Is the specific heat capacity of a substance an intensive or extensive property? Explain.

The specific heat capacity is intensive, and does not depend on the quantity.

We can categorize a property of the compound as either intensive or extensive when defining a particular aspect of it. The extent of a drug or compound is a quality that is influenced by the sample size used. However, the intense property is independent of the quantity (we can say that it is independent on the amount of the sample used). One such example of an intensive property is density.

The specific heat capacity of a substance or a compound describes the amount of heat (in Joules) needed to increase the temperature of one gram of the substance by 1 unit.

The specific heat capacity is independent on the amount of substance used, therefore, it is classified as an intensive property of a substance. The specific heat capacity will not depend on the mass of the given substance and it will be a constant value for each substance.

So the specific heat capacity is intensive, and does not depend on the quantity, but the heat capacity is extensive, so two grams of liquid water have twice the heat capacitance of 1 gram, but the specific heat capacity, the heat capacity per gram, is the same, 4.184 (J/g.K).

Explain how stagnant sulfureted water may greatly accelerate metallic corrosion. (See the Email Link in Moodle) | (7 marks)
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

sulfur promotes oxide-reduction reactions.

Explanation:

In stagnant water, some solutes tend to precipitate. When Sulfur precipitate and touch a metal, Sulfur is being reduced and the metal is oxidated. This depends of potential redox of each element.

An organic compound absorbs strongly in the IR at 1687 cm1. Its 'H NMR spectrum consists of two signals, a singlet at 2.1 ppm an
tatuchka [14]

This question does not contain the structures of the molecules. The structures in Daylight SMILES format are:

I. C1=CC=CC=C1C(=O)C

II. C1=CC=CC=C1CC=O

III. C1=CC(C)=CC=C1C=O

IV. C1=CC=CC=C1CCC

V. C1=CC=CC=C1C(C)C

The structures are also attached

Answer:

The structure of compound IV is consistent with the information obtained analysis

Proposed structures for the ions with m/z values of 120, 105,77 and 43 are (also attached):

C1=CC=CC=C1C(=[OH0+])C |^1:7|

C1C([CH0+]=O)=CC=CC=1

C1[CH0+]=CC=CC=1

C(#[OH0+])C

respectively

Explanation:

The IR peak at 1687 cm⁻¹ is indicative of an α unsaturated carbonyl carbon. While the 1H NMR singlet is of the methyl group next to carbonyl and the multiplet near 7.1 ppm is a characteristic peak of benzene. This data shows points towards structure I.

Mass spectrum peak at 120 m/z is of molecular ion peak. In the case of carbonyl-containing molecule, this peak is observable. The signal at 105 shows the loss of a methyl group next to the carbonyl. m/z value of 77 is the characteristic cationic peak of benzene, while the peak at 43 infers the formation of acylium ion (RCO+) due to α-cleavage. All this data agrees with the structure of acetophenone (Structure 1)

A rock falls off a cliff and hits the ground after three seconds. What is its velocity right before it hits the ground?
Amiraneli [1.4K]
To solve this kinematics formula use the following equation:

Vf = Vi + at
Vf = 0 + (9.81 m/s^2)(3 seconds)
Vf = 29.43 m/s and or about 29.4 m/s of reported to 3 significant figures.
