Answer:

c. Einstein

Explanation:

Einstein is most credited with the idea that a quantum of light (photon) can act as a particle. He proposed that light behave as photons or quantum of energy and used it to explain the Photoelectric Effect for which he received the Noble prize. Prior to that light was believed to behave as a wave or electromagnetic radiation only. However, photoelectric effect showed that light has particle nature as well.

Answer:

29.256 torr.

Explanation:

Number of moles

Glycerin:

Molecular weight of glycerin = (12*3) + (1*8) + (16*3)

= 36 + 8 + 48

= 92 g/mol

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 25.2/92

= 0.274 mol

Water:

Converting g/ml to g/l,

1000 ml = 1 l

= 1 g/ml * 1000 ml/1l

= 1000 g/l

Mass = (density * volume)

= 1000*0.124

= 124 g.

Molar mass of water = (1*2) + 16

= 18 g/mol

Number of moles = mass /molar mass

= 126/18

= 6.89 mol

P°solution = xsolvent * P°solvent

Where,

xwater = xsolvent = mole fraction of water.

Mole fraction is defined as the number of moles of a component of a solution divided by the total number of moles present in that solution.

xwater = mole of water/total mole of solution

Total mole = 6.89 + 0.274

= 7.164 moles

xwater = 6.89/7.164

= 0.962

P°solution = xsolvent * P°solvent

P°solution = 31.8 * 0.962

= 29.256 torr

1. A 250g chunk of metal is heated with 400 joules of energy and the temperature goes from 20 °C to 25°C. What is its specific h

Paha777 [63]

The specific heat capacity of this chunk of metal is equal to 0.32 J/g°C.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Mass of metal = 250g

Quantity of energy = 400 Joules

Initial temperature = 20°C

Final temperature = 20°C

To determine the specific heat capacity of this chunk of metal:

<h3>The formula for quantity of heat.</h3>

Mathematically, quantity of heat is given by the formula;

$Q = mc\theta$

<u>Where:</u>

Q represents the quantity of heat.

m represents the mass of an object.

c represents the specific heat capacity.

∅ represents the change in temperature.

Making c the subject of formula, we have:

$c = \frac{Q}{m\theta}$

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

$c = \frac{400}{250 \times (25-20)}\\\\c = \frac{400}{250 \times 5}\\\\c = \frac{400}{1250 }$

Specific heat, c = 0.32 J/g°C.
