Specificity. It’s really loose to say that something is fast, since speed can be scalarly linked and relative. I could say that both a car on the highway is fast, but so is the speed of light. The actual speed of something helps to do away with the arbitrary nature of using “fast” and “slow”; however, we’re still at step one of the person who is receiving the information is unfamiliar with the scale that the actual speed is defined in.
Answer:
97 J
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
- Mass of the sample (m): 12 kg
- Specific heat capacity (c): 0.231 J/kg.°C (this can also be expressed as 0.231 J/kg.K)
- Initial temperature: 45 K
Step 2: Calculate the temperature change
ΔT = 80 K - 45 K = 35 K
Step 3: Calculate the heat required (Q)
We will use the following expression.
Q = c × m × ΔT
Q = 0.231 J/kg.K × 12 kg × 35 K = 97 J
The much of the sample that would remain unchanged after 140 seconds is 2.813 g
Explanation
Half life is time taken for the quantity to reduce to half its original value.
if the half life for Scandium is 35 sec, then the number of half life in 140 seconds
=140 sec/ 35 s = 4 half life
Therefore 45 g after first half life = 45 x1/2 =22.5 g
22.5 g after second half life = 22.5 x 1/2 =11.25 g
11.25 g after third half life = 11.25 x 1/2 = 5.625 g
5.625 after fourth half life = 5.625 x 1/2 = 2.813
therefore 2.813 g of Scandium 47 remains unchanged.
We need to first add both of the solution volumes together 35+115=150. Now we can divide the volume of the ethanol by the total volume 35/150=.233. To double check we can multiply the total volume by the percentage of ethanol by volume we got as a solution 150x.233=35. So the percentage by volume of ethanol in the solution is .233x100=23.3%.
