Answer:
Charge the balloon, hold it near an electroscope, and determine if the electroscope leaves move.
Explanation:
The gold leaf electroscope is an instrument used to detect if a body is charged. It has two gold leafs suspended from a brass stem in a vacuumed glass jar and connected to a metal cap(Toppr).
When the test body is allowed to touch the metal cap, a change in the size of the leaves shows whether the body is charged or not.
Since we are suspecting the balloon to be made up of a metal; metals can be charged. We can test if there is really a charge on the balloon by bringing it near an electroscope to see if the electroscope moves.
Answer:
If 700 g of water at 90 °C loses 27 kJ of heat, its final temperature is 106.125 °C
Explanation:
Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.
In this way, between heat and temperature there is a direct proportional relationship (Two magnitudes are directly proportional when there is a constant so that when one of the magnitudes increases, the other also increases; and the same happens when either of the two decreases .). The constant of proportionality depends on the substance that constitutes the body and its mass, and is the product of the specific heat and the mass of the body. So, the equation that allows to calculate heat exchanges is:
Q = c * m * ΔT
Where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, constituted by a substance of specific heat c and where ΔT is the variation in temperature, ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial
In this case:
- Q= 27 kJ= 27,000 J (being 1 kJ=1,000 J)

- m=700 g
- ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= Tfinal - 90 °C
Replacing:

Solving:


16.125 °C= Tfinal - 90 °C
Tfinal= 16.125 °C + 90 °C
Tfinal= 106.125 °C
<u><em>If 700 g of water at 90 °C loses 27 kJ of heat, its final temperature is 106.125 °C</em></u>
