When the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.

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

Specific heat capacity is the quantity of heat required to raise a unit mass of a substance by 1 kelvin.

<h3>Specific heat capacity of water and sand</h3>

Water, c = 4,200 J/kg⁰C

Sand, c = 830 J/kg⁰C

Q = mcΔθ

where;

  • Δθ is temperature change
  • Q is quantity of heat added

Δθ = Q/mc

Thus, for an equal mass of water and sand, when the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.

Calculate the atomic mass of Carbon if the two common isotopes of carbon have masses of
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Average atomic mass of carbon = 12.01 amu.

Explanation:

Given data:

Abundance of C¹² = 98.89%

Abundance of C¹³ = 1.11%

Atomic mass of C¹² = 12.000 amu

Atomic mass of C¹³ = 13.003 amu

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass of carbon = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass)  / 100

Average atomic mass of carbon = (12.000×98.89)+(13.003×1.11) /100

Average atomic mass of carbon=  1186.68 + 14.43333 / 100

Average atomic mass of carbon = 1201.11333 / 100

Average atomic mass of carbon = 12.01 amu.

Both cholesterol and oleic acid are lipids. What property do they have in common?
OLga [1]
Cholesterol and oleic acid are non-polar (hydrophobic) compounds, soluble in organic solvents. Most membrane lipids are amphipathic, having a non-polar end and a polar end. Oleic acid and other fatty acids are hydrophobic (not soluble in water).

2FeCl3 + MgO -&gt; Fe2O3 + 3MgCl2<br> Convert 3.00 moles of MgO to moles of Fe2O3
nikitadnepr [17]

71.8 g of iron (III) oxide (Fe₂O₃) were produced from 3 moles of magnesium oxide (MgO).

Explanation:

We have the following chemical reaction:

2 FeCl₃ + 3 MgO → Fe₂O₃ + 3 MgCl₂

We see from the chemical reaction that 3 moles of magnesium oxide (MgO) will produce 1 mole of iron (III) oxide (Fe₂O₃).

number of moles = mass / molar weight

mass = number of moles × molar weight

mass of Fe₂O₃ = 1 × 71.8 = 71.8 g
