Kate gathered three boxes of the same size made of different materials: glass, clear plastic, and aluminum painted black. she placed them on a window sill in the sun for an hour and then measured the warmth of the air in each box. which of the following best describes the purpose of the experiment?
to relate the size of the box to the warmth of air within the box
to relate the type of box material to the warmth of air within the box
to relate the type of box material to the mass of the box
to relate the amount of time a box is exposed to sunlight to the warmth of air within the box

The energy released by a chemical reaction can be measured using a calorimeter. when barium hydroxide octahydrate crystals are reacted with dry ammonium chloride inside of a coffee cup calorimeter, the temperature of the 18.00 g of water in the calorimeter decreases from 30.0°c to 8.0°c. the equation for calculating energy absorbed or released by a reaction is: where q is the energy released or absorbed, m is the mass of water in the calorimeter, cp is the specific heat of water, and δt is the observed temperature change. if the specific heat of liquid water is 4.19 j/g·°c, how much energy was absorbed by the reaction?

Asubject in a clinical research trial experiences a serious, unanticipated adverse drug experience. how should the investigator proceed, with respect to the irb, after the discovery of the adverse event occurrence? a. do not report the adverse drug experience to the irb since it is a common adverse experience. b. report the adverse drug experience to the irb only if there are several other occurrences. c. report the adverse drug experience as part of the continuing review report. d. report the adverse drug experience in a timely manner, in keeping with the irb's policies and procedures, using the forms or the mechanism provided by the irb.

The first law of thermodynamics states that heat added to a system is neither created nor destroyed but is as it changes into other forms of energy.
