The mass because u can look at this formula
F = G(m1 - m2/ d squared) - Do u see volume in this equation?
Here this should help you out brother I just want to get more
Answer:
Explanation:
Mass of ice m = 500g = .5 kg
Heat required to raise the temperature of ice by 10 degree
= mass of ice x specific heat of ice x change in temperature
= .5 x 2093 x 10 J
10465 J
Heat required to melt the ice
= mass of ice x latent heat
0.5 x 334 x 10³ J
167000 J
Heat required to raise its temperature to 18 degree
= mass x specific heat of water x rise in temperature
= .5 x 4182 x 18
=37638 J
Total heat
=10465 +167000+ 37638
=215103 J
It's a hardness scale from 1-10 determining how easy or hard it is to scratch the mineral.
Remember that talc (like chalk or baby powder) is the softest and easiest to scratch then diamond being 10 is the hardest mineral to scratch or break or cut
