You can heat ice, for example, and measure the temperature while it melts. You should notice that you heat it for quite a while, but that the temperature doesn't increase until all the ice is melted.

Can evaporation increase the temperatures?

Evaporation can lead to a decrease in temperature because it requires energy to break the bonds between water molecules. As a result, evaporation cools the surrounding area.


Which liquid requires more time to increase in temperature by 5 degree?

A liquid with a higher specific heat capacity would require more time to increase in temperature by 5 degrees compared to a liquid with a lower specific heat capacity. This is because liquids with higher specific heat capacities can absorb more heat energy before their temperature rises.


Why does an increase in temperature increase the volume of a balloon?

This requires one simple equation and then a further understanding of it. PV=nRT where P is pressure, V is volume, T is temperature, n is the number of molecule, R is some constant. From this we can easily see that an increase in temperature does in fact cause an increase in volume. To see why lets think about what temperature is. Temperature is a measure of average kinetic energy. So an increase in temperature increases the average kinetic energy. An increase in average kinetic energy means that average velocity must be increased (K.E = .5(mv^2)). More velocity means that the molecules in the balloon are flying faster, and since pressure is the same, the molecules spread out more, which must increase the volume.


What effect does specific heat have on how easily an object changes temperature?

The higher the specific heat of an object, the more energy it requires to change its temperature. Objects with higher specific heat values require more heat input to increase their temperature compared to objects with lower specific heat values.


A sound that is perceived as twice as loud requires what?

A sound that is perceived as twice as loud requires an increase in sound intensity of approximately 10 decibels. This doubling of perceived loudness corresponds to a tenfold increase in sound intensity.

What evidence might you have that a change of state requires the use of heat of energy that would otherwise cause the temperature to increase?

You can heat ice, for example, and measure the temperature while it melts. You should notice that you heat it for quite a while, but that the temperature doesn't increase until all the ice is melted.


Give an example where one substance has a lower specific heat therefore requires less energy to increase in temperature?

An example of one substance has a lower specific heat and requires less energy to increase in temperature is tomato sauce.


How is the thermal expansion works?

as the temperature increases the atoms in a metal gain energy so the KE of the atoms increase this increase their movement for this it requires more space so it expans to increase the gap between the atoms or molecules


What does not requre energy?

To sit around and not do anything, an object requires no energy. Otherwise, just about ANYTHING requires energy - and in most cases, for most changes, useful energy must be converted into unusable energy - i.e., entropy must increase.


Is adultery requires an evidence?

Of course it does.


What requires less heat to change its temperature than do most other common liquids?

Water requires less heat to change its temperature compared to most other common liquids. This is due to its high specific heat capacity, which means it can absorb or release a significant amount of heat with only a small change in temperature.


Which would take more energy to increase temperature by 5 degrees water or Aluminum?

It would take more energy to increase the temperature of water by 5 degrees than aluminum. This is because water has a higher specific heat capacity, meaning it requires more energy to raise its temperature compared to aluminum.


Whilst a substance is boiling why doesn't it get hotter?

During boiling, the temperature does not increase because the heat energy is being used to convert the liquid into vapor rather than raise the temperature. This phase change from liquid to gas requires energy, known as latent heat, which keeps the temperature constant. Once all the liquid has been converted into vapor, further heating will then increase the temperature.


What evidence is required to assert the validity of the claim that which can be asserted without evidence?

The claim that can be asserted without evidence requires evidence to be considered valid.


Which requires interpretation or that which requires the judge or jury to reach a conclusion based upon what the evidence indicates?

This refers to circumstantial evidence, which requires the judge or jury to draw inferences and make conclusions based on the facts presented, rather than direct evidence that conclusively proves a fact. It involves reasoning and weighing the evidence to determine the most likely explanation or conclusion.


How could you change the viscosity of the substances?

You can change the viscosity of a substance by adjusting its temperature- generally, increasing temperature decreases viscosity and vice versa. You can also alter the composition of the substance by adding viscosity modifiers or solvents to increase or decrease viscosity accordingly. Mixing different substances together can also affect the overall viscosity of the mixture.


How does an increase in confining affect a rocks melting temperature?

An increase in confining pressure typically raises a rock's melting temperature because the increased pressure inhibits the formation of liquid magma. This is due to the fact that higher pressure requires higher temperatures to overcome the forces holding the rock together in a solid state.
