Answer:

Water

Explanation:

Given the specific heat of oxygen is 918J/kg°C and the specific heat of water is 4181 J/kg°C.

Consider 1Kg mass of each substance.

Now 1 Kg of oxygen needs 918 J of energy to raise its temperature by 1°C

Also 1 Kg of water needs 4181 J of energy to raise its temperature by 1°C.

Clearly water recquires more energy when compared to oxygen.

Basically specific heat capacity is the amount of energy recquired to raise the temperature of a 1 kg body by 1°C.

There are 1,000 milligrams (mg) in one gram:
In 10 grams, there are 10 x 1,000 = 10,000 milligrams. This is a lethal dose of caffeine.

There are 4.05 mg/oz (milligrams/ounce) of caffeine in the soda. 
In a 12 ounce can, there are 4.05 x 12 = 48.6 milligrams.

How many sodas would it take to kill you?
To find this, we divide the lethal dose amount (10,000 mg) by the amount of caffeine per can (48.6 mg).
10,000 ÷ 48.6 = 205.76. 

Since 205 cans is not quite 10,000 mg, technically it would take 206 cans of soda to consume a lethal dose of caffeine.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

p = \boxed{\text{593 torr}}

Explanation:

For this question, we must use Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures:

The partial pressure of a gas in a mixture of gases equals its mole fraction times the total pressure:

p = \chi p_{\text{tot}}

Data:

χ = 0.7808

p_{\text{tot}} = \text{ 760 torr}

Calculation:

p = 0.7808 \times \text{ 760 torr}\\\\p= \boxed{\textbf{593 torr}}

Determine the freezing point of a 0.51 molal
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

-65.897°C.

Explanation:

  • Adding solute to water causes depression of the boiling point.
  • The depression in freezing point (ΔTf) can be calculated using the relation: <em>ΔTf = Kf.m,</em>

where, ΔTf is the depression in freezing point of chloroform solution.

Kf is the molal depression constant of chloroform (Kf = 4.70°C.kg/mol).

m is the molality of the solution (m = 0.51 m).

∴ ΔTf = Kf.m = (4.70°C.kg/mol)(0.51 m) = 2.397°C.

∴ The freezing point of the solution = (freezing point of chloroform) - ΔTf = (-63.5°C) - (2.397°C) = -65.897°C.
