Hello! Specific heat is the amount of energy required by known amount of substance to raise its temperature by one degree celsius. In our question it is given that 2000J energy when supplied to 125 g of unknown substance raised its temperature by 18 oC. So, The specific heat is calculated as follow;
Atoms combine as the electrons from each atom are attracted to the nuclei of the atoms. This results in bonds ranging from 100% covalent to bonds with high ionic character. The combination of atoms to form compounds occurs when the compounds being formed are at lower energy than the original atoms
D) warm and wet.
Water can be a catalyst, and heat speeds up reactions.
