An ice cube is placed in 80 mL of 70oC water. When the ice melts the temperature of the water is 60oC. a. How much energy was needed to melt the ice? Show the steps of how you figured this out b. Use the information on page D-50 to explain how the ice melts. Include information about the energy transfers.

800 degrees C g, I found this answer by using the formula to find how much energy was need to melt the ice. First you figure out the temperature change of ur ice (starting temp and ur final temp), and then you times that with the mass of the water.

the tides are influenced by both the moon and the sun, it's easy to see that when the sun lines up with the moon and the earth, as during a new moon or full moon, the tidal effect is increased. these are known as spring tides, named not for the season, but for the fact that the water "springs" higher than normal. on the other hand, if the sun and the moon are 90 degrees apart in relation to an observer on earth as during the first quarter moon or third quarter moon, then high tides are not as high as they normally would be. this is because despite its greater distance, the sun's mass allows it to exert enough gravitational force on the oceans that it can negate some of the effects of the moon's pull. this phenomenon of lower high tides is called a neap tide. if you need more information on this topic visit moonconnection.com.
