Ametal spoon sits in a pot of boiling water. the spoon becomes warm. which types of heat transfer contribute to the increase in temperature of the spoon? convection and radiation
convection and conduction
radiation and conduction
radiation only

Your answer is B. convection and conduction 
The spoon gets hot because metals are good conductors . Meaning that heat, cold, electricity move through them, certain metals are better than others. Even a wood spoon will conduct if it is soaked in water, of course in this case the water is the conductor.

Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When a fluid is heated then cooler material (more dense) sinks at the bottom whereas warm material (less dense) rises at the top. This process of exchange of materials is known as convection process.

For example, boiling of water in a pot represents convection process.

Whereas when two objects of different temperature are kept adjacent to each other then transfer of heat occurs from hotter to colder object.

For example, a metal spoon placed in a boiling water represents conduction process.

Thus, we can conclude that convection and conduction is the type of heat transfer that contribute to the increase in temperature of the spoon.

= 3.2 moles

Explanation:

The molar mass of Lithium oxide is 29.88 g/mol

Number of moles is given by the formula;

Moles = mass/Molar mass

          = 95.62 g / 29.88 g/mol

          = 3.2 moles Li2O
