Answer: final temperatures will be

a) water 21 C

b) concrete  20.005 C

c) steel   20.008 C

d) mercury  53 C

Explanation:

Change in temp dT = dH / (mass x specific heat)

Specific heat of these materials can be found from many sources:

water = 1 kcal / kg C

concrete = 210 kcal / kg C

steel = 114 kcal / kg C

mercury = 0.03 kcal /kg C

So dT (water) from 1 kcal heat into 1 kg water = 1 kcal / (1 kg x 1 kcal/kg C) = 1 C therefore the final temperature is 20 + 1 = 21 C

But dT (steel) = 1 kcal / (1kg x 114 kcal/kg C) = 0.008 C so the final temperature is 20 + 0.008 = 20.008 C

The results for concrete and mercury are calculated in the same way

Changing the number of _____ would change an atom into an atom of a different element. changing the number of _____ would change
AURORKA [14]
Answer: Protons

WHY?
Changing electrons will only result in the same element having different charges and hence, changing it's chemical properties.

Changing neutrons will not change an element but it will result in an isotope forming instead. (Isotopes are elements of the same type with different neutron numbers.)

However, changing the proton number would immediately change the nucleus composition, resulting in a change in element with a negative charge as there are more electrons than protons. This results in a expansion in valance electrons's distance from the nucleus. This results in a change in chemical properties of the element.

Therefore, a change in Protons is the answer.

14) A wavelength of radiation has a frequency of 2.10 x 1014 Hz. What is the wavelength of this radiation in nm, and
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

λ = 1.43 x 10³ meters (radio waves)

Explanation:

c = f·λ => λ = c/f

λ = wavelength = ?

f = frequency = 2.10 x 10¹⁴ Hz = 2.10 x 10¹⁴ cycles/sec

c = speed of light (vacuum) = 3.0 x 10⁸m/sec

λ = c/f = 3.0 x 10⁸m/sec / 2.10 x 10¹⁴sec⁻¹ = 1.43 x 10³ meters (radio waves)
