The atomic number of H2O is 18 hence it contains 18 protons. Hope this helps.
Answer:
Adding or removing energy from matter causes a physical change as matter moves from one state to another. For example, adding thermal energy (heat) to liquid water causes it to become steam or vapor (a gas). And removing energy from liquid water causes it to become ice (a solid).
The rate of photosynthesis was measured by counting the amount of oxygen, a product of photosynthesis, generated by the plant. When the plant placed closer to the light source in a given time it generated more bubbles than when it was placed farther away from the light source.
Answer:
I would use calorimetric to determine the specific heat and I would measure the mass of a sample
Explanation:
I would use calorimetry to determine the specific heat.
I would measure the mass of a sample of the substance.
I would heat the substance to a known temperature.
I would place the heated substance into a coffee-cup calorimeter containing a known mass of water with a known initial temperature.
I would wait for the temperature to equilibrate, then calculate temperature change.
I would use the temperature change of water to determine the amount of energy absorbed.
I would use the amount of energy lost by substance, mass, and temperature change to calculate specific heat.
