The heat required to completely melt the given substance, platinum, we just have to convert first the given mass in mole and multiply the answer to its molar heat of fusion.. 
                              Hf  = mass x (1/molar mass) x molar heat of fusion
                            Hf = (85.5 g) x (1 mole/195.08 g) x 4.70 kcal/mol
                                   Hf = 2.06 kcal

The  properties which keep the water temperature from changing much are;

  • water's high specific heat capacity
  • the large mass of water
<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>

The specific heat capacity is the property of a substance that shows how much its temperature changes when it is exposed to heat.

Thus, the  properties which keep the water temperature from changing much are;

  • water's high specific heat capacity
  • the large mass of water

Missing parts:

A red-hot iron nail is immersed in a large bucket of water. Although the nail cools down sufficiently to be held bare-handed, the temperature of the water barely increases. Which properties keep the water temperature from changing much?

A.) water's high heat conductivity

B.) water's high specific heat capacity

C.) the iron nail's high heat conductivity

D.) the large mass of water

E.) the iron nail's high specific heat capacity

It takes 167 s for an unknown gas to effuse through a porous wall and 99 s for the same volume of n2 gas to effuse at the same t
irakobra [83]

Answer : The molar mass of the unknown gas will be 79.7 g/mol


Explanation : To solve this question we can use graham's law;


Now we can use nitrogen as the gas number 2, which travels faster than gas 1;

So, 167 / 99 = 1.687 So the nitrogen gas is 1.687 times faster that the unknown gas 1

We can compare the rates of both the gases;


So here, Rate of gas 2 / Rate of gas 1 = \sqrt{(molar mass 1 / molar mass 2)}

Now, 1.687 = square root [\sqrt{(molar mass 1) / (28.01 g/mol N_{2})} ]


When we square both the sides we get;


2.845 = (molar mass 1) / (28.01 g/mol N2)


On rearranging, we get,


2.845 X (28.01 g/mol N2) = Molar mass 1

So the molar mass of unknown gas will be = 79.7 g/mol
