Thermal energy transfers in a solid state, due to convection, in metalic substances.
This is because the covalent bonds between the atoms are being broken and reformed again while the metal is experiencing stress. <em>covalent bonds store energy. </em>
B the atomic number is 20 and then you subtract atomic mass to find the neutrons
Answer:
ΔE = 73 J
Explanation:
By the first law of thermodynamics, the energy in the system must conserved:
ΔE = Q - W
Where ΔE is the internal energy, Q is the heat flow (positive if it's absorbed by the system, and negative if the system loses heat), and W is the work (positive if the system is expanding, and negative if the system is compressing).
So, Q = + 551 J, and W = + 478 J
ΔE = 551 - 478
ΔE = 73 J
