The substances referenced in the table are being considered for use in cooking materials. Since the materials must be melted during manufacturing, the
energy required for this must be evaluated. Select the statements that accurately compare the energy required to bring a kg of the materials to their
melting point
Silver requires more energy than copper
Brass requires more energy than silver
Platinum requires more energy than silver
Platinum requires more energy than copper
Aluminum requires more energy than copper
Aluminum requires more energy than brass

Respuesta :

Brass requires more energy than silver

Aluminum requires more energy than copper

Aluminum requires more energy than brass

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of a substance indicates the amount of heat energy required to raise 1 kg of that substance by 1 degree in temperature.

Mathematically:

[tex]C=\frac{Q}{m\Delta T}[/tex]

where

Q is the heat supplied to the substance

m is the mass of the substance

[tex]\Delta T[/tex] is the change in temperature

Therefore, the higher the specific heat capacity of a substance, the more energy is needed to increase its temperature.

Here we can compare the specific heat capacity of the materials mentioned:

Silver: [tex]C=0.233 J/gK[/tex]

Brass: [tex]C=0.380 J/gK[/tex]

Platinum: [tex]C=0.130 J/gK[/tex]

Aluminium: [tex]C=0.910 J/gK[/tex]

Copper: [tex]C=0.390 J/gK[/tex]

Therefore, the correct statements are:

Brass requires more energy than silver

Aluminum requires more energy than copper

Aluminum requires more energy than brass
