Answer: c = 0.39 cal/g°C or

1.63 J/g°C

Explanation: To find the specific heat of the metal we will use the formula of heat which is Q= mc∆T.

We will derive for c, c = Q / m∆T

25.0 cal/ 4.0 g ( 36°C - 20°C)

= 0.39 cal / g°C

Or we can convert calories to joules.

0.39 cal x 4.184 J/ 1 cal

= 1.63 J /g°C

ankoles [38]

Answer:

n_{NH_3}=0.18molNH_3

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

H_3PO_4(aq)+3NH_3(l)\rightarrow (NH_4)_3PO_4

In such a way, considering the 3 to 1 molar relationship between ammonia and ammonium phosphate, the moles of ammonia result:

n_{NH_3}=0.060mol(NH_4)_3PO_4*\frac{3molNH_3}{1mol(NH_4)_3PO_4}\\n_{NH_3}=0.18molNH_3

Best regards.

Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a gaseous compound. Calculate the percent composition of this compound. Answer using three significant f
Tamiku [17]

Carbon dioxide is a gaseous molecule made up of the elements, C and O. Each mole of carbon dioxide has one mole C and two mole oxygen atoms.

Molar mass of carbon dioxide (CO_{2})=(1 * 12.01\frac{g}{mol}) +(2* 16\frac{g}{mol})=44.01\frac{g}{mol}

Percentage by mass of carbon = \frac{(1*12.01\frac{g}{mol}) }{44.01\frac{g}{mol} } *100=27.3%

Percentage by mass of oxygen = \frac{(2*16\frac{g}{mol})}{44.01\frac{g}{mol} } *100=72.7%

Therefore C is 27.3 % and O is 72.7 % by mass in 1 mol CO_{2}

photoshop1234 [79]

<span>I’ve answered this question before so if these are the choices to the question presented:

An oxygen atom double-bonded to a carbon atom, with a hydrogen atom single-bonded to the same carbon atom. </span><span>

<span>A hydrogen atom covalently bonded to an oxygen atom, which is covalently bonded to a carbon in the carbon chain. </span>

<span>A carbon atom single-bonded between two other carbon atoms, with an oxygen atom double-bonded to the central carbon atom as well. </span>

<span>An oxygen atom single-bonded between two carbon atoms within a carbon chain. 


Then, the answer would be “a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to an oxygen atom, which is covalently bonded to a carbon in the carbon chain.<span>”</span></span></span>

What is the iupac name of this structure?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

3–ethyl–4–methylhexane.

Explanation:

To name the above compound, do the following:

1. Determine the functional group of the compound.

2. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

3. Identify the substituent group attached to the compound.

4. Give the substituent the lowest possible count.

5. Combine the above to name the compound.

Now, we shall name the compound given in the question above as follow:

1. The compound contains only single bond. Therefore, the compound belong to the alkane family.

2. The longest continuous carbon chain is 6 i.e hexane.

3. The substituent group attached are:

i. Methyl, CH3.

ii. Ethyl, CH2CH3.

4. we shall name the substituents alphabetically i.e ethly will come before methyl. Therefore,

Ethyl is located at carbon 3.

Methy is located at carbon 4.

5. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

3–ethyl–4–methylhexane.
