Hope this helps!
Scientific method
Explanation:
The scientific method is the name of the process scientists use to gain knowledge about the physical world.
The scientific method is a systematic approach into the study of nature. It follows the following processes:
- Detailed observation
- Asking of question
- Formulation of hypothesis
- Experimentation
- Analysis and interpretation
- Conclusion

<u>Answer:</u> The specific heat of metal is 0.821 J/g°C
<u>Explanation:</u>
When metal is dipped in water, the amount of heat released by metal will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by water.

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

......(1)
where,
q = heat absorbed or released
= mass of metal = 30 g
= mass of water = 100 g
= final temperature = 25°C
= initial temperature of metal = 110°C
= initial temperature of water = 20.0°C
= specific heat of metal = ?
= specific heat of water = 4.186 J/g°C
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
![30\times c_1\times (25-110)=-[100\times 4.186\times (25-20)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=30%5Ctimes%20c_1%5Ctimes%20%2825-110%29%3D-%5B100%5Ctimes%204.186%5Ctimes%20%2825-20%29%5D)

Hence, the specific heat of metal is 0.821 J/g°C
Remember: energy is conserved in a chemical reaction (visualize the reaction and question whether heat lies on reactant side (left) or product side (right))
-exothermic- heat is released (heat is on the product side)
>forming an ionic lattice (SALT)- mixture of Na and Cl results in a more stable ionic lattice, causing this reaction to be exothermic
>burning wood
-endothermic- heat is absorbed (heat is on the reactant side)
