Classification systems are mental models that we create to make sorting things simpler and more efficient. We make compromises to emphasize certain details and hide others based on their perceived relevance to achieving the outcomes we seek. Even if the original model was nearly perfect, you should expect the inputs provided and outcomes desired to change as time goes by.
In time, we usually find that we have over-simplified by ignoring important details. Mental models such as classification systems should evolve over time. This enables them to more accurately reflect reality and lead to the outcomes we seek.
You can only find the details you seek by observing the right layer of abstraction.
B
A qualitative observation describes the characteristics of a substance without quantifying them.
<u>Answer:</u> The temperature of the system will be 1622 K
<u>Explanation:</u>
The equation relating the pre-exponential factor and activation energy follows:
where,
D = diffusion coefficient = 
= pre-exponential constant = 
= activation energy of iron in cobalt = 273,300 J/mol
R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol.K
T = temperature = ?
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the temperature of the system will be 1622 K
