Answer:
A - Chemical potential energy being converted to heat energy
Explanation:
Please provide the choices here.
The similarity of the bands in the crystal of a metal to the atomic orbitals can be explained by the band theory of metals. In an atom, when the electrons get excited, the electrons jumps to a higher orbital so as to reach equilibrium. This is analogous to the electrons in the metals which also jumps to another band once excited by an external energy (e.g. electrical energy).
<u>Given</u> :
- Amount = 20 kg
- Heat energy absorbed = 237,000 J
- Temperature change = 15 °C
<u>Formula applied</u> :

- Q = absorbed heat
- m = mass
- c = specific heat capacity
- ΔT = temperature change
Let's solve for c !
⇒ 237,000 = 20 × c × 15
⇒ c = 237,000 ÷ 300
⇒ 
∴ The specific heat capacity of granite is <u>790 J kg⁻¹ K⁻¹</u>.
Answer: The statement that is not a determining factor in formation of intrusive igneous rocks is 'None of the above' and Magma cools very fast beneath the Earth's surface.
Explanation:
Rocks are naturally occurring solid materials that are made up of different types of minerals which affects it's texture and colours. The three main types of rocks are:
--> sedimentary rocks,
--> metamorphic rocks and
--> igneous rocks.
Igneous rocks are formed from the crystallization and solidification of hot molten rocks which originates from deep within the earth. Depending on where the molten rock solidifies, the igneous rock is divided into two, namely:
--> intrusive igneous rock and
--> extrusive igneous rock.
The INTRUSIVE IGNEOUS rocks are formed within or deep beneath the earth surface when the hot magma SLOWLY cools over millions of years until it solidifies. The slow cooling allows large crystals to grow.
Therefore the statements (None of the above and Magma cools very fast beneath the Earth's surface) are not a determining factor.
Metallic ion because the metallic ions will enter an exited state and release photons energy, in the form of light, as they return to their ground state.
