A metal object with mass of 22.7 g is heated to 97.0 ∘C and then transferred to an insulated container containing 84.7 g of wate

r at 20.5 ∘C. The water temperature rises and the temperature of the metal object falls until they both reach the same final temperature of 24.3 ∘C. What is the specific heat of this metal object? Assume that all the heat lost by the metal object is absorbed by the water.

The specific heat of the metal object with a mass of 22.7g heated to to temperature of 97.0°C and then transferred to an insulated container containing 84.7 g of water at 20.5 ∘C is 0.815J/g°C

How to calculate specific heat?

The specific heat capacity of a metal can be calculated using the calorimetry equation as follows:

Q = mc∆T

Where;

Q = quantity of heat absorbed

m = mass of substance

c = specific heat capacity

∆T = change in temperature

mc∆T (water) = -mc∆T (metal)

84.7 × 4.18 × 3.8 = - (22.7 × c × -72.7)

1345.375 = 1650.29c

c = 0.815J/g°C

Therefore, the specific heat of the metal object with a mass of 22.7g heated to to temperature of 97.0°C and then transferred to an insulated container containing 84.7 g of water at 20.5 ∘C is 0.815J/g°C.

As the tempreture of a liquid increases the solubility of a liquid of that liquid
anzhelika [568]
As the temperature increases, the solubility of the solute in the liquid also increases.  This is due to the fact that the increase in energy allows the liquid to more effectively break up the solute.  The additoin of energy also shifts the equilibrium of the reation to the right since it takes energy to dissolve most things and you are adding more of it (this is explained with Le Chatlier principles).

I hope this helps and also I assumed that your question involved the solubility of an ionic substance in a solvent like water.  If that was not your question feel free to say so in the comments so that I can answer your actually question.

What should be the temperature of the solvent before adding it to the sample to be recrystallized?
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Near the boiling point of the solvent

Explanation:

The process of recrystallization is hinged on the fact that the amount of solute that can be dissolved by a solvent increases with temperature. The process involves creation of a solution by dissolving a solute in a solvent at or near its boiling point.  At the boiling point of the solvent, the solute has a greater solubility in the solvent; not much volume of  the hot solvent is required to dissolve the solute.

Before the solution is later cooled, you can now filter out insoluble impurities from the hot solvent. The quantity of the original solute drops appreciably because impurities have been removed. At this lower temperature, the solution becomes saturated and the solute can no longer be held in solution hence it forms pure crystals of solute, which can be recovered.

Recrystallization must be carried out using the proper solvent. The solute must be relatively insoluble in the solvent at room temperature but more soluble in the solvent at elevated temperature.

lakkis [162]
Hello,

The answer is option C protons and neutrons.

Reason:

The middle of the nucleus contains the protons and the neutrons which contain the positive and electrical charges which decides the element which means option C will be your answer.

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

An object has a mass of 6.8 g and volume of 34 mL. What is the density of the object?​
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

<h2>Density = 0.2 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

<h3>Density =  \frac{mass}{volume}</h3>

From the question the points are

mass = 6.8 g

volume = 34 mL

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve

That's

<h3>Density =  \frac{6.8}{34}</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>Density = 0.2 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
