specific heat of metal piece is 0.839 J/g. C.

Explanation:

As it is problem of convective heat and mass transfer, concept of energy balance can be used. The phenomenon occur here is natural. As temperature of metal is higher than that of water, so flow of temperature is from higher temperature to lower temperature, heat will flow from metal piece to water.

Data Given are as follows:

mass of piece of metal = 90 g

mass of water = 120 g

specific heat of water = 4.18  J/g.°C

specific heat of metal = ?

T metal,i = 98.6°C    ...Initial temperature of metal piece

T water,i = 24.3°C    ...Initial temperature of water

T metal ,f = 34°C      ...Initial temperature of metal piece

T water,f = 34°C       ...Initial temperature of water

ΔT water = T water,f - T water,i = 34°C - 24.3°C

ΔT metal  = T metal,i - T metal,f = 98.6°C - 34°C

It is easily understood that whatever amount of heat is liberated  by metal piece absorbed by water. Heat transfer is limited to thermal equilibrium between water and metal piece. Final condition is such that temperature of water will rise upto 34°C and temperature of metal will drop to 34°C.

Heat lost by metal = Heat gained by water

m \times cm \times T metal  =  m \times cw \times T water

Putting values in above equation,

90 \times cm \times 64.4=  120 \times 4.18 \times 9.7

90 \times cm \times 64.4=  4865.52 \\ 5796 \times cm =  4865.52 \\ cm= \frac{4865.52}{5796}  \\ cm= 0.839 J/g. C

Therefore, specific heat of metal piece is 0.839 J/g. C.

PLEASE HELP!!
omeli [17]

Answer:

8/3 hours

Explanation:

12.5/100=1/8, 1/8*2=2/8=1/4 1/4*2=1/2 1/2*2 = 1 (whole)

we multiplyed 1/8 by two three times to get 1 so 8/3 hours is the answer

match the number of negative charges to the number of positive charges to make each combination balanced (see image for answer)
BartSMP [9]

Answer : The correct match is:

1 positive charge = 1 negative charge

2 positive charges = 2 negative charges

3 positive charges = 3 negative charges

Explanation :

As we now that there are three subatomic particles which are protons, electrons and neutrons.

The protons and neutrons are located inside the nucleus and electrons are located around the nucleus.

The protons are positively charged, the electrons are negatively charged and neutrons are neutral.

As we know that all the things are made up of charges and opposite charges attract to each other.

In a neutral atom, the positive charges and negative charges are balanced in an object. That means, in neutral atom the number of positive charges are equal to the negative charges.

So we can say that:

1 positive charge = 1 negative charge

2 positive charges = 2 negative charges

3 positive charges = 3 negative charges
