What has one of the greatest heat capacities?
Water - but strictly speaking a Specific Heat Capacity is more correct.
Solid solution of a metal or nonmetal dissolved in a metal?
these are called alloys steel is an alloy of iron, carbon, and other substances to give it specific properties. bronze and brass are alloys of copper and tin or copper and zinc.
What are chemical substances in food that have specific functions in the body?
nutrients
What is the difference between covalent bonds and metallic bonds?
In a covalent bond, the electrons can be defined by the atoms they are shared between; specific atoms are bound to specific others. In metallic bonding, the nuclei "float" in a sea of electrons. the electrons here are shared by the mass as a whole, with no nuclei being bound to any specific other nuclei and no electrons bound to any particular atoms.
Most metals have high melting points. Which type of bonding accounts for this property?
Metals have a specific metallic bond.
What is high heat capacity?
A substance with a high specific heat capacity is one that needs a lot of heat energy pumped into it in order to raise its temperature. Substances with relatively high specific heat capacities include water, rock, and potatoes.
What is the specific heat capacities of olive oil?
Murked It
What substances that heat and cool quickly have a high or low specific heat?
A substance that has a low specific heat needs less heat to increase its temperature. In other words under a constant heat flux it will heat or cool more quickly than the higher specific heat substances.
What specific natural or human species capacities are singled out by natural theorists?
Animals
What are your specific aptitudes capacities and nature?
A multi-aptitude test can be given to determine a person's capacities. Personality tests can also be taken to determine a person's nature.
What specific natural or human species capacities are singled out by natural law theorists?
Animals
What are the differences between metallic and non-metallic minerals?
Metallic minerals have a significant metallic elemental composition, resulting in a set of physical properties that are specific to them such as conductivity and metallic luster. Non-metallic minerals do not possess significant elemental metallic composition of exhibit those physical properties.
What substances the usual reference point for the density of other substances?
specific gravity
What is the concentration of salt in seawater and the specific heat capacities of sea water and fresh water?
the seawater smells
What has one of the greatest heat capacities?
Water - but strictly speaking a Specific Heat Capacity is more correct.
What are some specific pure substances?
marijuana.!
How do you determine heat specific heat capacities?
place two matterals each at different tempratures in contact with each other.
