The specific heat of liquid ethyl alcohol is 2.42 j/g C and its density of 0.7893 g/mL. A piece of solid sliver (specific heat 0

.24 J/g C) was heated to
95 C and placed in 25.6 mL of ethyl alcohol that had a temp of 19.27 C. The final temp of alcohol and silver was 23.5 C. How many grams of silver were used?

First off, as any good chemist would tell you, we have to know if this is an isolated system or not, or else there could be energy (namely heat) that could escape the system or matter from evaporation and stuff.

SOLUTION

25.6 (volume) * 0.7893 (density) = mass of the ethyl alcohol 
If it was heated to 19.27 degrees Celsius, this translates to 292.27 Kelvin. The specific heat of liquid ethyl alcohol is 2.42 j/(g*C), which is the same as 2.42 j/(g*K), therefore it has in total 2.42 * 292.27 * 25.6 * 0.7893 Joules of heat.

The silver has x grams, and its specific heat is 0.24 J/g*C = 0.24 J/g*K. If it was heated up to 95 degrees, that means it was heated to 368 degrees Kelvin. Therefore it 368 * 0.24 * x Joules of heat.

If the final temperature was 23.5 degrees Celsius of the entire thing, than the ethyl alcohol had 2.42 * 296.5 * 25.6 * 0.7893 Joules of heat. Getting the difference of the first state and the second state, we get 2.42 * (296.5 - 292.27) * 25.6 * 0.7893 Joules. This was added to the silver, which now has 296.5 * 0.24 * x Joules of heat. Subtracting the first state from the second state we get (296.5-368) * 0.25 * x Joules. The absolute value of this equals 2.42 * (296.5 - 292.27) * 25.6 * 0.7893 Joules. Doing all the math out, 206.84155853 = 17.16x.

Therefore x = 12.05 grams.

There are 12.05 grams of silver.

Name three properties of solids that are different from those of liquids. Explain the differences for each.
olga55 [171]
1) Solids have a fixed shape
The particles of solids are held into their positions and are only able to vibrate about fixed points. The strength of the bonding means that the particles have their own shape, which they retain, and do not take the form of the container they are in.

2) Solids may not flow
The molecules of liquids are able to slide past one another due to weaker bonds between particles. This allows the liquid to flow; whereas, this movement is not possible in solids so they cannot flow.

3) Solids may fracture
The fact that solids possess a rigid structure means that they have the ability to fracture. Although some are able to withstand more stress than others, all solids may break. This breakage occurs when the intermolecular bonds are mechanically broken. This is not possible in the case of liquids because such rigid intermolecular bonds do not exist.

sveta [45]

Answer:

The correct option is B

Explanation:

CPR means cardiopulmonary resuscitation. CPR is done as a first aid in emergency situations such as heart attack, rescued drowned patient and other situations that causes an individual's breathing or heartbeat to stop. CPR is done so the heart can resume it's function of supplying oxygenated blood to the body organs (especially the brain).

Checking the pulse is quite important while performing CPR because it's a direct measurement of the heart rate which can be used to know the effectiveness of the CPR or the progress made during the course of the CPR. Unfortunately, CPR mannequins are plastics/rubbers and hence cannot have real pulse.
