The amount of energy released when 0.06 kg of mercury condenses at the same temperature can be calculated using its latent heat of fusion which is the opposite of melting. Latent heat of fusion and melting can be used because they have the same magnitude, but opposite signs. Latent heat is the amount of energy required to change the state or phase of a substance. For latent heat, there is no temperature change. The equation is:
E = m(ΔH)
where:
m = mass of substance
ΔH = latent heat of fusion or melting
According to data, the ΔH of mercury is approximately 11.6 kJ/kg.
E = 0.06kg (11.6 kJ/kg) = 0.696 kJ or 696 J
The answer is D. 697.08 J. Note that small differences could be due to rounding off or different data sources.
Answer:
37.3
263.5
Explanation:
The scale measures hundreds of units, tens of units, units, and parts of units (1 decimal place.
Scale 1
Hundreds 0 * 100 = 0
Tens: 3 * 10 = 30
Units: 7 * 1 = 7
1/10 unit = 3* 0.1 = 0.3
Total 30 + 7 + 0.3 = 37.3
Scale 2
Hundreds 2 * 100 = 200
Tens: 6 * 10 = 60
Units: 3 * 1 = 3
1/10 unit = 5* 0.1 = 0.5
Total = 200 + 60 + 3 + 0.5 = 263.5
Distilled water is neutral, so there are no ions to allow the flow of electricity
When you boil water, you aren't changing the elements. You're just making water vapor. However, when you burn paper, it becomes carbon (mostly). So physical changes will not change the substance, only chemical changes will.
