Specific heat is the amount of heat absorb or released by a substance to change the temperature to one degree Celsius. To determine the specific heat, we use the expression for the heat absorbed by the system. Heat gained or absorbed in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is expressed as follows:

Heat = mC(T2-T1)

By substituting the given values, we can calculate for C which is the specific heat of the material.

2510 J = .158 kg ( 1000 g / 1 kg) (C) ( 61.0 - 32.0 °C)
C = 0.5478 J / g °C

Which is stronger - the attractive forces between water molecules and chromium and chloride ions, or the combined ionic bond str
Tju [1.3M]

Answer is: the combined ionic bond strength of CrCl₂ and intermolecular forces between water molecules.

When chromium chloride (CrCl₂) is dissolved in water, the temperature of the water increases, heat of the solution is endothermic.

Dissociation of chromium chloride in water: CrCl₂(aq) → Cr²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq).

Energy (the lattice energy) is required to pull apart the oppositely charged ions in chromium chloride.

The heat of hydration is liberated energy when the separated ions (in this example chromium cations and chlorine anions) attract polar water molecules.

Because the lattice energy is higher than the heat of the hydration (endothermic reaction), we can conclude that bonds between ions are strong (the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions).

The partial pressure of hellium gas in a gaseous mixture of hellium and hydrogen is<br>​
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The partial pressure of helium gas in a gaseous mixture of helium and hydrogen is the pressure that the helium would exert in the absence of the hydrogen. equal to the total pressure divided by helium's molar mass. O equal to the total pressure divided by the number of helium atoms present.

The diagram below shows the different phase transitions that occur in matter.
solmaris [256]

Answer:

# 5

Explanation:

The question describes silver being "poured" into a mold and cools to become a solid bar. This is the phase of liquid to solid. When a element cools down below it's freezing points to become a solid.

<u>Liquid to Solid Definition:</u>

Freezing, or solidification, is a phase transition in which a liquid turns into a solid when its temperature is lowered to or below its freezing point. All known liquids, except helium, freeze when the temperature is low enough.
