When equilibrium has been reached so, according to this formula we can get the specific heat of the unknown metal and from it, we can define the metal as each metal has its specific heat:

Mw*Cw*ΔTw = Mm*Cm*ΔTm

when 
Mw → mass of water
Cw → specific heat of water
ΔTw → difference in temperature for water 

Mm→ mass of metal
Cw→ specific heat of the metal
ΔTm → difference in temperature for metal

by substitution:

100g * 4.18 * (40-39.8) = 8.23 g * Cm * (50-40)

∴ Cm = 83.6 / 82.3 = 1.02 J/g.°C

when the Cm of the Magnesium ∴ the unknown metal is Mg

Explain why the molar ratio is needed to determine the theoretical mass ratios.
choli [55]

Answer:

The overview of the subject is outlined underneath in the summary tab.

Explanation:

  • The molar ratio seems to be essentially a balanced chemical equilibrium coefficient that implies or serves as a conversion factor for the product-related reactants.
  • This ratio just says the reactant proportion which reacts, but not the exact quantity of the reacting product. Consequently, the molar ratio should only be used to provide theoretical instead of just a definite mass ratio.

What is the Newman projection for Citric Acid?
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

A Newman projection, useful in alkane stereochemistry, visualizes the conformation of a chemical bond from front to back, with the front atom represented by a dot and the back carbon as a circle. The front carbon atom is called proximal, while the back atom is called distal.

If the freezing point of an aqueous 0.10 m glucose solution is −x°c, what is the approximate freezing point of a 0.10 m nacl sol
maks197457 [2]
Answer is: the approximate freezing point of a 0.10 m NaCl solution is -2x°C.
V<span>an't Hoff factor (i) for NaCl solution is approximately 2.
</span>Van't Hoff factor (i) for glucose solution is 1.<span>
Change in freezing point from pure solvent to solution: ΔT = i · Kf · m.
Kf - molal freezing-point depression constant for water is 1,86°C/m.
m -  molality, moles of solute per kilogram of solvent.
</span>Kf and molality for this two solutions are the same, but Van't Hoff factor for sodium chloride is twice bigger, so freezing point is twice bigger.
