The heat required to raise the temperature of a certain mass of sample to a specific temperature change, we use the formula mCpΔT where m is mass, Cp is the specific heat of the substance and ΔT is the temperature change. In this case, we substitute and form 1.25 g x 0.057 cal/g C *20 C equal to 1.425 calories.
Answer:
Element with 6s subshell
Explanation:
Reactivity of an element depends on the electronic configuration and position of element in the periodic table as reactivity increases as we go down the periodic table.
This is so because number of shell increases as move down the periodic table and the last electron is further away from the nucleus.
Element with 6s subshell is the largest among 3s and 4s subshell and has more number of shells so it will react more than 3s and 4s subshell.
Hence, the correct answer is "Element with 6s subshell".
A crystal is any solid that has an organized structure. ... So it is a prerequisite to be a crystal in order to be a mineral. All minerals, therefore, form crystals. On the other hand, there are crystals that are not minerals, because they are not naturally occuring, or because they are not inorganic

Answer:-
Oxygen gains electrons and is reduced.
Explanation:-
For this reaction the balanced chemical equation is
4Fe + 3O2 --> 2Fe2O3
When Oxygen is present as oxygen gas, the oxidation number of O is Zero since it is the only element present in Oxygen gas.
Similarly Iron is present in Fe with oxidation number Zero.
In the case of Fe2O3, Oxygen has the oxidation number -2 while Iron has +3.
So the oxidation number of Oxygen goes from Zero to -2.
Since the oxidation number decreases Oxygen is reduced.
Since reduction involves gain of electrons, Oxygen gains electrons.
