125.0 g of an unknown substance is heated to 97.0°C. It is then placed in a calorimeter than contains 250g of water with an init

ial temperature of 20.0°C.
The final temperature reached by the calorimeter is 23.5°C.
What is the specific heat of the unknown substance? The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/ (°C × g)

A) 0.285 J/ (°C × g)
B) 0.398 J/ (°C × g)
C) 0.729 J/ (°C × g)
D) 1.24 J/ (°C × g)

The heat released by the substance in the calorimeter is equal to  the heat absorbed by water which results to the decrease and increase in temperature, respectively.
We use m Cp ΔT to balance the heat involved 

(m Cp ΔT) subs in calorimeter = <span>(m Cp ΔT) water
</span>125 g * Cp * (97.0-23.5 ) C = 250 g *(4.18 J/C g)* (23.5-20)
Cp = 0.398 J/Cg

Answer is B

Plan an investigation using solid and liquid water to show that thermal energy is not the same as temperature.
algol [13]

The investigation using solid and liquid water to show that thermal energy is not the same as temperature is:

  • Place a glass of water and a lake and both should be at the same temperature, find out if do they have the same amount of total thermal energy.

<h3>What is the response to the experiment above?</h3>

The response is No, because the lake is known to have a lot more particles than the glass of water and so they will not have the same  thermal energy.

Note that the temperature is seen as the an average and thermal energy is seen to be the total. A glass of water can be able to have the same temperature as what we call Lake Superior, but the lake has a lot of thermal energy due to the fact that the lake has a lot of water molecules.

So the investigation using solid and liquid water to show that thermal energy is not the same as temperature is Place a glass of water and a lake and both should be at the same temperature, find out if do they have the same amount of total thermal energy.

how many H+ ions are in a solution with a pH of 2 and how many H+ ions are in a solution with a pH of 6?
LiRa [457]

Answer:

i) pH = 2

pH = -log(H+)

:- (H+) = 10^(-2)

:- (H+) = 0.01 M

ii) pH = 6

pH = -log(H+)

:- (H+) = 10^(-6)

:- (H+) = 0.000001 M

Explanation:

By definition: pH = -log(H+).

Given your pH, solve for the H+ using the the following log rule:

if a = (+/-) log (b) then

b = 10^((+/-) a).

Also remember unit of concentration is molar (M)

Which structures join with the cell’s membrane during exocytosis?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:Exocytosis is also used to integrate new proteins into the cell membrane. In this process, the new protein is formed inside the cell, and migrates to phospholipid bilayer of the vesicle. The vesicle, containing the new protein as a part of the phospholipid bilayer, fuses with the cell membrane.

True or false if an object displaces 50 ml of water the object's volume is 50mL
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The volume of water displaced by an object completely submerged is its actual volume. It implies that in the container the object create a space of size for itself which is the volume of the object. This approach is used in calculating the density of many irregular solids from their measured masses.
