<h3>Answer:</h3>

0.89 J/g°C

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept tested: Quantity of heat

We are given;

  • Mass of the aluminium sample is 120 g
  • Quantity of heat absorbed by aluminium sample is 9612 g
  • Change in temperature, ΔT = 115°C - 25°C

                                                      = 90°C

We are required to calculate the specific heat capacity;

  • We need to know that the quantity of heat absorbed is calculated by the product of mass, specific heat capacity and change in temperature.

That is;

Q = m × c × ΔT

  • Therefore, rearranging the formula we can calculate the specific heat capacity of Aluminium.

Specific heat capacity, c = Q ÷ mΔT

                                         = 9612 J ÷ (120 g × 90°C)

                                         = 0.89 J/g°C

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of Aluminium is  0.89 J/g°C

How many total electrons does the P^3- ion have? O a. 3 O b. 31 O c.1 O d. 15 O e. 18
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

e. 18

Explanation:

A neutral P atom has an atomic number of 15, which means there are 15 protons in the atom. In order to be neutral, the P atom must also have 15 electrons.

The P³⁻ anion has 3 electrons more than the neutral P atom since it has a charge of -3.

Thus, the total number of electrons are 15 + 3 = 18 electrons.
