Answer:

Their atoms obey the octet rule

Explanation:

Chemical compounds are formed when atoms combine with one another in order to comply with the octet rule. The octet configuration gives an atom stability in electronic structure.

  • When atoms become isoelectronic with noble gases, it confers a special stability on them.
  • Therefore, to attain this state, they gain or lose electron or share their electrons with other species.

If you have a block of plastic and a block of copper that are the same mass and are placed in the sun for 10 minutes. What is th
LuckyWell [14K]

INFORMATION:

Is given that:

- if you have a block of plastic and a block of copper that are the same mass and are placed in the sun for 10 minutes.

And after the 10 minutes copper has a higher temperature.

We must determine the reason.

STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION:

To determine it, we need to know the concept of specific heat

If the block of copper has a higher temperature after 10 minutes, that means copper needs less heat to raise its temperature.

So, plastic has a higher specific heat than metal, so it takes more energy to heat plastic than copper. As a result, plastic would heat up more slowly.

ANSWER:

The explanation for the copper having a higher temperature after 10 minutes in the sun, is that plastic has a higher specific heat than metal, so it takes more energy to heat plastic than copper. As a result, plastic would heat up more slowly. Since the copper has a lower specific heat, it will be heat quickly.
