<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Silver.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Specific heat of fusion is defined as the amount of heat which is required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance to 1°C. It is generally expressed in kJ/mol

We are required to find the substance which require more heat. For that we need to know the specific heat of all the substances.

The substance which have the highest specific heat, will require more heat.

The specific heat of the given substances are:

Silver = 11.3 kJ/mol

Sulfur = 1.7175 kJ/mol

Water = 5.98 kJ/mol

Lead = 4.799 kJ/mol

The specific heat of silver is the highest and hence, will require more heat.

Hence, the correct answer is silver.

The mole concept is important in chemistry because 1. it allows us to distinguish between elements and compounds. 2. it provides
Rufina [12.5K]
Answer:
             <span>The mole concept is important in chemistry because, "</span>Atoms and molecules are very small and the mole concept allows us to count atoms and molecules by weighing macroscopic amounts of material".

Explanation:
                   To understand this question lets take an example of Hydrogen atom. Let suppose you need to react Hydrogen with Oxygen. You need exactly Two Hydrogen atoms and one Oxygen atom to form one water molecule.
                  The mass of 1 hydrogen atom is 1.76 × 10⁻²⁴ grams. How will you count the Hydrogen atoms??? How can you measure exactly for 1 Million Hydrogen Atoms???
                   Answer to these questions and Calculations lies in Mole. It is found that 1 Mole of Hydrogen weights exactly 1.008 gram and contains 6.022 × 10²³ atoms. Now, having this reference in hand you can calculate for any number of Hydrogen atoms.

Result:
           So the Mole helps us to zoom a microscopic level to a macroscopic level. :)

The formation of covalent bonds is...
Evgen [1.6K]
A covalent compound is made when two or more nonmetal atoms bond by sharing valence electrons. The shared valence electrons between two nonmetal atoms is called a covalent bond. Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms begin sharing electrons.

A lead sphere has a mass of 1.20 x 104 g, and its volume is 1.05 x 103 cm^3. Calculate the density of lead.
Hatshy [7]

Answer: The density of lead will be 11.42g/cm^3

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

Density=\frac{mass}{Volume}

Given : Mass of lead=1.20\times 10^4g

Volume of lead =1.05\times 10^3cm^3

Putting in the values we get:

Density=\frac{1.20\times 10^4}{1.05\times 10^3}=11.42g/cm^3

Thus density of lead will be 11.42g/cm^3

How many atoms are in the 3.5 moles of arsenic atoms?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
Number of atom in one mole = 6.022 × 10²³
So, in 3.5 moles, it would be: = 6.022 × 10²³ * 3.5 = 2.1 × 10²⁴

In short, Your Answer would be 2.1 × 10²⁴ atoms

Hope this helps!
