Answer:

An Atom.

Explanation:

An atom is the smallest particle of a chemical element that can exist. It the fundamental piece of matter. Therefore, splitting carbon into smaller pieces , the smallest piece that would still be called "carbon" would be an Atom of carbon. However, atom is also made of three subatomic particles called electrons, protons and neutrons.

A sample of salt (sodium chloride) is placed on the tip of a platinum wire. When the sample is heated on blue flame the flame tu
gulaghasi [49]
So platinum is a transition metal. In general transition metals are reducers, which means they can give the electrons they have, to the sodium atoms. Also in chemistry we look at sub orbitals rather that shells(2,8,8). So due to the energy from heat, the d orbital split as electrons move to a higher energy level. Some of the electrons are given to the sodium ions and therefore the flame changes colour to yellow. 
The excitation of the electrons is caused by them getting energy and so moving up an energy level. This energy is released and the electron returns to it's original state. The energy released, however, does not release in the same direction, but in different/various directions. Therefore the colour of the light changes as some energy is released in the surrounding.

VA 19.75-g sample was heated by 12.35 calories. The specific heat of the sample is 0.125 cal/g°C. What was the initial temperatu
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

31.9 °C  

Explanation:

The formula for the heat q absorbed by an object is

q = mCΔT where ΔT = (T₂ - T₁)

Data:

q = 12.35 cal

m = 19.75 g

C = 0.125 cal°C⁻¹g⁻¹

T₂ = 37.0 °C

Calculations

(a) Calculate ΔT

q = mCΔT

12.35 cal = 19.25 g × 0.125 cal°C⁻¹g⁻¹ × ΔT

12.35 = 2.406ΔT °C⁻¹  

ΔT  = 12.35/(2.406 °C⁻¹) = 5.13 °C

(b) Calculate T₂

ΔT = T₂ - T₁

T₁ = T₂ - ΔT = 37.0 °C - 5.13 °C = 31.9 °C

The original temperature was 31.9 °C.

Calculate the pressure exerted by an book of mass 20kg occupying an area of 2 m square.​
kotykmax [81]

The answer is 100 Pa.

The formula for calculating pressure is :

<u>Pressure = Force ÷ Area</u>

<u />

We are given that :

  • mass = 20 kg
  • area = 2 m²

We also know that :

<u>Force = mass ×g</u>

<u />

So, force will be :

  • F = 20 × 10
  • F = 200 N

Now, we can finally calculate pressure :

  • P = 200 ÷ 2
  • P = 100 Pa
