Refer to the following table for information about gold and mercury. Then choose which statements are true about equal sample sizes of the metals.
Element specific heat density
gold 0.031 19.3
mercury 0.033 13.5
A.The mercury will change temperature at a much faster rate under the same heating conditions.
B.The two metal samples will change temperature at about the same rate.
C.The gold would float if placed in the mercury.
D.The gold would sink to the bottom if placed in the mercury.
a = false, it will take 0.031 cal to raise 1g Au 1degree while it will take 0.033 cal to raise 1g Hg 1 degree so, although Au will heat up faster, it will not be discernably faster so... b = true c = false, Au density > Hg d = true
