The identity of the metal is copper.

<h3>What is specific heat?</h3>

The amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius.

Using the formula of specific heat

H = mcdT

Where, H = Heat absorbed

m = mass of the metal

c = specific heat capacity of the metal

dT = temperature change

Putting the values in the equation

20 J = 0.0052 Kg × c × ( 40.0°C - 30.0°C)

c = 20 J/0.0052 Kg × ( 40.0°C - 30.0°C)

c = 385 JKg-1°C-1

Thus, the metal is copper.

How many moles are equal to 3.0x10^23 atoms of germanium? PLS ANSWER WITH WORK!
horrorfan [7]
1 mole=6.02 x 10^23 atoms so how many moles are there in 3.0 x 10^23 we will cross multiply, 1 x 3.0 x 10^23 / 6.02 x 10 ^23. Which will give us 0.498 moles.

Answer:

1g Hydrogen

Explanation:

<h3><u>Getting</u><u> </u><u>to</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>equation</u><u>:</u></h3>

Calcium in water reacts vigorously to give a cloudy white <em>Precipitate</em><em> </em>(compound) called Calcium hydroxide alongwith the evolution of Hydrogen gas.

\boxed{ \mathsf{Ca + H_2O \rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + H_2}}

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3><u>Balancing</u><u> </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>equation</u><u>:</u><u> </u></h3>

This reaction is not in it's balanced form! The number of atoms of Hydrogen on the left is 2 while that on the right is 4,I.e.,they're not equal.

Adding a 2 in front of H2O solves the problem by making the number of atoms of each element on both the sides equal.

\mathsf{Ca +2 H_2O \rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + H_2}

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3><u>Observations</u><u>:</u></h3>

Looking into the equation more carefully, we see:

<u><em>1</em><em> </em></u><em>atom</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Calcium</em><em> </em><em>reacts</em><em> </em><em>with</em><em> </em><em><u>2</u></em><em> </em><em>molecules</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>water</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>give</em><em> </em><u><em>1</em><em> </em></u><em>molecule</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Calcium</em><em> </em><em>Hydroxide</em><em> </em><em>alongwith</em><em> </em><em><u>1</u></em><em> </em><em>molecule</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Hydrogen</em><em> </em><em>gas</em><em>.</em>

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3><u>Gram</u><u> </u><u>atomic</u><u> </u><u>and</u><u> </u><u>molecular</u><u> </u><u>masses</u><u> </u></h3>

<u>Mass</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>one</u><u> </u><u>atom</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>Calcium</u><u> </u>= it's gram atomic mass

= 40 g

<u>Mass of one "molecule" of Hydrogen</u>

= it's Gram molecular mass

= gram mass of one atom × number of atoms in one molecule

= 1 × 2

= 2 g

So,

according to our observation:

One atoms of Calcium gives one molecule of Hydrogen <em>(during the particular reaction)</em>

=><u> 40g of Calcium gives = 2g of Hydrogen</u>

•°• 1 g of Calcium gives = \frac{2}{40}

= \frac{1}{20} g Hydrogen

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3><u>Answer</u><u>:</u></h3>

We're provided with 20g of Calcium,

=> 20g of Calcium gives = 20 × \frac{1}{20} g H2

<u>= 1 g H2</u>

_______________

To this day, scientists are interested in compressing gases other than nitrogen to extreme pressures. Which other gas does the a
myrzilka [38]

The other gas which the article mentioned is Helium gas.

<h3>What is Compression?</h3>

This refers to the squeezing or shortening of a substance which is most often done by  increasing the temperature.

The information scientists hope to gain by compressing this gas into a solid is by studying the molecular structures and using it in the production of other substances which is why Nitrogen and Helium are the gases being studied in this scenario.
