CHECK THESE SAMPLES OF The Specific Heat Capacity of Water and Metal
Equilibrium: hot water in a cup and the cup is at the same temperature as the waterStable state: filling a birth tab with water and yet draining the tab and therefore water will flow in and out and therefore the birth tab system is in a stable state.... In this we use water to explain the difference between gas, liquid and solid, for a solid which is ice molecules vibrate and do not move freely and that ice has a distinct shape, when we melt ice we get liquid water and the molecules move freely, liquids do not have a distinct shape and will take the shape of the container....

actate dehydrogenase (LDH), transaminases, creatine phosphokinase, lysosomal enzymes, alkaline phosphatases and mixed function oxidase are the examples of organ specific biomarkers while as inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) by organophosphates and inhibition of cytochrome P monooxygenase, methallothionein and metal binding proteins by metals are some of the toxicant specific biomarkers (Mayer et al.... Biomarkers can be categorized as non-specific and specific according to their responses to a particular element or a group of environmental factors (Mayer et al....

Some of these errors can be reduced by recording several readings of the water temperature, allowing adequate time of heating of the metal by the steam do expansion and being accurate and keen whilst reading the measurements.... This is so because while metals are cooling down, tensile stress will be induced in one metal whilst compressive stress will be induced in the corresponding metal.... Tensile stress may make the subjected metal to occasion a hot crack during welding or rather a cold crack in service, otherwise the asaid stresses may be relieved mechanically or thermally....
