The joules required to heat 2L of water in a pot from 20 c to the boiling point of water is calculated using the following formula
Q= MC delta T
M = mass = density x volume( 2 x 1000= 2000ml)
M = 1g/ml x2000 ml = 2000g
C = specific heat capacity = 4.18 g/c
delta T = change in temperature = 100 c ( boiling point of water) - 20 c = 80 c
Q is therefore = 2000 g x 4.18 j/g c x 80c = 668800j
False the heat does not matter with the wind
Answer:
Ionic size increases from top to bottom within the group.
Explanation:
- Ions are formed when neutral atoms of elements gain or lose electron(s).
- The ionic radius is the distance from the nucleus of an ion to the outermost energy level.
- The ionic size or radius increases down the group as the number of energy level increases.
- Therefore, an ion of an element lower in the group will be larger than the ion of an element higher in the group.
- For example, an ion of potassium, K+, is larger in size compared to the ion of sodium, Na+ since K+ has more energy levels than Na+.
Answer: Many elements have one or more isotopes that are radioactive. These isotopes are called radioisotopes.
