A sample of aluminum absorbs 9.86 J of heat, upon which the temperature increases from 23.2°C to 30.5°C. Since the specific heat

capacity of aluminum is 0.90 J/g-K, what is the mass of the sample?

Answer:

1.50 g

Explanation:

The heat absorbed by the aluminum in this case is:

q = m x C x ΔT     m= q/ (C x ΔT)

q= 9.86 J

C = 0.90 J/g-K

ΔT = ( 30.5 ºC - 23.2 ºC ) = 7.3 ºC = 7.3 K (this is a range of temperature)

m = 9.86 J / ( 0.90 J/g-K ) x 7.3 K ) = 1.50 g

Scientific knowledge can withstand the test of time because A. exceptions can be made regarding scientific laws. B. it is open t
Iteru [2.4K]

B. It is open to change as new evidence or data is discovered. If scientists discover new evidence, they must modify their theories to conform with the new data.

A. is <em>incorrect</em>. Scientific laws are so well established that there can be no exceptions.

C. is <em>incorrect</em>. A scientific theory is the collective judgement of scientists as to the best explanation for a phenomenon. A new observation may require modification of the theory.

D. is <em>incorrect</em>. Advancements in technology can provide new evidence that requires new explanations.

Table salt contains 39.33 g of sodium per 100 g of salt. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommends that adults cons
IrinaVladis [17]
 <span>First set up the equation 39.33g/100g = x/1.28g and that'll give you how much sodium is in each 100g of the mix. 

39.33g *1.28g= 100g * x 
x = 0.503424g 
x = Amount of sodium per 100g of the mix 

Now 2.4g / 0.503424 = 4.7674 
Multiply by 100 and you get 476.7353g</span>

The reaction between nitrogen and oxygen is given below: 2 N2(g) + O2(g) 2 N2O(g) We therefore know that which of the following
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

  • a)  2N₂O(g) → 2N₂(g)  + O₂(g)

Explanation:

Arrange the equations in the proper way for better understanding.

T<em>he reaction between nitrogen and oxygen is given below:</em>

<em />

  • <em>2N₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2N₂O(g)</em>

<em />

<em>We therefore know that which of the following reactions can also occur?</em>

<em />

  • <em>a)  2N₂O(g) → 2N₂(g)  + O₂(g)</em>
  • <em>b)  N₂(g) + 2O₂(g) → 2NO₂(g)</em>
  • <em>c)  2NO₂(g) → N₂(g) + 2O₂(g)</em>
  • <em>d) None of the Above</em>

<h2>Solution</h2>

Notice that the first equation,  a) 2N₂O(g) → 2N₂(g)  + O₂(g), is the reverse of the original equation, 2N₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2N₂O(g).

The reactions in gaseous phase are reversible reactions that can be driven to one or other direction by modifying the conditions of temperature or pressure.

Thus, the equilibrium equation would be:

  • 2N₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2N₂O(g)

Which shows that both the forward and the reverse reactions occur.

Whether one or the other are favored would depend on the temperature and pressure: high temperatures would favor the reaction that consumes more heat (the endothermic reaction) and high pressures would favor the reaction that consumes more moles.

Thus, by knowing that one of the reactions can occur you can conclude that the reverse reaction can also occur.
