Answer:
This metal could be the aluminium with a specific heat of
Explanation:
A pie of unknown metal presents a mass (M) of 348 g. This metal is heated using energy (E) of 6.64 kJ and the temperature increases from T1 =24.4 to T2 =43.6°C. We can calculate the specific heat (H) of this metal as follows
We can replace previously presented data in this equation. After simplifying and converting to adequated units, we found that
Finally, the specific heat of this metal is
The aluminium could be the metal, its specific heat is similar to that found in this problem.
Finally, we can conclude that this metal could be the aluminium with a specific heat of
Boiling point of a compound is determined by the strength of intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules present in it. Stronger the intermolecular forces of attraction, higher will be the boiling point.
Ionic compounds show ion-ion interactions which are the strongest among all. Ion-dipole interactions are shown when ionic solutes are dissolved in polar solvents. Hydrogen bonding is also a relatively stronger force that is present between H atom and an electronegative atom like F, O and N() . All polar molecules show dipole-dipole interaction (
and
). Dispersion forces are the weakest intermolecular forces due to momentary dipoles between electron clouds and nucleus.
Among the given compounds, has dispersion forces as the major intermolecular forces of attraction. So they they exhibit the weakest IMF, hence have the lowest boiling point.
