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}.

Is it possible to transfer heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer is: B.) Yes, if work is done, this transfer process can take place.

For example,  air conditioner involves a cyclic process that transfers heat from a cold reservoir to a hot reservoir, but with use of electricity.

Thermal conductuction is the transfer of heat through physical contact. Thermal conduction is the transfer of heat by microscopic collisions of particles. Heat spontaneously flows from a hotter to a colder body.

The process of heat conduction depends on four basic factors: the temperature gradient, the cross section of the materials involved, their path length and the properties of those materials.

Answer:

m_{Sn}=630.57gSn

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the chemical reaction:

SnO_2+2H_2\rightarrow Sn+2H_2O

We can evidence the 2:1 mole ratio between hydrogen and tin, thus, we perform the following stoichiometric setup to obtain the mass of produced tin:

m_{Sn}=21.46gH_2*\frac{1molH_2}{2.02gH_2}*\frac{1molSn}{2molH_2} *\frac{118.71gSn}{1molSn} \\\\m_{Sn}=630.57gSn

Best regards!

None of the given molecules display much solubility in water at room temperature. However, two of the molecules display apprecia
Liono4ka [1.6K]

2-naphthol, based on its structure will be least soluble in water.

2-Naphthol, or β-naphthol, is a fluorescent, colorless (or occasionally yellow) crystalline solid with the formula C10H7OH. It is an isomer of 1-naphthol, differing by the location of the hydroxyl group on the naphthalene ring. The naphthols are naphthalene homologues of phenol, but more reactive. Both isomers are soluble in simple alcohols, ethers, and chloroform. 2-Naphthol is a widely used intermediate for the production of dyes and other compounds.
