Water generally cools down slower than metal. This is because water has a higher specific heat capacity, which means it can absorb more heat before its temperature changes significantly compared to most metals. Metals tend to cool down faster due to their lower specific heat capacity.

Is vinegar metal a pure substance or a mixture?

Vinegar is not a metal. It is a mixture of water and acetic acid.


When a substance is cooled what happens to its particles how does cooling affect the volume of the substance?

When a substance is cooled, its particles lose kinetic energy and move more slowly, causing them to come closer together. This reduction in particle movement typically results in a decrease in the volume of the substance, as the particles occupy less space. In most cases, this leads to the substance contracting; however, exceptions exist, such as water, which expands upon freezing.


What two substance are made in metal and acid reaction?

A metallic salt and water.


Can you suggest two methods to cool down a substance?

1. Immerse in cold water as they do in welding shop 2. Allow cold air to get in contact with the hot substance It depends on the type of substance, the time factor and the way in which it is to be cooled.


Which igneous rock is cooled the slowest Gabro or Granite?

The type of igneous rock formed depends more on the composition of the magma or lava that formed it than it does on the speed at which it cooled (notable exceptions include obsidian, which is flash cooled). To determine which cooled faster look at the coarseness of the rock. Large crystalline particles are formed by slower cooling liquid since the molecules had more time to arrange into crystals. That being said, Granite is more likely than Gabbro to have cooled away from water and therefore slower.

Example of substance convert from solid to vapor and vice- versa?

One example of a substance that can change from a solid to a vapor and vice versa is water. When water is heated, it changes from a solid (ice) to a liquid (water) and eventually to a vapor (steam). When steam is cooled, it condenses back into liquid water, and if cooled further, it freezes back into solid ice.


What type of soil drains water the slowest?

Hard-pan clay soil percolates (drains) water the slowest.


Is an air cooled car lighter or heavier than a water cooled car engine?

An air cooled car will be lighter. The air cooled engine has a single thin walled engine block for air cooling just like an air cooled motorcycle or early VW Beetle. There is no antifreeze, radiator, water pump, hoses, etc, that a water cooled car would have. The water cooled engines have two walls (an inner wall for the pistons, etc, and the outer wall to hold the water) to help carry the water around the hot spots of the motor so you have twice the metal plus the weight of the water, etc. There's probably 200lbs to 300lbs savings.


What substance changes from a gas to a liquid?

Water is a substance that changes from a gas (water vapor) to a liquid (water) through a process called condensation. This change in state occurs when the temperature of the water vapor decreases, causing it to lose energy and form liquid water droplets.
