Heat is energy, and that energy would eventually cause the object to undergo a phase change.
Democritus, a Greek philosopher, first developed the idea of atoms (around 460 B.C., I believe).
Hope this helps!

The balanced equation for the reaction is
Na2B4O7*10H2O + 2 HNO3 = 2 NaNO3 + 4 H3BO3 + 5 H2O
So for each mole of Borax to neutralize, it takes 2 moles of HNO3.
Calculate number of moles of Borax
0.2619 g / 381.372 g/mol = 0.0006867 mol
Moles of HNO3 used = 0.0006867 mol * 2 = 0.0013734 mol
Molarity is defined as moles per liter so divide the number of moles used by the volume in liters. So
0.0013734 / 0.02161 = 0.06355391 mol</span>
