<u>Answer:</u> The specific heat of metal is 0.821 J/g°C
<u>Explanation:</u>
When metal is dipped in water, the amount of heat released by metal will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by water.

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

......(1)
where,
q = heat absorbed or released
= mass of metal = 30 g
= mass of water = 100 g
= final temperature = 25°C
= initial temperature of metal = 110°C
= initial temperature of water = 20.0°C
= specific heat of metal = ?
= specific heat of water = 4.186 J/g°C
Putting values in equation 1, we get:
![30\times c_1\times (25-110)=-[100\times 4.186\times (25-20)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=30%5Ctimes%20c_1%5Ctimes%20%2825-110%29%3D-%5B100%5Ctimes%204.186%5Ctimes%20%2825-20%29%5D)

Hence, the specific heat of metal is 0.821 J/g°C
Answer:
1. The electronic configuration of X is: 1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
2. The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
3. The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given as: XY
Explanation:
For X to loss two electrons, it means X is a group 2 element. X can be any element in group 2. The electronic configuration of X is:
1s2 2s2 sp6 3s2
To get the electronic configuration of the anion of element Y, let us find the configuration of element Y. This is done as follows:
Y receives two electrons from X to complete its octet. Therefore Y is a group 6 element. The electronic configuration of Y is given below
1s2 2s2 2p4
The configuration of the anion of Y (i.e Y^2-) is 1s2 2s2 2p6
The formula of the compound form by X and Y is given below :
X^2+ + Y^2- —> XY
Their valency will cancel out thus forming XY
