The answer is hydroxides.
The elements of the group IA are termed as alkali metals, because their hydroxides are alkaline.
Answer:
Moving objects contain energy. The faster the object moves, the more energy it has. ... Energy can be converted from one form to another form. Kinetic energy can be distinguished from the various forms of potential energy.
Explanation:
Problem One
You will use both m * c * deltaT and H = m * heat of fusion.
Givens
m = 12.4 grams
c = 0.1291
t1 = 26oC
t2 = 1204
heat of fusion (H_f) = 63.5 J/grams.
Equation
H = m * c * deltaT + m * H_f
Solution
H = 12.4 * 0.1291 * (1063 - 26) + 12.4 * 63.5
H = 1660.1 + 787.4
H = 2447.5 or 2447.47 is the exact answer. I have to leave the rounding to you. I have no idea where to round it although I suspect 2450 would be right for 3 sig digs.
Problem Two
Formula and Givens
t1 = 14.5
t2 = 50.0
E = 5680
c = 4.186
m = ??
E = m c * deltaT
Solution
5680 = m * 4.186 * (50 - 14.5)
5680 = m * 4.186 * (35.5)
5680 = m * 148.603 * m
m = 5680 / 148.603
m = 38.22 grams That isn't very much. Be very sure you are working in joules. You'd leave that many grams in the kettle after drying it thoroughly.
m = 38.2 to 3 sig digs.
A residue from a gunshot is most likely gun powder, which tells you what kind of bullet was shot and the type of gun that was used to shoot the target/victim/person. Some complications may be that there is more than one gun or weapon which uses that residue, so it may be hard to pinpoint it and the bullet can't really tell you who it is unless there's DNA on the bullet, and the chemicals of the bullet may even destroy evidence.
