How does the amount of a substance affect the rate at which temperature changes?

1 answer:

5 0

The amount of heat energy transferred (out or in) depends on three factors:1. The capacity of the substance to absorb heat – called the specific heat capacity 2.The amount (moles) of the substances reacting3. The change in temperature
So its not the "amount" of the substance as much as the density of it (the moles). The more dense something is, the slower the rate.

Determine the molecular formula of a compound that is 49.48% carbon, 5.19% hydrogen, 28.85% nitrogen, and 16.48% oxygen. the mol

Softa [21]

To determine molecular formula, we first need to find out its empirical formula,
Carbon. Hydrogen. Nitrogen. Oxygen
Mass. 49.98g. 5.19g. 28.85g. 16.48g
Mole. 4.165. 5.19. 2.06. 1.03
Divide 4. 5. 2. 1
by
smallest
So by comparing the mole ratio from the table above, i hope u understand the table
The empirical formula is C4H5N2O
given molecular mass = 194.19g
so
(C4H5N2O) n= 194.19
(48+5+28+16)n=194.19
n= 2
molecular formula = C8H10N4O2

Once an enzymatic reaction is completed, the enzyme releases what?

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Once an enzymatic reaction is completed, the enzyme releases substrates.

Explanation:

The enzyme will always return to its original state at the completion of the reaction. One of the important properties of enzymes is that they remain ultimately unchanged by the reactions they catalyze. After an enzyme is done catalyzing a reaction, it releases its products (substrates).

Phosphorous would gain or lose electrons?

devlian [24]

Answer: the valence electron for phosphorus is 5. To achieve an octet electron arrangement, it needs to lose 5 electrons or gain 3 electrons. It is easier to gain 3 electrons than to lose 5 electrons. So phosphorus has to gain 3 electrons.

What do cations and anions form?

melomori [17]

Answer: Cations (positively-charged ions) and anions (negatively-charged ions) are formed when a metal loses electrons, and a nonmetal gains those electrons. The electrostatic attraction between the positives and negatives brings the particles together and creates an ionic compound, such as sodium chloride.
