Answer:

Copper>Steel>Aluminium

Explanation:

Hello,

Since the heat capacity accounts for the required heat to increase by 1°C, 1 kg of the metal, copper is the one that has the lower heat capacity, it means that it requires the least amount of energy to warm up (increase its temperature), this could be substantiated via the mathematical definition of heat capacity:

H=mC(T_2-T_1)

Solving for T_2:

T_2=T_1+\frac{H}{mC}

It means that the lower the heat capacity, the higher the final temperature.

Best regards.

while doing a lab, a student found the density of a piece of pure aluminum to be 2.85 g/cm^3. the accepted value for the density
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Percent error = 5.6%

Explanation:

Given data:

Measured value of density by students = 2.85 g/cm³

Accepted density of aluminium = 2.70 g/cm³

Percent error = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Percent error = [ Measured value - accepted value / accepted value ]× 100

Now we will put the values in formula:

Percent error = [ 2.85 g/cm³  - 2.70 g/cm³ / 2.70 g/cm³ ]× 100

Percent error = [0.15/2.70 g/cm³ ] × 100

Percent error = 0.056× 100

Percent error = 5.6%

Choose the answer that best completes the following statement: When an aluminum atom reacts so as to attain a noble gas electron
boyakko [2]

The options

Select one:

a. a 3- ion forms.

b. the noble gas configuration of argon is achieved.

c. the result is a configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6.

d. the atom gains five electrons.

Answer:

c. the result is a configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6.

Explanation:

Aluminium atom has atomic number of 13 , hence the number of electron is 13 for a neutral atom of aluminium. When aluminium atom reacts with other elements it usually gives out three electron to attain the octet configuration.

The cation representation of aluminium is Al3+ because it has loss three electron to attain the octet rule. Aluminium will be left with 10 electrons after losing 3 of it electrons. The electronic configuration will be represented as follows after losing three electrons;

1S² 2S² 2P∧6 .

At this stage the octet rule has been achieved as it will be represented as

2  8.  The first energy shell now contains two electron and the second energy shell contains 8 electrons.

The configuration of  Neon has been formed in the process.
