When a substance absorbs thermal energy, it partitions some as potential and some as kinetic energy. Specific heat is an expression related to the quantity of heat a substance stores as potential energy; the remainder is absorbed as kinetic which causes the temperature to increase - recall that temperature is a measure of average kinetic energy. 
When specific heat is low, most of the energy is partitioned as kinetic energy and the substance will experience the greatest temperature change. 

So rather than calculating the change in temperature, we can simply inspect the specific heats. The one with the lowest will experience the greatest temperature change. We could also compare the specific heats: Al = .897/.385 ==> 2.3, Fe = .452/.385 = 1.2, Cu = .385/.385 = 1. We can expect Copper's temperature change to be 2.3 times larger than Aluminum's and 1.2 times larger than Iron's.

Of the following reactions occurring at 25ºC, which one involves the greatest increase in entropy?H2(g) + Cl2(g) = 2 HCl(g)H2O(s
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer: [tex]CO_2(s)\rightarrow CO_2(g)[/tex]

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.

\Delta S is positive when randomness increases and \Delta S is negative when randomness decreases.

a) H_2(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2HCl(g)

2 molesof gas are converting to 2 moles of another gas , thus \Delta S is zero.

b) H_2O(s)\rightarrow H_2O(l)

1 mole of solid is converting to 1 mole of liquid, the randomness increases and thus \Delta S is positive.

b) Pb^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s)

2 moles of ions are converting to 1 mole of solid, the randomness decreases and thus \Delta S is negative

d) CO_2(s)\rightarrow CO_2(g)

1 mole of solid is converting to 1 mole of gas, the randomness increases drastically and thus \Delta S is highly positive.

All of the following statements concerning voltaic cells are true EXCEPT
MissTica

Answer:

oxidation occurs at the cathode.

Explanation:

In a voltaic cell electrons move from anode to cathode. At the anode, species give up electrons. This is an oxidation reaction depicted by the oxidation half equation. At the cathode, species accept electrons and become reduced. This is depicted by the reduction half equation. In summary; in a Voltaic cell, oxidation occurs at the anode while reduction occurs at the cathode.

1. How many joules must be added to 10.0 g of water to raise its temperature from 10°C to<br> 15°C?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

209.3 Joules require to raise the temperature from 10 °C to 15 °C.

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m × c × ΔT

Given data:

mass of water = 10 g

initial temperature T1= 10 °C

final temperature T2=  15 °C

temperature change =ΔT= T2-T1 = 15°C - 10°C = 5 °C

Energy or joules added to increase the temperature Q = ?

Solution:

We know that specific heat of water is 4.186 J/g .°C

Q = m × c × ΔT

Q = 10 g × 4.186 J/g .°C × 5 °C

Q = 209.3 J
