When the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.
<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>
Specific heat capacity is the quantity of heat required to raise a unit mass of a substance by 1 kelvin.
<h3>Specific heat capacity of water and sand</h3>
Water, c = 4,200 J/kg⁰C
Sand, c = 830 J/kg⁰C
Q = mcΔθ
where;
- Δθ is temperature change
- Q is quantity of heat added
Δθ = Q/mc
Thus, for an equal mass of water and sand, when the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.

Answer:
Explanation:
Assume we have 100g of this substance. That means we would have 20.24g of Cl and 79.76g of Al. Now we can find how many moles of each we have:
= 2.25 mol of chlorine
= 0.750 mol of Al.
To form a integer ratio, do 2.25/0.75 = 2.99999 ~= 3.
So the ratio is essentially Al : Cl => 1 : 3. To the compound is possibly .
However, it says it has a molar mass of 266.64 g/mol, and since AlCl3 has a molar mass of 133.32, it must be .
Actually this molecule isn't exactly AlCl3 (which is ionic). Al2Cl6 forms a banana bond where Cl acts as a hapto-2 ligand. But that's a bit advanced. All you need to know is X = Al2Cl6
Antoine Lavoisier was part of a wealthy family in Paris. He pursued to study science upon realizing that chemistry or the study of the elements was not a well-studied field. His discovery of that air was a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen gave rise to the concept of COMBUSTION after repeating the experiments made by Priestly using mercury and other metal oxides.
The event was such a history-making because it disproved that concept that air was a pure substance along with 3 others: earth, fire, and water.
