Taking into account the definition of calorimetry, sensible heat and latent heat, the specific heat capacity of the material is 0.203 \frac{calories}{gC}.

<h3>Calorimetry</h3>

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

Sensible heat is defined as the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state (phase change).

The amount of heat a body receives or transmits is determined by:

Q = c× m× ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

<h3>Specific heat capacity of the material</h3>

In this case, you know:

  • Q= 1220 calories
  • c= ?
  • m= 100 g
  • ΔT=Tfinal - Tinitial= 80 C - 20 C= 60 C

Replacing in the definition of amount of heat:

1220 calories= c× 100 g× 60 C

Solving:

c= 1220 calories÷ (100 g× 60 C)

<u><em>c= 0.203 </em></u>\frac{calories}{gC}

Finally, the specific heat capacity of the material is 0.203 \frac{calories}{gC}.

<span>When cooking frozen cheese ravioli, you should use three quarts of water instead of one so that the raviolis have room to move around in the boiling water and so that while they are moving around, they will not stick to each other or the pan.</span>

As a scuba diver descends under water, the pressure increases. At a total air pressure of 2.71 atm and a temperature of 25.0 C,
Semenov [28]

Answer:

1.32\times 10^{-3} mol/Lis the solubility of nitrogen gas in a diver's blood.

Explanation:

Henry's law states that the amount of gas dissolved or molar solubility of gas is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the liquid.

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

C_{N_2}=K_H\times p_{liquid}

where,

K_H = Henry's constant = 6.26 \times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm

p_{N_2} = partial pressure of nitrogen

p_{N_2}= P\times \chi_{N_2} (Raoult's law)

=2.71 atm\times 0.78=2.1138 atm

C_{N_2}=6.26 \times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm\times 2.1138 atm

C_{N_2}=1.32\times 10^{-3} mol/L

1.32\times 10^{-3} mol/Lis the solubility of nitrogen gas in a diver's blood.
