hi have a nice day

will be less than 26 °C as water has a relatively higher specific heat than sand.

Explanation:

The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat energy absorbed by one unit of mass of the substance when its temperature increases one unit.

From that, you can derive the equation for the specific heat of a substance:

specific heat = heat / (mass × ΔT)

Thus, assuming that all the heat provided by the lamp to both samples is the same and, as given, the amount (mass) of both samples is also the same, you have that the specific heat of the samples will be:

specific heat = constant / ΔT

So, specific heat and ΔT are inversely related.

It is known that water has a higher specific heat than sand (that is why the sand on the shore of a beach is, during the day, hotter than the water and your feet get burned when you walk on a sandy beach on a sunny day

Why do atoms gain or lose electrons?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:kapil

Explanation:

Atoms lose electrons, if an electron gets more energy than then binding energy of the electron. This may be because of a collision with a charged particle or because of absorbtion of a photon. In a metal, there are just other positive charges nearby. The electron is not lost, but shared.

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

a. True

Explanation:

Alkanes are chains of carbon atoms surrounded by hydrogen atoms. TRUE.

Alkanes are hydrocarbons, that is, they are organic compounds formed only by carbon and hydrogen. In alkanes, carbon atoms are bonded to each other through single covalent bonds and they are also bonded to hydrogen atoms through the same type of bonds. Alkanes have the general formula CnH2n+2.

5. Can you determine the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom by looking at the element's average atomic mass and the at
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

No you can't

Explanation:

The atomic number is the amount of protons in element's nucleus, that's one reason why. The second reason is that the atomic mass is protons and neutrons combined, their estimated value, which doesn't show how much neutrons are in an element. It does show combined, but not specifically neutrons
