Which statement best defines specific heat?

Chemistry
1 answer:
PolarNik [594]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

D. The amount of heat required to increase the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1 °C.

Explanation:

Specific heat is defined as the amount of heat needed to raise a unit of mass of a compound by one degree on the temperature scale.

The gram is constituted as a unit of mass, and the degree Celsius as a unit of temperature, therefore, the specific heat can be defined as the amount of heat required to increase the temperature of 1 g of a substance by 1 °C.

The concentration of CI ion in a sample of H,0 is 15.0 ppm. What mass of CI ion is present in 240.0 mL of H,0, which has a densi
Doss [256]

Answer:

Mass of solute = 0.0036 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Concentration of Cl⁻ = 15.0 ppm

Volume of water = 240 mL

Mass of Cl⁻ present = ?

Solution:

1 mL = 1 g

240 mL = 240 g

Formula:

ppm = mass of solute / mass of sample ×1,000,000

by putting values,

15.0 ppm = (mass of solute / 240 g) ×1,000,000

Mass of solute = 15.0 ppm ×  240 g / 1,000,000

Mass of solute = 0.0036 g

Epsom salt, a common hydrate, has the formula shown below. If I measure out 125 g of epsom salt to add to my foot soak, what mas
tatiyna

Answer:

The answer to your question is 64.02 g of H₂O

Explanation:

Data

Mass of magnesium sulfate hepta hydrated = 125 g

Mass of water = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of the salt and the molar mass of water

molar mass of MgSO₄ 7H₂O = 24 + 32 + 64 + 14 + 112 = 246 g

mass of H₂O = 2 + 16 = 18 g

2.- Use proportions to calculate the mass of water in the epsom salt

                246 g MgSO₄ 7H₂O------------------------- 126 g of H₂O

                125 g                        -------------------------   x

                x = (125 x 126)/246

                x = 15750/246

               x = 64.02 g of H₂O
