Answer:
c = 0.13 j/ g.°C
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of mercury = 29.5 g
Initial temperature = 32°C
Final temperature = 161°C
Heat absorbed = 499.2 j
Solution:
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
Q = m.c. ΔT
ΔT = T2 - T1
ΔT = 161°C - 32°C
ΔT = 129 °C
Q = m.c. ΔT
c = Q / m. ΔT
c = 499.2 j / 29.5 g. 129 °C
c = 499.2 j / 3805.5 g. °C
c = 0.13 j/ g.°C
To determine the shapes of molecules, we must become acquainted with the Lewis electron dot structure. Although the Lewis theory does not determine the shapes of molecules, it is the first step in predicting shapes of molecules. The Lewis structure helps us identify the bond pairs and the lone pairs.
