What does hygroscopic mean?
It means any substance that readily absorbs moisture, like from the atmosphere. i.e wool goes by this term therefore has thermal qualities when laid as a carpet, in winter it absorbs the moist cold air leaving the atmospere in the room warmer and in summer it actually absorbs up to 30% of the humidity thus leaving it cooler.
What is being measured by an outdoor thermometer?
If it's in the shade, then the temperature of the air that wafts past it is. If it's in direct sun, then it's displaying the temperature of the structure of the thermometer itself, as it absorbs direct solar radiation and its temperature rises above that of the air that wafts past it.
What is negative about paper?
The paper is probably negatively charged, polar too, hence absorbs water.
What does Octisalate mean?
Octisalate a substituted salicylate that absorbs ultraviolet light in the UVB range, it is used as a sunscreen.
What does the term endosperm haustoria mean?
Endosperm means the tissue that is found when like a flowering plant is undergoing fertilization. Haustoria is something found that absorbs the nutrients or water of another plant. Endosperm Haustoria is basically a rootlike structure that absorbs the nutrients of a plant when it is in its fertilization stage(the plant is flowering).
What happens to the thermal energy of a substance as its temperature increases?
When a sample of a substance absorbs thermal energy, its temperature rises.
If a surface absorbs insolation its temperature?
increases
A metal weighing 50.0 g absorbs 220.0 J of heat when it's temperature increases by 120.0 degrees Celsius what is the specific heat?
0.04
Calculate the specific heat of a substance if 44.0 g of the sample absorbs 67.2 J and the temperature change is 11 K?
Determine the specific heat of a material if a 32 g sample of the material absorbs 58 J as it is heated from 298 K to 313 K?
Does the Ozone elevate the temperature of the planet?
Ozone is a greenhouse gas. It absorbs radiation and increases the temperature.
50g of a substance's temperature increase from 20C to 40C when it absorbs 250 calories of heat What are its heat capacity and its specific heat in joules?
345 J ok good
What changes during melting?
The substance absorbs the heat of fusion. The temperature does not go up, but the form of the substance changes.
Why is sometimes rainfall decreases when temperature increases?
The reason why sometimes rainfall decreases when the temperature increases is because the hotter temperature absorbs some of the rain water. This also makes for humid conditions.
When a substance loses or absorbs energy its temperature can change true or false?
Very true.
Is a bloom is a substance that absorbs light?
a bloom is a substance that absorbs light
How does the heat get in to the metal spoon?
since metal is a good conductor of heat, it absorbs the heat and the spoon increases the temperature
