Suppose you had four spoons the same size and shape made out of glass, plastic, steel, and wood. Which spoon handle would get hot the quickest when the spoons are placed in a pan of hot water? Question 14 options:

A. steel spoon

B. plastic spoon

C. wood spoon

D. glass spoon

A. steel spoon

Explanation:

A steel spoon will get hot the quickest from the different given spoon. This is because steel is predominantly made up of a metal which shows metallic properties such as heat conduction.

Other properties originating from metallic bonds are ductility, malleability, luster etc.  

answer: enthalpy

explanation:

for a exothermic reaction, the energy is released i.e. the energy of the products is lower than the energy of the reactants.

= enthaply

= energy of products

= energy of reactants

as , thus comes out to be negative. negative value of enthalpy shows that the reaction is exothermic.
