A 40.27 g sample of a substance is initially at 24.8 °c. after absorbing 2099 j of heat, the temperature of the substance is 148

.5 °c. what is the specific heat (c) of the substance?

Q = mCΔT
Q is heat in joules, m is mass, C is specific heat, and delta T is change in temp

2099 J = (40.27g)(C)(148.5 - 24.8) = .421 J / gram K

What changes in space result from the death of massive stars?

lana [24]

Whenever the fuel is being used up, a star explodes and the energy leakage from a star's core ceases.

Explanation:

The dying star expands in the "Red Giant," before even the inevitable collapse starts, due to nuclear reactions just outside of the core.

It becomes a white dwarf star when the star has almost the same density as the Sun. If it's much larger, a supernova explosion could take place and leave a neutron star away. However, if it is very large–at least three times the Sun's mass–the crumbling core of the star, nothing will ever stop it from crumbling. The star is imploding into a black hole, an endless gravitational loop in space.

A sample of TNT, C7H5N3O6 , has 8.94 × 1021 nitrogen atoms. How many hydrogen atoms are there in this sample of TNT?

Bess [88]

Answer:

1.49×10²² atoms of H are contained in the sample

Explanation:

TNT → C₇H₅N₃O₆

1 mol of this has 7 moles of C, 5 moles of H, 3 moles of N and 6 moles of O

Let's determine the mass of TNT.

Molar mass is = 227 g/mol

As 1 mol has (6.02×10²³) NA atoms, how many moles are 8.94×10²¹ atoms.

8.94×10²¹ atoms / NA = 0.0148 moles

So this would be the rule of three to determine the mass of TNT

3 moles of N are in 227 g of compound

0.0148 moles of N are contained in (0.0148 .227) / 3 = 1.12 g

Now we can work with the hydrogen.

227 grams of TNT contain 5 moles of H

1.12 grams of TNT would contain (1.12 .5) / 227 = 0.0247 moles

Finally let's convert this moles to atoms:

0.0247 mol . 6.02×10²³ atoms / 1 mol = 1.49×10²² atoms

How much water would be needed to completely dissolve 1.52 L of the gas at a pressure of 730 torr and a temperature of 21 ∘C?

Sophie [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 0.4 L.

Explanation:

The mentioned question can be solved by using the equation,

C = K × Pgas--------(i)

Here K is the Henry law constant whose value is 0.158 mol/L/atm, C is the concentration of the gas in liquid state, and Pgas is the partial pressure of the gas.

Now to find the volume of water, the formula to be used is,

PV = nRT-----------(ii)

Here P is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume, R is the universal gas constant whose value is 0.082 Latm/mol/K and T is the temperature.

PgasV = nRT

Pgas = nRT/Vgas

The value of Pgas is inserted in equation (i) we get,

C = K × nRT/Vgas

It is to be noted that C = n/V, here n is the no. of the moles and V is the volume of liquid.

n/Vliquid = K × nRT/Vgas

1/Vliquid = KRT/Vgas

Vliquid = Vgas/KRT--------------(iii)

Based on the given information, the volume of the gas is 1.52 L, the value of K is 0.158 mol/L/atm, the value of R is 0.082 Latm/mol/K and value of T is 21 degree C or 273 + 21 = 294 K.

Now putting the values in equation (iii) we get,

Vliquid = 1.52 L / 0.158 × 0.082 × 294

Vliquid = 1.52 / 3.809

Vliquid = 0.399 or 0.4 L

Hence, the volume of water required to dissolve 1.52 L of gas is 0.4 L.

Is MgS ionic or covalent

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Ionic

Explanation:

Mg has 2 electron in it's outermost orbit, by donating this two electron to Sulfur it get stable mg 2+ electronic configuration while sulfur has 6 electron in it's outermost shell ,so sulfur accept this 2 electron and complete it's octet and become s2–.
