Answer:

1.8 × 10² cal

Explanation:

When 0.32 g of a walnut is burned, the heat released is absorbed by water and used to raise its temperature. We can calculate this heat (Q) using the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

where,

c: specific heat capacity of water

m: mass of water

ΔT: change in the temperature

Considering the density of water is 1 g/mL, 58.1 mL = 58.1 g.

Q = c × m × ΔT

Q = (1 cal/g.°C) × 58.1 g × 3.1°C

Q = 1.8 × 10² cal

5. Can you determine the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom by looking at the element's average atomic mass and the at
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

No you can't

Explanation:

The atomic number is the amount of protons in element's nucleus, that's one reason why. The second reason is that the atomic mass is protons and neutrons combined, their estimated value, which doesn't show how much neutrons are in an element. It does show combined, but not specifically neutrons

What is the Bond Type and Molecular polarity of PCl3?
DedPeter [7]
It is covalent bonding. The electrons are shared between the phosphorus and the chlorines.

covalent bonding is when electrons are shared between two elements.

molecular polarity is a little bit complicated, but I will try to explain ;)
PCl3 is an alternation on tetrahedral molecules.
It means that P has one lone pair of electrons. This pair of electrons are only attracted to the P nuclei and thus a greater freedom of motion.
This means that their orbital is bigger and this pushes the 3 Cl atoms closer together.
The angle between each Cl now is 107 and the angle between Cls and P is greater than 107.
Now, due to this shape, and also electronegativity (Cl is more electronegative than P meaning that it tends to hog the electrons they share closer to itself), PCl3 is polar. Electrons that are shared tend to flow closer towards the Cl than the P side.
Therefore, on the Cl side of the molecule it's, more negative. On the P side, it's more positive.

Find a mole of 0.0960 g of H2SO4
nignag [31]
Molar mass H₂SO₄ = 98.079 g/mol

1 mol -------- 98.079 g
? mole ------ 0.0960 g

moles = 0.0960 * 1 / 98.079

= 0.0960 / 98.079

= 9.788 x 10⁻⁴ moles

hope this helps!
