lesson 8- specific heat capacity & climatographing

Question 1

specific heat capacity

Answer 1

amount of energy required to raise 1g’s temperature of the substance by a single degree (how much energy does it take for ur mom to get angry)

Question 2

high heat capacity meaning??

Answer 2

takes considerable amount of energy to increase temperature of mass of water

Question 3

large energy released from a mass of water when

Answer 3

the temperature decreases

Question 4

is specific heat capacity of water higher than air?

Answer 4

yes

Question 5

once water is heated

Answer 5

water can be mixed downward by waves, turbulence, and subsiding ocean currents.

Question 6

calorimeter

Answer 6

determines the transfer of thermal energy. any energy that is released can be detected as a change in temperature.

Question 7

quantity of thermal energy

Answer 7

amount of thermal energy absorbed or released when temperature of a substance’s mass changes by a few degrees (one two skip a few ahh)

Question 8

heat of fusion (Q=nHfus)

Answer 8

amount of energy absorbed when 1 mol a substance changes from solid to liquid

Question 9

heat of vaporization (Q=nHvap)

Answer 9

amount of energy absorbed by when 1 mol changes from liquid to vapour

Question 10

phase changes (IN ORDER)

Answer 10

1. solid phase
2. melting or fusion
3. liquid phase
4. vaporization
5. vapor phase

Question 11

temperature is on which axis? (phase changes)

Answer 11

Y AXIS

Question 12

time is on which axis? (phase changes)

Answer 12

X AXIS

Question 13

Climatograph

Answer 13

average temperature and precipitation for each month of the year for a specific location

Question 14

climatographs: X Axis is what?

Answer 14

the months of the year

Question 15

climatographs: Y Axis is what?

Answer 15

temperature and precipitation
