Answer:

its mass

its temperature

Explanation:

The heat capacity of a body is the amount of heat needed to raise that temperature of a body by 1k or 1°C.

It is expresses as:

              H = m c Ф

where m is the mass of the body

           c is the specific heat of the body

           Ф is the temperature change of the body

Specific heat capacity is that heat content needed to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by 1k or 1°C

Heat capacity is also known as heat content;

 To solve the problem:

 since H = m c Ф

  we make the unknown c the subject of the expression;

                c = \frac{H}{m (t_{2} - t_{1} )} = H / mФ

So to obtain the specific heat capacity, divided the heat capacity by mass and its temperature change.

What shape and bond angles would this molecule have in three dimensions?
Darya [45]

Answer : The shape and bond angle of the given molecule is, bent and 120^o respectively.

Explanation :

In the given molecule, 'Y' is the central atom and 'X' is the neighboring atom. In the given molecule, there are 4 electron pairs that means the hybridization will be sp^3 and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be tetrahedral.

But as there are two atoms around the central atom, the third and fourth position will be occupied by lone pair of electrons. The repulsion between lone and bond pair of electrons is more and hence the molecular geometry will be bent or angular and the bond angle will be, 120^o.

Hence, the shape and bond angle of the given molecule is, bent and 120^o respectively.

How many moles of O2 are needed to react with 2.55 mol of C2H2?
Lelechka [254]

Answer: 6.38 moles of O_2 are needed to react with 2.55 mol of C_2H_2

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction for the combustion of ethyne is:

2C_2H_2+5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+2H_2O

According to stoichiometry:

2 moles of C_2H_2 require = 5 moles of O_2

Thus 2.55 mol of C_2H_2 require = \frac{5}{2}\times 2.55=6.38 moles of O_2

Thus 6.38 moles of O_2 are needed to react with 2.55 mol of C_2H_2

What does conserving mass mean in a chemical equation?
lubasha [3.4K]
The law of conservation of mass states that mass or matter cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or recombined.
For chemical equations, this law means that each element must be accounted for equally both for reactants and products. So the same numbers of each atom must match on each side, hence the necessity for balancing the chemical equation accurately. This created a field of chemistry called Stoichiometry, which accounts for the conservation of matter throughout chemical reactions and processes.
