384.72 J is the heat of fusion of the substance.

<h3>What is the heat of fusion? </h3>

It is the change in the value of the enthalpy by providing energy i.e. heat, for a specific quantity of the substance.

Given data:

Heat of fusion  =?

Mass of substance = 8.4 g

Unknown:

Amount of energy required to melt the given mass = 45.8 cal

Solution:

To solve this problem, the amount of energy required to melt the substance is given as;

H  = m L

m is the mass

L is the heat of fusion

Insert the given parameters and solve;

H  = 8.4 g  x 45.8 cal = 384.72 J

Hence, 384.72 J is the heat of fusion of the substance.

What is the unknown metal if the temperature of a beaker of 100ml of water was raised 17c to 19 c when 21 grams of the metal at
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

The metal has a heat capacity of 0.385 J/g°C

This metal is copper.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>: Data given

Mass of the metal = 21 grams

Volume of water = 100 mL

 ⇒ mass of water = density * volume = 1g/mL * 100 mL = 100 grams

Initial temperature of metal = 122.5 °C

Initial temperature of water = 17°C

Final temperature of water and the metal = 19 °C

Heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C

<u />

<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate the specific heat capacity

Heat lost by the metal = heat won by water

Qmetal = -Qwater

Q = m*c*ΔT

m(metal) * c(metal) * ΔT(metal) = - m(water) * c(water) * ΔT(water)

21 grams * c(metal) *(19-122.5) = -100 * 4.184 * (19-17)

-2173.5 *c(metal) = -836.8

c(metal) = 0.385 J/g°C

The metal has a heat capacity of 0.385 J/g°C

This metal is copper.

Which type of seismic waves produces the most severe ground movement?
Leto [7]
The surface waves are the type of seismic waves that produce the most severe ground movement. This wave is slow in nature and so produces a rolling effect similar to a surface wave in a pond. This kind of wave is far more devastating than the P waves and the S waves. The surface waves have the capacity to shake a building from side to side until it collapses. This kind of wave moves in a pattern similar to a circle. It actually originates at a point and then start moving outwards in a circle.
