Two identical pots, one black and one silver, containing exactly the same amounts of water, are heated to the same temperature.

They are left uncovered and placed in the same room. After 15 minutes the water in the black pot is significantly cooler than the water in the silver pot. Which of these statements best explains this difference?
A)The black pot emits heat at a faster rate than the silver pot.
B)The black pot allows more heat to be lost through evaporation.
C)The silver pot absorbs heat from the surroundings in the room.
D)The silver pot reflects heat into the water and keeps it warm longer.

The most probable answer is: (a) <span>The black pot emits heat at a faster rate than the silver pot. It means the black pot conducts heat at a higher rate than the silver pot, that's why it cooled off faster. It also means that the silver pot retains heat better and is more of an insulator.</span>

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Black color absorbs heat more quickly and it also emits heat at a faster rate.

Whereas silver is one of the best conductor of heat and electricity. Therefore, it absorbs heat more quickly but it does not emit heat at a faster rate.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement black pot emits heat at a faster rate than the silver pot best explains that black pot is significantly cooler than the water in the silver pot.

Answer:

2KClO3 —> 2KCl + 3O2

The coefficients are 2, 2, 3

Explanation:

From the question given above, we obtained the following equation:

KClO3 —> 2KCl + 3O2

The above equation can be balance as follow:

There are 2 atoms of K on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of KClO3 as shown below:

2KClO3 —> 2KCl + 3O2

Now, the equation is balanced.

Thus, the coefficients are 2, 2, 3

The following reaction, catalyzed by iridium, is endothermic at 700 K: CaO(s) + CH4(g) + 2H2O (g) → CaCO3 (s) + 4H2 (g) For the
arsen [322]

Answer:

A. Increasing the temperature will favor forward reaction and more CaCo3 formed.

B. More CaCo3 will be formed.

C. CaCo3 will decrease and more react ants formed.

D. Less CaCo3 will be formed.

E. Iridium is a catalyst so there is no effect

Explanation:

A. Temperature will increase because it's an endothermic reaction.

B. Adding Cao will favor forward reaction and more CaCo3 formed.

C. Removing methane, more react ants are formed and CaCo3 decreases.

D. Irridi is a catalyst so it has no effect on the CaCo3 but only speeds its rate of reaction.

TRUE OR FALSE :Normal cells will not divide unless the nutrients they require are already presen True False
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Cell division is a primary procedure by all cells. This process in the life cycle of cells ensures that new cells (daughter cells) are produced. The two major process are; meiosis and mitosis.

Normal cells would divide if the nutrients required are not present, since water is the main nutrient required. But in some cases, the division process may lead to an effect on one or both daughter cells. This effect is called mutation, thereby mutated cells may be produced.
