Please i need the answers now. a) Explain why i) More thermal energy is required to raise the temperature of 2 Kg of a substance by 10°C than is required to raise the temperature of 1 Kg of the same substance by 10°C. ii) A solid expand when heated.

find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

1.) More thermal energy will be required to raise the temperature of 2 Kg of a substance by 10°C than is required to raise the temperature of 1 Kg of the same substance by 10°C. 

Because the thermal energy depends on the mass of an object.

If the two materials are the same, then they will have the same specific heat capacity. Thermal energy can be expressed as:

H = MCØ

Where

M = mass of the body

C = specific heat capacity

Ø = change in temperature

H = thermal energy

If u substitute the two values of masses into the formula above, then, the mass of 2kg will produce higher thermal energy .

Il.) Heat causes expansion. Using kinetic theory to explain this, the molecules of solid material are in a fixed pattern, held together with strong bonds. When heat is applied to the solid, the molecules will start vibrating in their fixed position. As a result of this, the bond between the molecules begins to loss. This eventually lead to expansion of solid.

the answer is a)
