Copernicus- developed heliocentric model, discovered the chemical element Copernicum has the symbol Cn and atomic number 112, started the scientific revolution.

Brahe- known for his precise and comprehensive astronomical and planetary observations, which heavily influenced future discoveries; built the maps of Hven that helps in accurate determinations of latitude and longitude.

Kepler - solved the mystery of the planets; believed the Solar System's planets orbited the sun in circular path that determined by an arrangement of the five platonic solids.

Galileo - Father of Modern Science; discovered the first moons ever known to orbit a planet other than Earth; first person to study the sky with a telescope; discovered the rings of Saturn; our moon has mountains; Milky Way is made up of stars; established that everything falls to the ground at the same rate regardless of weight; identified the parabola; proposed theory of relativity; discovered pendulums; tried to measure the speed of light; showed the set of perfect squares.

Newton- generalized the binomial theorem; showed sunlight is made up of all the colors of the rainbow; discovered the law of gravitation; Laws of motion and calculus.

The substances below are listed by increasing specific heat capacity value. Starting at 30.0 °C, they each absorb 100 kJ of ther
timama [110]

Answer:

Silver, 0.239 J/(g °C)

Explanation:

  • The heat change is related to specific heat as given by the formula;

Heat change = mass of substance × specific heat × change in temperature

  • Therefore; considering same amount of substance or equal masses and have the same initial temperature.
  • The change in temperature will be inversely proportional to the specific heat.
  • Therefore; the higher the specific heat lower the temperature change.
  • Hence,  the change in temperature will be highest for the substance with the lowest specific heat.

Therefore; the one that will increase in temperature the most is Silver

At standard temperature and pressure. 0.500 mole of xenon gas occupies
ANEK [815]

Answer:

0.500 mole of Xe (g) occupies 11.2 L at STP.

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Gas Laws</u>

  • STP (Standard Conditions for Temperature and Pressure) = 22.4 L per mole at 1 atm, 273 K

<u>Stoichiometry</u>

  • Mole ratio
  • Dimensional Analysis

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Identify.</em>

0.500 mole Xe (g)

<u>Step 2: Convert</u>

  1. [DA] Set up:                                                                                                  \displaystyle 0.500 \ \text{mole Xe} \bigg( \frac{22.4 \ \text{L Xe}}{1 \ \text{mole Xe}} \bigg)
  2. [DA] Evaluate:                                                                                               \displaystyle 0.500 \ \text{mole Xe} \bigg( \frac{22.4 \ \text{L Xe}}{1 \ \text{mole Xe}} \bigg) = 11.2 \ \text{L Xe}

A baseball player hits a ball. Which is the best description of the energy of the ball as it flies over the pitcher’s head?
Elan Coil [88]

The right option is; b. mechanical

Mechanical energy is the best description of the energy of the ball as it flies over the pitcher’s head.

Mechanical energy is the energy that an object acquires due to its position or due to its motion. From the question, the baseball player has chemical potential energy (stored as food) which is transformed into work. As the baseball player hits the ball, there is energy exchange in which the ball acquires energy to perform its work. The energy obtained by the ball upon which work is done is called mechanical energy.
