A unit of heat energy that was formerly used frequently was the calorie. Look up the definition of the calorie in your textbook

or a handbook and record it here. Calculate the calorimeter constant for your calorimeter in cal/°C .

Answer and Explanation:

Calorie is the unit of heat energy . There are 2 units with the same name 'calorie' which is widely used.

'The amount of heat energy required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water by mass by 1^{\circ}C or 1 K is known as small calorie or gram calorie'.

Another one is large calorie which can be defined as :

'The amount of heat energy required to make arise in temperature of water 1 kg by mass by 1^{\circ}C or 1 K is known as large calorie or  kilcalorie and is represented as Cal or kcal'.

After the adoption of SI system, thee units of the metric system cal, C or kilocal are considered deprecated or obsolete with the SI unit for heat energy as 'joule or J'

1 cal = 4.184 J

1C or 1 kilocal = 4184 J

Calorimeter constant:

Calorimeter constant, represented as 'C_{cal}' is used to quantify the heat capacity or the amount of heat of a calorimeter.

It can be calculated by ther given formula:

{\displaystyle C_{cal}}={\frac {\Delta {H}}{\Delta {T}}}}}

where,

{\Delta {T}} = corresponding temperature change

{\Delta {H} = enthalpy change

Its unit is J/K or J/1^{\circ}C[/tex] which can be convertyed to cal/1^{\circ}C[/tex] by dividing the calorimeter constant by 4.184 or 4184 accordingly.

Fill in the blank with the correct answer. The longer the handle the __________ the mechanical advantage and the greater the inc
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Greater

Explanation:

The longer the handle, the greater the mechanical advantage and the greater the increase in force that is applied to the bolt.

Mechanical advantage is the rate at which force is multiplied.

  • It simply compares the output force to the input force.
  • M.A is the force increasing tendency of a tool.
  • The longer  the handle, the more the mechanical advantage and the lesser the applied force.

What is the mass of 5 moles of Fe2(CO3)3 ?
sineoko [7]

Answer:

1218.585

Explanation:

Looking at the subscripts we know there are 2 atoms of Fe, 3 atoms of C, and 6 of O.

Take the molar mass of each atom (from the periodic table) and multiply by the # of atoms

Fe: 55.845×2= 111.69

C: 12.011×3= 36.033

O:15.999×6=95.994

Add the values together: 243.717 g/mol

That is 1 mole of the molecule. Multiply by 5 for the final answer.

243.717×5=1218.585

In substitution reactions, (CH3)3C-I reacts at the same rate with Br- and Cl- even though Br- is a more reactive nucleophile tha
Kamila [148]

Answer:

A. (CH3)3C-I reacts by SN1 mechanism whose rate is independent of nucleophile reactivity.

Explanation:

We must recall that (CH3)3C-I is a tertiary alkyl halide. Tertiary alkyl halides preferentially undergo substitution reaction via SN1 mechanism.

In SN1 mechanism, the rate of reaction depends solely on the concentration of the alkyl halide (unimolecular mechanism) and is independent of the concentration of the nucleophile. As a result of this, both Br^- and Cl^- react at the same rate.
