A piece of an unknown substance weighing 124.0 grams is heated in boiling water to 100.0oc. when the substance is placed in a ca

lorimeter containing 300.0 grams of water, the temperature of the water increased from 20.0oc to 26.0oc. what is the specific heat of the unknown substance, assuming all the heat is transferred to the water?

The heat cause 300g water temperature increase from 20 to 26 celcius. The heat transferred would be: 300g * (26 °C -20 °C) *4.2 joule/gram °C= 7560J

The unknown substance is added to the water, so its final temperature should be the same as the water. The calculation would be:

7560J= 124g * (100-26)* specific heat

specific heat= 7560J / 124g / 74 °C= 0.8238 J/gram °C

9. Which statement provides evidence that supports the Big Bang Theory?* 2 points
liberstina [14]

The statement the chemical makeup of the universe has changed dramatically provides evidence that supports the Big Bang Theory (Option D).

<h3>What is the Big Bang Theory?</h3>

The Big Bang Theory is a widely accepted theory in physics that states all the universe began with a huge explosion and form then matters expanded in space at the same time that it is cooling.

Therefore, with this data, we can see that the Big Bang Theory states that the chemical composition of the universe associated with hydrogen and helium modified since this explosion.
