1. the Moon must be in line with the Earth and Sun - New Moon for a solar eclipse and Full Moon for a lunar eclipse.2. the Moon must be at one of its nodes. Most of the time the Moon at New or Full passes above or below the Sun because its orbit is tilted relative to the ecliptic. An eclipse can occur only when it is at a node, in other words crossing the ecliptic.
Boiling Water is a physical change. When water gets to a certain temperature, it's boiling point starts.
Q = m x c x ΔT
2500 = 0.135 x C x 80.5
2500 = 10.8765 x C
C = 230.043 J/Kg.K
hope this helps
Before we describe the phases of the Moon, let's describe what they're not. Some people mistakenly believe the phases come from Earth's shadow cast on the Moon. Others think that the Moon changes shape due to clouds. These are common misconceptions, but they're not true. Instead, the Moon's phase depends only on its position relative to Earth and the Sun.
The Moon doesn't make its own light, it just reflects the Sun's light as all the planets do. The Sun always illuminates one half of the Moon. Since the Moon is tidally locked, we always see the same side from Earth, but there's no permanent "dark side of the Moon." The Sun lights up different sides of the Moon as it orbits around Earth – it's the fraction of the Moon from which we see reflected sunlight that determines the lunar phase.
The reaction occurs in a similar way as magnesium does, but much less vigorous. Strong heating is required to make iron powder burn in oxygen. The reaction gives out a yellow showery sparks and produces a black solid. iron reacts with dilute hydrocloric acid to give iron chloride and hydrogen gas.
