<span>Each shell is composed of one or more subshells. The first K shell has one subshell, called ‘1s’; the L shell has two subshells, called ‘2s’ and ‘2p’; the third shell has ‘3s’, ‘3p’, and ‘3d’; and so on. A subshell is the set of states defined by the azimuthal quantum number, l, within a shell. The values l = 0, 1, 2, 3 correspond s, p, d and f subshells, respectively. The maximum number of electrons which can occupy a subshell is given by 2(2l + 1). This gives two electrons in an s subshell, six electrons in a p subshell, ten electrons in a d subshell and fourteen electrons in an f subshell.</span>
The two factors that are mainly responsible for determining the thermal energy of a substance are Temperature and Mass.
<h3><u>Explanation:
</u></h3>
Thermal energy is the total energy of the substance.
Temperature: The temperature and thermal energy of a substance are directly related to each other(direct proportion) which means that the greater the temperature, the greater will be the thermal energy of that particular substance.
Mass: Consider a situation, if we have two or more substances that have the same temperature the substance with the highest mass will have the most thermal energy than the others.
Now, i might be wrong but, you have to make a hypotosis of possible theories as to what the truck is doing. Then observe what changes were made after the salt was added then the question should be why was the salt added and how it changed the area. I hope this helps!
