A 200-gram liquid sample of Alcohol Y is prepared at -6°C. The sample is then added to 400 g of water at 20°C in a sealed styrof

oam container. When thermal equilibrium is reached, the temperature of the alcohol-water solution is 12°C. What is the specific heat capacity of the alcohol? Assume the sealed container is an isolated system. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.19 kJ/kg · °C. 3.14 kJ/kg \xe2\x88\x99 °C 4.14 kJ/kg \xe2\x88\x99 °C 3.72 kJ/kg \xe2\x88\x99 °C 4.88 kJ/kg \xe2\x88\x99 °C

The specific heat capacity of the alcohol will be 3.72  kJ/kg°C.

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

The amount of heat required to increase a substance's temperature by one degree Celsius is known as its "specific heat capacity."

Similarly, heat capacity is the relationship between the amount of energy delivered to a substance and the increase in temperature that results.

Given data;

Mass of liquid sample of Alcohol  m₁ = 200-gram

The temperature of alcohol, T₁ =  -6°C.

Mass of liquid sample of water  m₂ = 400-gram

The temperature of the water, T₂=  20°C.

The specific heat capacity of the alcohol, S₁=?

The specific heat capacity of water is, S₂=4.19 kJ/kg.°C

As we know that;

<h3 />

\rm Q_{gain}= Q{loss} \\\\ Q_{alcohol} =Q_{water} \\\\\ m_1s_1\triangle T_1 = m_2S_2 \triangle S_2 \\\\ 200 \times 10^{-3} \times S_1 [ (12-(-6) ] = 40 \times 10^{-3} \times 4.19 \times 10^{-3} \times (20-12)\\\\S_1 = 2 \times 4.19 \times 10^3 \times \frac {8}{18} \\\\ S_1 = 3.72  \ kJ /kg ^0 C

Hence the specific heat capacity of the alcohol will be 3.72  kJ/kg°C.

Know the monosaccharides, the disaccharides and the polysaccharides. Know the hormones involved in glucose regulation.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

Explanation:

Monosaccharides are the simplest form of carbohydrates which are called as single sugars. These are the building blocks of bigger carbohydrates.

Disaccharides are the sugars that are formed when two monosaccharides combine together by glycosidic bonds.

Polysaccharides are the long chains of carbohydrate molecules. These are formed by the monosaccharide units bonded by the glycosidic linkages.

The insulin and glucagon are the two hormones secreted by the pancreas that regulate the blood glucose levels. Insulin is secreted by the beta cells of pancreas. It is secreted when the blood glucose level is high. Glucagon is secreted by the beta cells of pancreas when the blood glucose level is low.

OLga [1]

Answer:20°

Explanation:

Recall

Range R of a projectile is given by U^2sin2A/g

We're U = velocity,A= angle of projection and g is acceleration due to gravity

From the question the range R are the same

Hence R1=R2

U1^2sin2A/g=U2^2sin2B/g

But U1=U2 and g=g

Hence sin2A=sin 2B

Sin 2*70= sin2*B

0.6427=sin2B

B=sin inverse(0.6427)=40/2=20°
