Answer:

True statment

2) Styrofoam would make a good calorimeter

3) Insulating material would make a good calorimeter

Explanation:

The calorimeter is one which is insulated that is which will not absorb or let the heat to escape from it. the calorimeter is used to measure the heat change during a process so if it will allow to exchange heat with surrounding it will deviate the readings or observence.

Copper is a good conductor of heat so we cannot use it make a calorimeter.

Hence

1) Copper would make a good calorimeter : False

2) Styrofoam would make a good calorimeter: True

Styrofoam is a bad conductor or insulator so it can be and it is used for calorimeter.

3) Insulating material would make a good calorimeter : True

4) A good calorimeter should easily absorb heat : false

A water treatment tablet contains 20.0 mg of tetraglycine hydroperiodide, 40.0% of which is available as soluble iodine. If two

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

$16\ \text{ppm}$

Explanation:

Mass of one tablet = 20 mg

Mass of two tablets = $2\times 20=40\ \text{mg}$

Percent that is soluble in water = 40%

Mass of tablet that is soluble in water = $0.4\times 40=16\ \text{mg}$

So, mass of solute is $16\ \text{mg}$

Density of water = 1 kg/L

Volume of water = 1 L

So, mass of 1 L of water is $1\times 1=1\ \text{kg}=1000\ \text{g}$

PPM is given by

$\dfrac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solvent}}\times 10^6=\dfrac{16\times 10^{-3}}{1000}\times 10^6\\ =16\ \text{ppm}$

Hence, the concentration of iodine in the treated water $16\ \text{ppm}$ .

Which statement about atmospheric pressure is false?

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

D) With an increase in altitude, atmospheric pressure increases as well.

Explanation:

Generally when altitude increases, the value of pressure decreases. This shows that pressure is inversely proportional to altitude. For example, the higher the altitude, the lower the pressure and vice versa. At very high altitude, the number of molecules of air are smaller than the number of moles of air at very low altitude. Thus, the higher the altitude, the lower the atmospheric pressure and the lower the altitude, the higher the atmospheric pressure. Therefore, option (D) is false.

Need help on this question asap pleasee

algol [13]

Answer:

9.0 moles of CaO

Explanation:

We have the reaction equation as follows;

Fe2O3 + Ca3(PO4)2 -------> 2FePO4 + 3CaO

Now we know from the equation that;

1 mole of iron III oxide yields 3 moles of CaO

Therefore;

3 moles of iron III oxide yields 3 * 3/1

= 9.0 moles of CaO

How can glass be a liquid if it's so hard?

levacccp [35]

Answer:

It is an amorphous solid and hence also called pseudo solid. So it flows very slowly over thousands of years. It is not visible to the n*ked eye.

A 215-g sample of copper metal at some temperature is added to 26.6 g of water. The initial water temperature is 22.22 oC, and t

andrezito [222]

The initial temperature of the copper metal was 27.38 degrees.

Explanation:

Data given:

mass of the copper metal sample = 215 gram

mass of water = 26.6 grams

Initial temperature of water = 22.22 Degrees

Final temperature of water = 24.44 degrees

Specific heat capacity of water = 0.385 J/g°C

initial temperature of copper material , Ti=?

specific heat capacity of water = 4.186 joule/gram °C

from the principle of:

heat lost = heat gained

heat gained by water is given by:

q water = mcΔT

Putting the values in the equation:

qwater = 26.6 x 4.186 x (2.22)

qwater = 247.19 J

qcopper = 215 x 0.385 x (Ti-24.4)

= 82.77Ti - 2019.71

Now heat lost by metal = heat gained by water

82.77Ti - 2019.71 = 247.19

Ti = 27.38 degrees
