Antarctica or the south pole , which is mostly ice, is much colder than the arctic or the north pole, which is a mixture of ice and water. This is because the liquid water in the Arctic Ocean would absorb and release more heat which would keep the temperature in the region to fluctuate frequently. Also, the specific heat of ice is less than the specific heat of water which means that the temperature of ice would easily change. Another reason would be that  the Antarctica have stronger winds so it would absorb heat faster making the average temperature much colder that the Arctic ocean.

What would happen if you added more than 5ml of H2O2 to the 5ml of yeast
anzhelika [568]

Hydrogen peroxide breaks down into water and oxygen.


2H₂O₂ → 2H₂O + O₂


The yeast present contains an enzyme called catalase which catalyses the reaction.


More the amount of the catalyst added, faster will be the decomposition of the hydrogen peroxide.


Thus if we added more than 5 mL of yeast solution to the 2H₂O₂, the breakdown would occur faster. Thus the bubbles and the accompanying fizz would be much more.

Answer:

5446.8 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (M) = 50 g

Initial temperature (T₁) = 70 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 192.4 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) = 0.89 J/gºC

Heat (Q) required =?

Next, we shall determine the change in the temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 70 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 192.4 °C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

ΔT = T₂ – T₁

ΔT = 192.4 – 70

ΔT = 122.4 °C

Finally, we shall determine the heat required to heat up the block of aluminum as follow:

Mass (M) = 50 g

Specific heat capacity (C) = 0.89 J/gºC

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 122.4 °C

Heat (Q) required =?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 50 × 0.89 × 122.4

Q = 5446.8 J

Thus, the heat required to heat up the block of aluminum is 5446.8 J
