Why does galium melt

Chemistry
1 answer:
levacccp [35]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Like most other metals, Gallium is solid at room temperature (or liquid if it is too hot in your room). But, if it is held [in hands] for long enough, it melts in your hands, and doesn't poison you like Mercury would. This is because of its unusually low melting point of (~29 degree Centigrade).

- It melts once it reaches its melting point.

How much heat is absorbed by 15.5g of water when it's temperature is increased from 20.0C the specific heat of the water is 4.18
Anuta_ua [19.1K]
Hello!

The exercise doesn't say the final temperature, but we are going to assume that the increase is of 20 °C (The procedure is the same, just change the final temperature) To calculate the heat absorbed by water, we need to use the equation for Heat Transfer, in the following way (assuming that the heat increase is 20°C):

Q=m*C* \Delta T=15,5 g * 4,184 (J/g^\circ C) * 20 ^\circ C=1297,04 J

So, the Heat absorbed by water is 1297,04 J

Have a nice day!
