The specific heat capacity of the given substance is -0.66 J/g°C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The heat absorbed by any substance is the product of its mass, specific heat capacity and change in temperature.

q = m × c × ΔT

m is the mass in grams

q = amount of heat released or absorbed in J

ΔT = change in temperature in °C = 5 -50 = -45°C

c = specific heat capacity in J/g°C

c = $\frac{q}{m \times dT}

Plugin the values, we will get,

c = $\frac{2192 }{73.9 \times-45}

= -0.66 J/g°C

What is a change in a substance that does not involve the identity of the substance

The answer to this would be a physical change. Physical changes are changes that affect the form of a chemical substance, but not the chemical composition itself. Hope this helped!

g \Which substance has the lowest vapor pressure at 25 °C? Group of answer choices CH3CH2OH CH3CH2CH2OH CH3CH2CH2CH2OH CH3CH2CH2
alexdok [17]

Answer:

CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2OH.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since the vapor pressure is known to be the pressure exerted by the gaseous molecules in equilibrium with a liquid, we can infer that the higher the molecule, the lower the vapor pressure because the molecules tend to be help together more strongly and more energy is required to separate them and take them from liquid to gas.

In such a way, since CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2OH is the longest molecule (five carbon atoms) it would be more stable at liquid phase which means that it has less molecules moving to gaseous phase, which is also related with the lowest vapor pressure. Conversely, CH3CH2OH has the highest vapor pressure.

Best regards.

Compare the polymerisation reaction used to produce poly(ethene) with the
butalik [34]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Polymerization is the process whereby two or more monomers link together to form a compound of high molecular mass called a polymer.

There are two kinds of polymers;

-Addition polymers

-Condensation polymers

Addition polymers are formed by the joining of two or more monomers  to form a polymer without the elimination of a small molecule.

Condensation polymers are formed by the joining of two or more molecules  to form polymers with the elimination of a small molecule.

The main difference between polyethene and polyester is that polyethene is an addition polymer while polyester is a condensation polymer.

In polyethene, ethene molecules are joined together having the repeating unit as [-CH2-CH2-]n.

In polyester, the polymer arises from the reaction of carboxylic acid and an alcohol and loss of water molecules.

Chemical equation below demonstrate that?<br> NEED HELP ASAP
zmey [24]

(a) Matter cannot be created and destroyed by a chemical reaction.

Explanation:

(a) Matter cannot be created and destroyed by a chemical reaction. (correct)

The number and type of atoms entering the chemical reaction are the same with the number and type of atoms leaving the chemical reaction.

(b) The reactants are the same substance as the products. (wrong)

You may see in the reaction that we have as reactants zinc and hydrochloric acid which react to form the products, zinc chloride and hydrogen.

(c) The number of molecules in the reactants are equal to the number of molecules in the products. (wrong)

As reactants we have 2 hydrochloric acid (HCl) molecules and as products 1  hydrogen (H₂) molecule. Zn is a metal and ZnCl is a salt.

(d) The atoms on the reactants side are changed into different atoms on the products side. (wrong)

The number and type of atoms entering the chemical reaction are the same with the number and type of atoms leaving the chemical reaction.
