aluminum has a specific heat of 0.902 j/g x oc. two pieces of aluminum, with masses of 10 kg, cool from 400 oc to 100oc. one mass is round; the other is a cube. all but one statement is true regarding the energy transformation. that is
a) both masses lose the same amount of heat energy.
b) the masses cool in approximately the same amount of time.
c) the heat energy lost is directly related to the shape of the object.
d) the kinetic energies of the masses decrease during the cooling process.

[05.02] what is the best explanation of the kinetic molecular theory as it relates to the energy of the molecules in the states of matter? (1 point) the molecules in a gas have greater kinetic energy than those in a liquid, which in turn have greater kinetic energy than the molecules in a solid. kinetic energy cannot be created nor destroyed, and, as a result, all states of matter have the same kinetic energy. the molecules in a gas have greater kinetic energy; therefore, they are more tightly packed than the molecules in either a liquid or a solid. the molecules in gases and liquids, in constant motion, have greater kinetic energy than those in a solid, which do not move or vibrate because their position is fixed.
