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.

How many liters of hydrogen gas is produced from 3.712 g of magnesium with 104.2ml of 1.385 mol/L HCL (aq) at SATP? Please show
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

V=1.61L

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

Mg+2HCl\rightarrow MgCl_2+H_2

Next, we compute the reacting moles of each reactants:

n_{Mg}=3.712gMg*\frac{1molMg}{24.305 gMg}=0.153molMg

n_{HCl}=1.385\frac{molHCl}{L}*0.1042L=0.144molHCl

Then, as magnesium and hydrohloric acid are in a 1:2 molar ratio 0.153 moles of magnesium will completely react with 0.306 moles of hydrochloric acid yet we only have 0.144 moles, therefore, limiting reactant is hydrochloric acid. Thus, we compute the produced moles of hydrogen:

n_{H_2}=0.144molHCl*\frac{1molH_2}{2molHCl} =0.072molH_2

Finally, we use the ideal gas equation with T=298K and 1atm (STP conditions) to compute the liters of hydrogen gas:

PV=nRT\\\\V=\frac{nRT}{P}=\frac{0.072mol*0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*273K}{1atm}\\  \\V=1.61L

Best regards.

Which of the following is a unit of density? = Mass / volume
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we should first recall possible units for mass and volume.  Mass can be represented with units of grams, kilograms, etc.  Volume has units of cubic meters, cubic centimeters, etc.

Therefore, since we know that density is mass divided by volume, the only answer that makes sense here is C. grams per cubic centimeter (where per signifies that grams are being divided by cubic centimeters).

Hope this helps!

What is a general representation of a secondary amine?
Makovka662 [10]

Amines are organic compound obtained from ammonia by replacement of one or more hydrogen atoms by organic groups. If one of the 'H' atom of NH3 is replace by R = alkyl group, they are referred as primary amine. If two 'H' atoms of NH3 are replace by same or different alkyl group, they are referred as secondary amine.
