Answer:
The heat needed to warm 25.3 g of copper from 22°C to 39°C is 165.59 Joules.
Explanation:
Where:
Q = heat absorbed or heat lost
c = specific heat of substance
m = Mass of the substance
ΔT = change in temperature of the substance
We have mass of copper = m = 25.3 g
Specific heat of copper = c = 0.385 J/g°C
ΔT = 39°C - 22°C = 17°C
Heat absorbed by the copper :
The heat needed to warm 25.3 g of copper from 22°C to 39°C is 165.59 Joules.
The atoms combine to form compounds to attain stability in nature. The combination of atoms takes place by sharing of electrons between the atoms or complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another. Generally, atoms combine to complete their octet, that is to possess eight electrons in their outer most shell (noble gas configurations) except hydrogen which can attain stability by two electrons in its outer most shell.
Since germanium has 4 electrons in its outer most shell so it needs 4 more electrons to complete its octet and attains the stability. Hydrogen has 1 electron in its outer most shell and it needs only 1 electron to attain stability so, each germanium will combine with 4 hydrogen atoms and thus forming molecule which is stable in nature.
Hence, is the formula of the hydride formed by germanium.
