The specific heat of water is 1 calorie/°C-gram, and the specific heat of a metal is about 0.1 calorie/°C-gram. If the same amount of heat
energy is applied to the same mass of water and the metal, which is the correct comparison of the changes in temperature?
A. The increase in temperature will be about 10 times greater in the metal than the water.
B. The increase in temperature will be about 0.1 times as great in the metal as the water.
c. The temperature of the water will increase and the temperature of the metal will decrease.
D. The temperature increase will be the same, but will be faster in the water.

In the derivation of rrkm theory, a factor of 1/2 is introduced when equalizing the rates of formation and decomposition of activated complex as keal-hr) = ko this is clearly against the assumption of transition state theory that states all the activated complex in the transition state iss going to the product. find the reason why this factor is introduced here.

Suppose that two tanks, 1 and 2, each with a large opening at the top, contain different liquids. a small hole is made in the side of each tank at the same depth 1.57 m below the liquid surface, but the hole in tank 2 has 2.49 times the cross-sectional area of the hole in tank 1. (a) what is the ratio ρ1/ρ2 of the densities of the liquids if the mass flow rate is the same for the two holes? (b) what is the ratio rv1/rv2 of the volume flow rates from the two tanks? (c) at one instant, the liquid in tank 1 is 14.9 cm above the hole. if the tanks are to have equal volume flow rates, what height above the hole must the liquid in tank 2 be just then?
