A base turns red litmus paper blue, Its always red for acidic and blue for basic in most indicators.

Which of the following chemical reactions is the only reaction shown that would be predicted to occur based on the activity seri

Novosadov [1.4K]

B. Mn + NiBr₂ → Ni + MnBr₂

Explanation:

The reaction that can be predicted of all is Mn + NiBr₂ → Ni + MnBr₂.

The activity series is used to predict the products of single displacement reactions.

The series ranks metals in order of their reactivity. Those higher up in the series are highly reactive metals. Those at the bottom are slightly to non-reactive metals.

For a single displacement reaction to occur, a metal higher up in the activity series displaces one that is lower in the series.

Reaction A will not occur, Ba is higher in the series

Reaction C will not occur, Pt and Au are unreactive

Reaction D will not occur as Zn is lower in the series

Mn is higher in the reactivity series and it will displace Ni from the solution.

A 50.00 g sample of an unknown metal is heated to 45.00°C. It is then placed in a coffee-cup calorimeter filled with water. The

V125BC [204]

Taking into account the definition of calorimetry, the specific heat of metal is 0.165 $\frac{cal}{gC}$ .

<h3>Definition of calorimetry</h3>

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

Sensible heat is defined as the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state (phase change).

So, the equation that allows to calculate heat exchanges is:

Q = c× m× ΔT

where:

Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m.
C is the specific heat substance.
ΔT is the temperature variation.

<h3>Specific heat capacity of the metal</h3>

In this case, you know:

For metal:

Mass of metal = 50 g
Initial temperature of metal= 45 °C
Final temperature of metal= 11.08 ºC
Specific heat of metal= ?

For water:

Mass of water = 250 g
Initial temperature of water= 10 ºC
Final temperature of water= 11.08 ºC
Specific heat of water = 1.035 $\frac{cal}{gC}$

Replacing in the expression to calculate heat exchanges:

For metal: Qmetal= Specific heat of metal× 50 g× (11.08 C - 45 C)

For water: Qwater= 1.035 $\frac{cal}{gC}$ × 250 g× (11.08 C - 10 C)

If two isolated bodies or systems exchange energy in the form of heat, the quantity received by one of them is equal to the quantity transferred by the other body. That is, the total energy exchanged remains constant, it is conserved.

Then, the heat that the gold gives up will be equal to the heat that the water receives. Therefore:

- Qmetal = + Qwater

- Specific heat of metal× 50 g× (11.08 C - 45 C)= 1.035 $\frac{cal}{gC}$ × 250 g× (11.08 C - 10 C)

Solving:

- Specific heat of metal× 50 g× (-33.92 C)= 1.035 $\frac{cal}{gC}$ × 250 g× 1.08 C

Specific heat of metal× 1696 g×C= 279.45 cal

Specific heat of metal= $\frac{279.45 cal}{1696 gC}$
