What best explains why the sun maintains its size and shape?

Chemistry
2 answers:
ivolga24 [154]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The sun maintains its spherical shape is due to the radially symmetrical nature  of the gravitational force.

On the other hand, the sun maintains its size and shape due to the external pressure of fusion energy due to the force of gravity.  There is a stable balance between the gas pressure that is directed outward and the force of gravity that is directed inward.

An ionic bond can be formed when one or more electrons are
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Are transferred completely from the valence shell of an element to the other

Explanation:

Basically, to form a chemical bond, you either transfer or you share. When you share, it is a case of covalent bonding which can be in several other forms. When there is a transfer, it is a case of ionic bonding.

The basic explanation for this is that while some atoms are electronically sufficient, some are electronically deficient. This means while some atoms are having an excess number of electrons, then some are having less number of electrons.

To satisfy both parties, there must be a transfer if electrons between the two parties. While the one with the excess numbers serves as the donor, the one with insufficient number of electrons serve as the acceptor

An iron block of mass 18 kg is heated from 285 K to 318 K. If 267.3 kJ is required, what is the specific heat of iron? A. 450.00
valkas [14]

Answer:

  • <u>Option A. 450.00</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Data:</u>

a) m = 18 kg

b) T₁ = 285 K

c) T₂ = 318 K

d) Q = 267.3 kJ

e) S = ?

<u>2) Principles and equations</u>

The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat energy absorbed to increase the temperature of certain amount (gram, kg, or moles, depending on the definition or units) of the substance in 1 ° C or 1 K.

The mathematical relation between the specific heat and the heat energy absorbed is:

  • Q = m × S × ΔT

Where,

  • Q is the heat absorbed,
  • S is the specific heat, and
  • ΔT is the temperature increase (T₂ - T₁)

<u>3) Solution:</u>

<u>a) Substitute the data into the equation:</u>

  • 267.3 kJ = 18 kg × S × (318 K - 285 K)

<u>b) Solve for S and compute:</u>

  • S = 267.3 kJ / (18 kg × 33 K) = 0.45 kJ / (Kg . K)

The options have not units, but I notice that the first answer is 1,000 times the answer I obtained, so I will make a conversion of units.

<u>c) Convert to J /( kg . k):</u>

  • 0.45 kJ / (Kg . K) × 1,000 J / kJ = 450 J / (kg . K)

Now we can see that the option A is is the answer, assuming the units.
