In order to determine the heat absorbed or given by a metal it is important to determine the heat loss or gained by calorimeter

If we dip a hot metal piece in a calorimeter, it will lose energy which will be absorbed by calorimeter

The heat absorbed by calorimeter = heat loss by metal

the heat absorbed by calorimeter = heat capacity of calorimter X change in temperature

so we should have the value of heat absorbed by calorimeter which will be equal to the heat loss by metal

heat loss by metal = mass of metal X specific heat of metal X change in temperature

thus we can calculate the specific heat of metal.

It is important to determine the qcalorimeter before determining the qmetal because the qcalorimeter is a constant and it's value is used to find the value of qmetal.

What is the difference between chemical change and physical change
Nadusha1986 [10]
In a physical change the appearance or form of the matter changes but the kind of matter in the substance does not. However in a chemical change, the kind of matter changes and at least one new substance with new properties is formed. Hope this helps!

3. How many moles of silver is 8.46x1024 atoms of<br> silver?
ioda

Answer:

<h2>14.05 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{8.46 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 14.053156

We have the final answer as

<h3>14.05 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

What is the IUPAC name for the compound FeS?
densk [106]
The correct answer is option 3. The IUPAC name is Iron(II) sulfide. It is the less stable amorphous form.  When this is powdered, it is pyrophoric or it ignites spontaneously in air. It readily reacts with hydrochloric acid producing hydrogen sulfide.
