Chemistry

Answer: The statement, atoms in the sand were moving more quickly best describes why the  temperature of the sand increased.

Explanation:

As Sun rises in the morning everyday and the heat energy radiations given by the Sun falls on a number of objects on our surroundings. As a result, the objects absorb this heat energy till afternoon due to which they become hot.

Hence, atoms of the objects gain kinetic energy due to which they move quickly. This shows that the temperature of the object (sand here) increases.

When Maria walked in the same area in the afternoon, the sand was hot as its particles have gained kinetic energy due to which they move rapidly from one place to another. Hence, sand feels more hot in the afternoon in the same area where she walked.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement the atoms in the sand were moving more quickly best describes why the  temperature of the sand increased.

When you apply 1000 joules of energy to 50 grams of water its temperature changes to 30 degrees . What was the initial temperatu
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

25.2°C

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Energy applied to the water  = 1000J

Mass of water  = 50g

Final temperature  = 30°C

Unknown:

Initial temperature  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

            H  = m c Ф

H is the energy absorbed

m is the mass

c is the specific heat capacity

Ф is the change in temperature

     1000  = 50 x 4.184 x (30  -  initial temperature )

     1000  = 209.2(30 - initial temperature)

      4.78  = 30 - initial temperature

      4.78  - 30  = - initial temperature

         Initial temperature  = 25.2°C

Cracking the periodic table code why aren't the elements listed in alphabetical order answer key
finlep [7]

The elements in the periodice table are not listed in alphabetical order, because the arragement in rows (periods) and columns (groups or familes), in increasing order of atomic number (number of protons of the atoms) permits to explain similarities among the elements, trend in some properties, and even predict properties of unknown elements.


For example, the elements of the first group (family), called alkaline metals, all have 1 valence electron, have similar physical properties (ductibility, malleability, luster, thermal and electricity conductivity), react in similar way with water, show a trend in the atomic radii and in the ionization energy.


You can tell similar stories for other groups like, alkalyne earth metals, halogens and noble gases.


You can also tell trends in electroneativities, and atomic radii, for a row of elements, as per the order they are in the row.


So, the current array resulted very helpul for chemists to explain and predict the behavior and properties of the elements.

Bezzdna [24]

Answer: As a result, each excited electron in an atom emits a photon of a specific wavelength. To put it another way, each excited noble gas emits a distinct hue of light. This is a reddish-orange neon light.
