8 0

Explanation:

Heat energy lost by metal = Heat energy gained by water.

(0.00138kg) * c * (99.6-31.6) = (0.006050kg) * 4.148 * (31.6-22.1)

c = 2.541J/kg°C

If the starting volume of a hot air balloon is 55,500 m3and the initial temperature is 21 °C, what is the temperature inside the
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

T₂ = 392 K

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume of the hot air balloon, V₁ = 55500 m³

Initial temperature, T₁ = 21°C = 294 K

Final volume, V₂ = 74000 m³

We need to find the final temperature inside the balloon. The relation between the temperature and volume is given by charles law i.e.

\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}

Where

T₂ is the final temperature

So,

\dfrac{V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{V_2}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{T_1V_2}{V_1}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{294\times 74000 }{55500 }\\\\T_2=392\ K

So, the new temperature is 392 K.

Using VSEPR theory which of the following would be the correct shape for nitrogen trifluoride?
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

trigonal pyramidal

Explanation:

In NF3, the nitrogen atom is sp3 hybridized. Now we must remember that according to the VSEPR theory, the number of electron pairs in the valence shell of the central atom in a molecule determines its shape.

Here, the nitrogen atom is the central atom and its outermost shell is surrounded by four electron pairs - one lone pair and three bond pairs. This means that it has a tetrahedral electron pair geometry.

However, due to the lone pair, the three fluorine atoms are arranged in a  trigonal pyramidal geometry. Hence the correct shape of the molecule is trigonal pyramidal.
