We can use the equation to find out E = mc△T E is the total energy (calories) needed, m for mass, c for specific heat capacity and △T for the temperature change. Substitute the numbers given E = 500 x 1 x 10 E =5000 Therefore the answer is 5000Cal
Since nonmetals have five, six, or seven electrons in their valence shells, it takes less energy to gain the necessary electrons, and therefore form anions.
