Describe melting of a solid

Chemistry
1 answer:
kvv77 [185]3 years ago

Answer- The particles in a solid gain enough energy to overcome the bonding forces holding them firmly in place. Typically, during melting, the particles start to move about, staying close to their neighbouring particles, then move more freely.

The same heat transfer into identical masses of different substances produces different temperature changes. Calculate the final
myrzilka [38]

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

1. Which phase change is accompanied by the release of heat? A) H20(s)--> H2O(g) B) H20(l) ->H2O(s) C) H20(l)→ H2O(g) D) H
docker41 [41]

Answer:

B, liquid to solid.

Explanation: Since heat is being released, the particles for H2O would clump up. Heat is basically being taken out.

Which of the following shows the wavelengths of light that an atom gives off when an electron falls to a lower energy level?
charle [14.2K]

The wavelengths of light that an atom gives off when an electron falls to a lower energy level corresponds to Emission spectrum , Option D is the correct answer.

<h3>What is Emission Spectrum ?</h3>

Light is absorbed or emitted when an electron jumps or falls into an energy level.

The energy of light absorbed or emitted is equal to the difference between the energy of the orbits.

Therefore , the wavelengths of light that an atom gives off when an electron falls to a lower energy level corresponds to Emission spectrum.
