Answer:
Explanation:
= Half-life of carbon = 5700 years
t = Time at which the remaining mass is to be found = 10400 years
= Initial mass of carbon = 11 g
Decay constant is given by
Amount of mass remaining is given by
The amount of the substance that remains after 10400 years is .
Answer:
0.296 J/g°C
Explanation:
Step 1:
Data obtained from the question.
Mass (M) =35g
Heat Absorbed (Q) = 1606 J
Initial temperature (T1) = 10°C
Final temperature (T2) = 165°C
Change in temperature (ΔT) = T2 – T1 = 165°C – 10°C = 155°C
Specific heat capacity (C) =..?
Step 2:
Determination of the specific heat capacity of iron.
Q = MCΔT
C = Q/MΔT
C = 1606 / (35 x 155)
C = 0.296 J/g°C
Therefore, the specific heat capacity of iron is 0.296 J/g°C
