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

What is the concentration of hydronium ions and hydroxide ions
nikdorinn [45]
To find the concentration of hydronium ions, take 10 raised to the negative pH:
10^-9.56= 2.75 x10^-10M

To find the concentration of hydroxide ions, take 10 raised to the negative pOH: 10^-4.44 = 3.63 x10^-5M

4.4 grams of CO2 represents how many moles?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

1) Moles of CO 2 = Given mass / Molecular mass of CO 2 = 4.4 / 44 = 0.1 mole. 2) Molecules of CO2 in 0.1 moles of CO2 = 0.1 x 6.023 x 10 23 = 6.023 x 10 22 molecules 3) 44 gram (molecular wt of CO 2) contains 2 moles atom of oxygen therefore 4.4 gram of CO2 will contain = 2 /44 *4.4 = 0.2 moles atom of Oxygen.
