8 0

Heat_1: Get the ice to 0 degrees

Convert 7 kg to grams

7 kg [1000 grams / 1 kg] = 7000 grams

Heat needed to get the the ice from - 9 to 0

deltat = 0 - -9 = 9 degrees

m = 7000 grams

c = 2.1 joules/gram

Heat_1 = m*c*deltat

Heat_1 = 7000 * 2.1 * 9

Heat_1 = 132,300 joules

Heat_2: Melt the ice.

There is no temperature change. The formula is 333 j/gram

Formula: H = mass * constant

H = 7000 g * 333 J / gram

H = 2331000 joules

Heat_3: Total amount of Joules needed.

2331000 + 132300 = 2 463 300 joules

Convert to Megajoules

2 463 300 joules * 1 megajoule / 1000000 = 2.63 megajoules.

Below are shown, for five metals, reduction reactions and standard electrode potential values. which of these metals is the leas

just olya [345]

Above question is incomplete. Complete question is attached below
........................................................................................................................
Solution:
Reduction potential of metal ions are provided below. Higher the value to reduction potential, greater is the tendency of metal to remain in reduced state.

In present case, reduction potential of Au is maximum, hence it is least prone to undergo oxidation. Hence, it is least reactive.

On other hand, reduction potential of Na is minimum, hence it is most prone to undergo oxidation. Hence, it is most reactive.

CH3CI, CF4, HCI, NH3 which would have the lowest boiling point

Sergio [31]

Boiling point of a compound is determined by the strength of intermolecular forces of attraction between the molecules present in it. Stronger the intermolecular forces of attraction, higher will be the boiling point.

Ionic compounds show ion-ion interactions which are the strongest among all. Ion-dipole interactions are shown when ionic solutes are dissolved in polar solvents. Hydrogen bonding is also a relatively stronger force that is present between H atom and an electronegative atom like F, O and N( $NH_{3}$ ) . All polar molecules show dipole-dipole interaction ( $CH_{3}Cl$ and $HCl$ ). Dispersion forces are the weakest intermolecular forces due to momentary dipoles between electron clouds and nucleus.

Among the given compounds, $CF_{4}$ has dispersion forces as the major intermolecular forces of attraction. So they they exhibit the weakest IMF, hence have the lowest boiling point.
