<span>b.) Add heat to increase the molecular motion of the atoms</span>
Answer:
sorry I don't really know :P
Explanation:
<u>We call changes between solid liquid and gaseous forms of a substance as phase change or change of state.</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
To change a substance from one state to another, extreme temperatures or pressures are required. Sometimes when a substance doesn't change states we should use all the ideas when that happens. To create a solid, we should decrease the temperature by a huge amount and then add pressure. For example, oxygen will solidify at -361.8 degrees Fahrenheit at standard pressure. However, it will freeze at warmer temperatures when the pressure is increased.
Phase changes happen when a substance reach some special points. Sometimes when a liquid becomes a solid a freezing point or melting point is used to measure the temperature at which a liquid changes into a solid. Some of the phase changes are: Condensation, Freezing, Melting.
<u>Answer </u>
A. that the initial gravitational potential energy of the masses transformed into kinetic energy of the paddles and then to thermal energy in the water
<u>Explanation</u>
James Joule allowed some water to fall from a height of 1 foot. the water would turn a paddle wheel at the bottom causing a temperature of water to raise.
The height form which the water fell, mass and the temperature of water was measured and used to calculate mechanical equivalent of heat.
From the choices given the best answer is A. that the initial gravitational potential energy of the masses transformed into kinetic energy of the paddles and then to thermal energy in the water.

Comment
You could calculate it out by assuming the same starting temperature for each substance. (You have to assume that the substances do start at the same temperature anyway).
That's like shooting 12 with 2 dice. It can be done, but aiming for a more common number is a better idea.
Same with this question.
You should just develop a rule. The rule will look like this
The greater the heat capacity the (higher or lower) the change in temperature.
The greater the heat capacity the lower the change in temperature
That's not your question. You want to know which substance will have the greatest temperature change given their heat capacities.
Answer
lead. It has the smallest heat capacity and therefore it's temperature change will be the greatest.
