To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to thermal transfer given by the thermodynamic definition of heat as a function of mass, specific heat and temperature change.

Mathematically this is equivalent to

Q = mC_p \Delta T

Where

m = mass

C_p = Specific Heat

\Delta T = Change at temperature

In mass terms (KJ / g) this can be expressed as

\frac{Q}{g} = \frac{C_p \Delta T}{m_{grams}}

Our values are given as

\Delta T = 29.8-25.25 = 4.55\°C

C_p = 31.71kJ/\°C

Replacing,

\frac{Q}{m} = \frac{(31.71kJ/\°C) (4.55\°C)}{2.599g}

\frac{Q}{m} =55.51kJ/g

Therefore the heat of combustion per gram on the material is 55.51KJ/g

Alinara [238K]
So I’m thinking C because they both have a lot to do with design here is my evidence. Structural engineering is a component of civil engineering which focuses on the design and development of infrastructures such as bridges, skyscrapers, dams. Civil engineering is a professional engineering discipline that deals with the design, construction, and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment. I may be wrong but hope this helped!

Please define the coefficient of thermal expansion?
Vikki [24]

Answer:

The coefficient of thermal expansion tells us how much a material can expand due to heat.

Explanation:

Thermal expansion occurs when a material is subjected to heat and changes it's shape, area and volume as a result of that heat. How much that material changes is dependent on it's coefficient of thermal expansion.

Different materials have different coefficients of thermal expansion (i.e. It is a material property and differs from one material to the next). It is important to understand how materials behave when heated, especially for engineering applications when a change in dimension might pose a problem or risk (eg. building large structures).
