Answer:
D) The amount of heat a substance can hold.
Explanation:
Specific heat capacity:
It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
The substances with higher value of specific heat capacity require more heat to raise the temperature by one degree as compared the substances having low value of specific heat capacity.
For example,
The specific heat capacity of oil is 1.57 j/g. K and for water is 4.18 j/g.K. So, water take a time to increase its temperature by one degree by absorbing more heat while oil will heat up faster by absorbing less amount of heat.
1) period
2) the answer is D) I because they are in the same column
3) B)Ge because they are in the same column
4) A) Al because they are in the same column (share same characteristics)
5) D) they have the same number of valence electrons
6) D) nonmetals
The environment affects natural selection. Speices need to adapt to changes in environmnet. The weaker organisms which fail to adapt to environment perish while the stronger ones who adapt to the environment survive. This is how environment affects natural selection.
Sample cost = $15.796
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
Mass = 2 g
Density = 0.718 g/ml
Cost = $5.67 per mL
Required
Cost
Solution
The density : the ratio of mass and volume
Can be formulated :
Density (ρ) = m : V
The volume of the liquid :
V = m : ρ
V = 2 g : 0.718 g/ml
V = 2.786 ml
Sample cost :
= 2.786 ml x $5.67/ml
= $15.796
