<u>Answer: </u>The correct answer is Silver.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Specific heat of fusion is defined as the amount of heat which is required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of a substance to 1°C. It is generally expressed in kJ/mol
We are required to find the substance which require more heat. For that we need to know the specific heat of all the substances.
The substance which have the highest specific heat, will require more heat.
The specific heat of the given substances are:
Silver = 11.3 kJ/mol
Sulfur = 1.7175 kJ/mol
Water = 5.98 kJ/mol
Lead = 4.799 kJ/mol
The specific heat of silver is the highest and hence, will require more heat.
Hence, the correct answer is silver.
The variable that stays the same in an experiment is called the controlled variable

Answer:
Considering the half-life of 10,000 years, after 20,000 years we will have a fourth of the remaining amount.
Explanation:
The half-time is the time a radioisotope takes to decay and lose half of its mass. Therefore, we can make the following scheme to know the amount remaining after a period of time:
Time_________________ Amount
t=0_____________________x
t=10,000 years____________x/2
t=20,000 years___________x/4
During the first 10,000 years the radioisotope lost half of its mass. After 10,000 years more (which means 2 half-lives), the remaining amount also lost half of its mass. Therefore, after 20,000 years, the we will have a fourth of the initial amount.
