Alright sorry you're getting the answer hours later, but i can help with this.
so you're looking for specific heat, the equation for it is <span>macaΔTa = - mbcbΔTb with object a and object b. that's mass of a times specific heat of a times final minus initial temperature of a equals -(mass of b times specific heat of b times final minus initial temperature of b)
</span>so putting in your values is, 755g * ca * (75 celsius - 84.5 celsius) = -(50g * cb * (75 celsius - 5 celsius))
well we know the specific heat of water is always 4180J/kg celsius, so put that in for cb
with a bit of simplification to the equation by doing everything on each side first you have, -7172.5 * ca = -14630000
divide both sides by -7172.5 so you can single out ca and you get, ca= 2039.74
add units for specific heat which are J/kg celsius and the specific heat of the material is 2039.74 J/kg celsius

Whether or not the process is observed in nature, which of the following could account for the transformation of gallium-67 to z
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Option a: positron emission.

Explanation:

In the transformation we have:

⁶⁷Ga  →  ⁶⁷Zn  

The reaction is:

^{67}_{Z}X \rightarrow ^{67}_{Z -1}Y

For Ga to become Zn, the atom nucleus has to lose a proton, so in the given options, the reaction that involves the transformation of a proton is the option a, positron emission.

In a positron emission, a proton becomes into a neutron and a positron:

^{A}_{Z}X \rightarrow ^{A}_{Z-1}Y + ^{0}_{+1}e

Therefore, the correct answer is option a: positron emission.

I hope it helps you!

Consider this reaction at equilibrium at a total pressure P1: 2SO2(g) + O2(g) → 2SO3(g) Suppose the volume of this system is c
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The new equilibrium total pressure will be  increased to one-half to initial total pressure.

Explanation:

From the information given :

The equation of the reaction can be represented as;

2SO_{2(g)}+O_{2(g)} \to2SO_{3(g)}

From above equation:

2 moles of sulphur dioxide reacts with 1 mole of oxygen  (i.e 2 moles +1 mole  =3 moles ) to give 2 moles of sulphur trioxide

So; suppose the volume of this system is compressed to one-half its initial volume and then equilibrium is reestablished.

So if this process takes place ; the equilibrium will definitely shift to the side with fewer moles , thus the equilibrium will shift to the right. As such; there is increase in pressure.

Let the total pressure at the initial equilibrium be P_1

and the total pressure at the final equilibrium be P_2

According to Boyle's Law; Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to the volume, provided the temperature remains constant.

Thus;

P ∝  1/V

P = K/V

PV = K

where K = constant

So;

PV = constant

Hence;

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

From the foregoing; since the volume is decreased to one- half to initial Volume; then ,

V_2 =  \dfrac{V_1}{\dfrac{3}{2}} ----- (1)

also;

Thus ;

P_1V_1 = P_2(  \dfrac{V_1}{\frac{3}{2}})

P_1V_1 = P_2 * 2  \dfrac{V_1}{3}

3 P_1 V_1 = 2 P_2 V_1

Dividing both sides by V_1

3P_1 = 2P_2

P_2 =P_1 \dfrac{3}{2}  ----- (2)

From ;

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

P_2 V_2 = P_1 * \dfrac{3}{2}* \dfrac{V_1}{\frac{3}{2}}

P_2 V_2 = P_1 * \dfrac{3}{2}*   \dfrac{2 }{3}}*V_1

P_2 V_2 = P_1 V_1

Thus; The new equilibrium total pressure will be  increased to one-half to initial total pressure.

key A 0.150 M sodium chloride solution is referred to as a physiological saline solution because it has the same concentration o
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

2.41065 grams

Explanation:

Here we have to apply molarity, particularly in reference to the equation molarity = moles of solute / volume. I would like to rewrite this formula, but with respect to the units - grams = moles / Liters,

We can use molarity to determine the number of moles. After doing so, we can determine the mass of the solute with respect to the formula moles = mass / molar mass. The molar mass of NaCl is 58.44 grams.

_______________________________________________________

275 mL = 0.275 L,

Number of Moles of NaCl = 0.150 * 0.275 = 0.04125 moles,

Mass = 0.04125 * 58.44 = 2.41065 grams,

Solution - Mass of NaCl = 2.41065 grams
