A 140 g zinc block initially at 85C is placed inside a calorimeter that has 20 g of water initially at 15C A. Which is gaining energy? which is losing energy? explain for both
B. Will the energy gained be the same as the energy lost? why?
C. Will the change in temperatures for each substance be the same? explain.
D. If thermal equilibrium block initially at 37C, verify part B by solving for energy for each substance. (round answers to the nearest or whole number)

idk heheheheh

Explanation:

metals are good conductor of electricity. it has free electrons on their surface. according to electron pool theory, each atom present in a metal crystal losses all of its valence electron and as a result a pool of free is form. these pool of electrons are free to move and   conduct electricity easily   while making metal as good conductor.

the correct answer is a. the ability of electrons to flow throughout the metal.
