<span>I would measure the mass of the solid substance. I would prepare a known mass of room temperature water large enough to submerge the solid substance in question. I would place the water in an insulated container. Then I would heat the solid substance to a known temperature. I would measure the temperature of the heated sample and the water. Then I would submerge the sample in the water and allow the sample and the water to reach the same temperature. I would measure this equilibrium temperature.
I would interpret the difference in temperature between the heated sample and the equilibrium temperature as the change in temperature in the sample. Given the known mass, the beginning temperature of the water, and the equilibrium temperature I can determine how much energy was transferred from the heated sample to the water.
Now the mass of the sample, a change in temperature in the solid substance, and the amount of energy transferred to create the temperature is known. This is sufficient to determine the specific heat of the solid substance</span>
Answer:
melting is the process by which the a substance goes from a solid to a liquid as the temperature decreases.
freezing is the process by which a substance goes from a liquid to a solid as the temperature decreases
Explanation:
Answer:
D. 4 protons 2 neutrons and 4 electrons
The increase in pressure alters the equilibrium of the reaction. In this case, the number of gaseous products in the reactant side is zero while the product side contains 1 gaseous product. The increase in pressure favors the side with less number of gaseous molecules which is the reactant side. Hence, the reaction rate decreases.
Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Thermal energy is defined as the energy present within the molecules of a substance.
Also, when two objects that have different temperature and they are in contact with each other then heat will always flow from hot object to cold object.
For example, if a metal spoon is placed in a hot cup of coffee then heat will flow from hot coffee to the metal spoon.
Therefore, we can conclude that during heat transfer, thermal energy always moves in the same direction: HOT COLD.
