of the body in the interval of time. It is equal to the acceleration of the body.

Hence, the equation for the force for any body becomes, F = m x a

The elements least likely to form bonds are found in which group?<br> O 15<br> O 16<br> 017<br> O 18
12345 [234]
The answer is group 18.

Explanation:
Group 18 is known as the Noble Gases. They are the most stable elements because they have a full outer shell of valence electrons, so they have no need to bond with other elements.
