How can you tell if a substance is hygroscopic?
If the substance absorbs water like crazy.
When a substance melts or boil it absorbs what?
Heat.
When a substance melt or boils it absorbs?
Heat
What type of substance is heated by radiation?
Any substance that absorbs the radiation is heated by it.
Which substance in plants absorbs energy in the photosystems?
Chlorophyll
What happens to the thermal energy of a substance as its temperature increases?
When a sample of a substance absorbs thermal energy, its temperature rises.
50g of a substance's temperature increase from 20C to 40C when it absorbs 250 calories of heat What are its heat capacity and its specific heat in joules?
345 J ok good
What changes during melting?
The substance absorbs the heat of fusion. The temperature does not go up, but the form of the substance changes.
When a substance loses or absorbs energy its temperature can change true or false?
Very true.
Is a bloom is a substance that absorbs light?
a bloom is a substance that absorbs light
The substance in a leaf that absorbs sunlight is called?
The substance in a leaf that absorbs sunlight is the chloroplast.Chloroplast is an organelle(a specialised structure within the cell, that performs a specific function) which contains the green pigment called chlorophyll.Large, broad leaves
How are heat and specific heat related?
heat does not effect specific heat. for example if water has a high specific heat, a change in heat wont effect its specific heat.P.S if you don't like my answer, please improve it.I like people who are honest.Heat is a form of energy. Heat either changes the state of matter from solid to liquid to gas OR it changes the temperature.Specific heat (also called specific heat capacity) is the amount of heat that a substance (like water) absorbs when exactly one gram of that substance is heated so that its temperature increases by one degree Celsius. The specific heat relates three quantities: the heat applied, the temperature change, and the mass of the object.An amount of heat may be 100 calories.The specific heat capacity allows us to calculate the temperature change for a quantity of a substance to which that heat is applied.Since the specific heat of water is 1 calorie per gram degree Celsius if 100 calories is applied to 50 grams of water then the temperature only changes 2 degrees Celsius.
What is the substance that absorbs and releases heat in a cooling system?
A refrigerant is a substance that absorbs and releases heat in cooling systems.
What is the specific heat of a substance that absorbs 2.5 x 10 joules of heat when a sample of 1.0 x 10 g of the substance increased in temperature from 10.0c to 70.0 degree c?
Q (heat) = mass*Specific Heat*Temperature differenceI assume 2.5 * 101 Joules? or 25 J & 10 grams of substance?25 J = 10 grams * (SH) * (70-10oC)25 J =10 g *60oC * SHSH = 25 J/(10 g * 60oC)S.H. = 0.0417 J/gOC
A substance that absorbs light?
Pigment :|]
When matter absorbs heat what is its temperature?
thee temperature goes higher because when it absorbs heat,the temperature goes hotter :)
Which substance will absorb the greatest amount of heat when heated until they have the same final temperature?
For gasses at room temperature: Hydrogen 14.3 Helium 5.2 For liquids at room temperature: Ammonia 4.70 Water 4.18 For solids at room temperature: Lithium 3.58 Units in J/g*K
