Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Heat of fusion is defined as the heat energy required to convert a solid substance in liquid state.

So, when we heat a solid substance then the heat absorbed by it helps in breaking of intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, solid substance will start to melt and during this change the temperature remains constant until the substance completely melts which is known as latent heat of fusion.

Hence, we can conclude that the temperature of a substance remains constant as its heat of fusion is added to melt the substance.

How do hydroxyl ions and hydronium ions affect pH?
Nookie1986 [14]
Hydroxyl ions are OH⁻ while hydronium ions are H₃O⁺ which is essentially H⁺ ions. The formula for pH is: pH = -log[H⁺]. So, the greater the concentration of H⁺ is, the lower the pH which indicates acidity. On the other hand, the greater the concentration of OH⁻, the greater the pH which indicates basicity. This is also a consequence of the equation: pH + pOH = 14.

Radium-221 has a half-life of 30 sec. How long will it take for 96% of a sample to decay?
monitta
We can calculate how long the decay by using the half-life equation. It is expressed as:

A = Ao e^-kt

<span>where A is the amount left at t years, Ao is the initial concentration, and k is a constant.
</span><span>From the half-life data, we can calculate for k.
</span>
1/2(Ao) = Ao e^-k(30)
<span>k = 0.023
</span>
0.04Ao = Ao e^0.023(t)
<span>t = 140 sec</span>
