If the crucible wasn't covered with a lid the reactants may have produced a gas that was released into the surroundings, or mass may have been lost in the form of water vapour.
If a substance has a relatively low melting point (below 400ºF), then it is either molecular polar or molecular non-polar
If a substance has a high melting point, then it is either metallic, covalent network, or ionic
The stronger a substance’s bonds, the higher its melting point
Answer:
Option A
250 degrees Celcius
Explanation:
If 1046J of heat energy is added to water, the water will experience a rise in temperature, at a rate that is directly proportional to its specific heat capacity.
Mathematically, this can be seen as 
Where C = specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g • °C.
Q = heat energy = 1046 J

Therefore, the increase in temperature that will be experienced, is for 250 degrees Celcius
