An extra shell, which means further distance between those electrons in the valence shell and the nucleus. Ionisation energy refers to the energy required to remove valence electrons. There will be more energy required if the valence electrons are closer to the nucleus that have a positive charge, because of more attraction. If there is an extra shell, there is further distance, less attraction and hence less energy required.

2.0 kg of carbon is heated from 25°C to 55°C, and absorbs 42600 joules of heat in the process.
Marrrta [24]

Answer: c = 710 J/kg°C or 0.71 J/g°C

Explanation: Heat is expressed in the formula Q = mc∆T. Derive to find the specific heat c. So the formula will become c = Q / m∆T

c = Q / m∆T

= 42600 J / 2 kg ( 55°C - 25°C )

= 710 J /kg°C

Or can be expressed by converting kg to g.

c = 0.71 J /g°C
