Answer:
B. The temperature of the water when the food sample has finished burning completely.
Explanation:
Heat or thermal energy is a form of energy that transfers from one object to another due to a temperature difference between the objects. The units for heat are joules or calories.
Calorimetry is the measurement of heat energy released or absorbed in a chemical reaction. A calorimeter is used in calorimetry. The calorimeter operates on the Law of Conservation of Energy which states that energy is never created or destroyed but is transformed from one form to another or between objects.
In food calorimetry, the energy released when food is burned is measured by recording the rise in temperature of water in a calorimeter when a given mass of a food sample is burned completely.
Energy can be calculated using the formula: Q = mc ∆T
where Q = the energy in joules or calories, m = the mass in grams, c = specific heat and ∆T = the change in temperature (final temperature - initial temperature).
The temperature of the water when the food sample has finished burning completely is taken as the final temperature of the water. The sample is allowed to smolder for sometime before recording the final water temperature. This is because the water temperature will continue to rise after the flame has gone out.
8.908 G/cm^3 is the density of a nickel
Answer:
This question is incomplete
Explanation:
The question is incomplete because of the absence of the table but since the question says there are data from an investigation about a plant growth and five other plants (making six) of the same type, the best way to display this type of data for analyst is to use the grouped bar chart. <u>The grouped bar chart will display the data obtained (from an investigation on plant growth) from different students on each of the six plants (of the the same type)</u>.
Colours are usually used to identify the bars (of a group) or could be used to separate the group from other groups but in this case, colours are better used to identify the bars of a group.
