Answer : (C) Hafnium is the most likely identity of the given substance.
Solution : Given,
Mass of given substance (m) = 46.9 g
Volume of given substance (V) = 3.5 
First, find the Density of given substance.
Formula used :
Now,put all the values in this formula, we get
= 13.4 g/
So, we conclude that the density of given substance (13.4 g/) is approximately equal to the density of Mercury and Hafnium (13.53 and 13.31 g/ respectively).
According to the question the substance is solid at room temperature but Mercury is liquid at room temperature. So, Mercury is not identical to the given substance.
Another element i.e, Hafnium is the element whose density is approximately equal to the given substance and also solid at room temperature. And we know that the melting point of solid is high.
So, Hafnium is the most likely element which is the identity of the given substance.
She will most likely observe that the temperature
does not change during melting because the heat absorbed is used to overcome
intermolecular forces rather than to increase the kinetic energy of the
particles if she measures the temperature of the water in the beaker.
Co2 = two covalent bonds
ccl4 = 4 covalent bonds
Lih = covalent bond
No, the added heat melts the ice, but the result is water at the same temperature. Hence, option B is correct.
<h3>What is temperature?</h3>
The degree of hotness or coldness is measured on a definite scale.
Temperature doesn't change as heat is added during a phase change; for example, when the ice melts.
During the phase change, the added heat doesn't make the molecules move faster, but rather further apart.
Thus, No, the added heat melts the ice, but the result is water at the same temperature.
