Explanation:

When a large block of ice is placed in a hot cup of water then some of the ice will melt into the cup. As a result, when ice melts then after sometime temperature of cup will become equal to the temperature of ice.

Therefore, ice won't melt further as surface area of cup is small so, only some of the ice will melt into it.

Whereas when same block melts when dropped into a lake it completely melts because lake has large surface area and hence, ice will melt into it easily. This is also because there is different in temperature of both ice and lake.

So, ice will melt into it as temperature of ice will be less than the temperature of lake.

You're extremely lucky that i used common sense to deduce the answer from the kind gentleman (or women) above, or below. Its

D) Lake contains more mass and more heat than said cup.

Next time, put the choices too. We're not Houdini and can magically know the answers.

Why is thermal energy from the sun transferred to Earth through electromagnetic waves, instead of any other type of thermal ener
nlexa [21]

Answer: B) Electromagnetic waves can travel through empty space.

Explanation:

Conduction: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct contact between the two object.  Example: heating a pan on stove.

Convection: This type of heat transfer happens when there is a movement of fluid (liquid or gas) due to the movement of hot layers to the top and cold layers to the bottom which leads to convection currents. Example: Heating of swimming pool.

Radiation: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct transfer of energy through empty space.The electromagnetic radiation from the surface of an object which is due to the object's temperature is radiation. Example: Heating of earth's surface.

in the modern wave-mechanical model of the atom, the orbitals are regions of the most probable location of
irina [24]

The orbital is the probable location of the electron of an atom.


Always remember the difference between Bohr and wave-mechanical model in terms of electrons!  

Your questions answer is Electron!  

But you should also know Bohr said electrons are in orbitals in a fixed proportion, but modern wave mechanical disagrees with this and said electrons are arranged in a very complex random proportion in a region called orbital!  

Hope this helped


have a smiley day (:

In order to make 159 ml of a 0.135 M benzoic acid solution, what mass of benzoic acid (C7H6O2) is required?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

159 mL of .135 M benzoic acid will contain

.159 x .135 = .021465 moles of benzoic acid.

Molecular weight of benzoic acid = 122 gm

grams of .021465 moles = 122 x .021465 = 2.6 grams .

So 2.6 grams of benzoic acid will be required .

When 711 J of heat is added to a 41.1 g of an unknown metal, the temperature of the metal increases from 22oC to 94oC. Calculate
alekssr [168]
The   specific  heat  capacity  of   the  metal  is   calculated  as follows

  heat energy =  Mc delta  T
heat  energy (Q) = (711 j  )
m=mass    (41.1 g)
c=  specific  heat  capacity  =?
delta  t =  change  in  temperature(  94 -22=72)

c=  Q/m  delta  T
  c=711 j  /  (41.1 g  x72)  =  0.240  j/g /k
