Answer: c = 710 J/kg°C or 0.71 J/g°C

Explanation: Heat is expressed in the formula Q = mc∆T. Derive to find the specific heat c. So the formula will become c = Q / m∆T

c = Q / m∆T

= 42600 J / 2 kg ( 55°C - 25°C )

= 710 J /kg°C

Or can be expressed by converting kg to g.

c = 0.71 J /g°C

Answer:

The heat capacity of carbon is 710 J/kg°C

Explanation:

Given;

Mass (m) = 2.0 Kg

T₁ = 25°C , T₂ = 55°C       ∴ Θ = T₂ - T₁ = 55°C - 25°C ==> 30°C

Energy absorbed (E) = 42,600 J

Heat Capacity (C) = ?

heat equation => E = m*C*Θ

Making "c" the subject, the equation becomes

C = E / mΘ

C = \frac{42,600}{2 (30)}

C = 710 J /kg°C

A race car travels on a circular track at an average rate of 125 mi/h. The radius of the track is 0.320 miles. What is the centr
IRISSAK [1]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<em><u> = 48,828.125 mi/hr²</u></em>

<h3><u>Explanation and solution</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Centripetal acceleration is the rate of change of angular velocity. Centripetal acceleration occurs towards the center of the circular path along the radius of the circular path</u></em>.
  • Centripetal acceleration is given by; <em>V²/r ; </em>

<em>V = 125 mi/h and r = 0.320 miles </em>

  • <em>Thus; centripetal acceleration = 125²/0.320 </em>

                                                  =15625/0.320

                                                 <em><u> = 48,828.125 mi/hr²</u></em>

Consider the insoluble compound nickel(II) hydroxide , Ni(OH)2 . The nickel ion also forms a complex with cyanide ions . Write a
natali 33 [55]

Answer: Equilibrium constant for this reaction is 2.8 \times 10^{15}.

Explanation:

Chemical reaction equation for the formation of nickel cyanide complex is as follows.

Ni(OH)_{2}(s) + 4CN^{-}(aq) \rightleftharpoons [Ni(CN)_{4}^{2-}](aq) + 2OH^{-}(aq)

We know that,

      K = K_{f} \times K_{sp}

We are given that, K_{f} = 1.0 \times 10^{31}

and,    K_{sp} = 2.8 \times 10^{-16}

Hence, we will calculate the value of K as follows.

     K = K_{f} \times K_{sp}

     K = (1.0 \times 10^{31}) \times (2.8 \times 10^{-16})

        = 2.8 \times 10^{15}

Thus, we can conclude that equilibrium constant for this reaction is 2.8 \times 10^{15}.

Why can't the reaction, ZnCl2 + H2 → Zn + 2HCI, occur naturally?
Llana [10]

Answer:

It is fairly obvious that zinc metal reacts with aqueous hydrochloric acid! The bubbles are hydrogen gas. ... In fact, electrons are being transferred from the zinc atoms to the hydrogen atoms (which ultimately make a molecule of diatomic hydrogen), changing the charges on both elements.

In the Haber reaction, patented by German chemist Fritz Haber in 1908, dinitrogen gas combines with dihydrogen gas to produce ga
Reptile [31]

Answer:

The rate at which ammonia is being produced is 0.41 kg/sec.

Explanation:

N_2+3H_2\rightarrow 2NH_3 Haber reaction

Volume of dinitrogen consumed in a second = 505 L

Temperature at which reaction is carried out,T= 172°C = 445.15 K

Pressure at which reaction is carried out, P = 0.88 atm

Let the moles of dinitrogen be n.

Using an Ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.88 atm\times 505 L}{0.0821 atm l/mol K\times 445.15 K}=12.1597 mol

According to reaction , 1 mol of ditnitrogen gas produces 2 moles of ammonia.

Then 12.1597 mol of dinitrogen will produce :

\frac{2}{1}\times 12.1597 mol=24.3194 mol of ammonia

Mass of 24.3194 moles of ammonia =24.3194 mol × 17 g/mol

=413.43 g=0.41343 kg ≈ 0.41 kg

505 L of dinitrogen are consumed in 1 second to produce 0.41 kg of ammonia in 1 second. So the rate at which ammonia is being produced is 0.41 kg/sec.
