Answer:
Convection currents are the result of differential heating. Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth.
The answer to this question would be: too low
Molar mass would be determined by the number of mol and the mass of the object. Mass wouldn't be influenced by the temperature, but number of mol is. Using ideal gas formula of PV=nRT you can conlude that the amount of mol(n) is inversely related to the temperature (T).
If the temperature is higher than it supposed to be, then the amount of mol would be lower than it supposed to be.
Answer: 1709.4 Joules
Explanation:
The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) released on cooling a heated substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)
Thus, Q = MCΦ
Since Q = ?
M = 18.5 grams
Recall that the specific heat capacity of copper C = 0.385 J/g.C
Φ = 285°C - 45°C = 240°C
Then, Q = MCΦ
Q = 18.5grams x 0.385 J/g.C x 240°C
Q = 1709.4 Joules
Thus, 1709.4 Joules is released when copper is cooled.
