What variable represents specific heat in the equation q = mct?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nata [24]3 years ago
5 0

The "c" represents in specific heat in this question.


Q is the total energy, m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity, and t is the temperature change. This equation is the equation for calculating about the total energy given out of absorbed when a temperature of a substance changes.


For example, if we want to know how much heat is absorbed by 1 kg of water for it to rise by 10 degrees, we can calculate by using the specific heat of water, which is around 4200 J kg-1 °C-1. So the total heat absorbed would be 1 x 4200 x 10 = 42000 J.

Boyle's law states that gas volume is Boyle's law states that gas volume is inversely proportional to temperature. directly prop
ankoles [38]

<u>Answer:</u> Boyle's law states that gas volume is inversely proportional to pressure.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Boyle's law is one of the law used to determine the Ideal Gas equation.

This law states that pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles

Mathematically,

P\propto \frac{1}{V}          (at constant temperature and number of moles)

The above expression can also be written as:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1\text{ and }V_1 are initial pressure and volume of the gas

P_2\text{ and }V_2 are final pressure and volume of the gas

Hence, Boyle's law states that gas volume is inversely proportional to pressure.

Chloroform (CHCl3), an important solvent, is produced by a reaction between methane and chlorine. CH4(g) + 3 Cl2(g) CHCl3(g) + 3
PIT_PIT [208]
CH₄(g) + 3 Cl₂(g) → CHCl₃(g) + 3 HCl(g)
From the equation we notice that 1 mole of methane produces 1 mole of chloroform:
16 g Methane → 119.38 g Chloroform
?   g Methane → 37.5 g Chloroform
by cross multiplication:
= (16 * 37.5) / 119.38 = 5.0 g methane

sample of substance X has a mass of 326.0 g releases 4325.8 cal when it freezes at its freezing point. If substance X has a mola
ELEN [110]
Number of moles ( substance x ):

1 mole --------- 58.45 g/mol
? mole --------- 326.0 g

326.0 x 1 / 58.45 => 5.577 moles

 heat of fusion:

hf = Cal / moles

hf = 4325.8 Cal / 5.577 moles

hf = 775.65 cal/mol

hope this helps!
