Answer:
c = 0.898 J/g.°C
Explanation:
1) Given data:
Mass of water = 23.0 g
Initial temperature = 25.4°C
Final temperature = 42.8° C
Heat absorbed = ?
Solution:
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
Specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/g°C
ΔT = 42.8°C - 25.4°C
ΔT = 17.4°C
Q = 23.0 g × × 4.18 J/g°C × 17.4°C
Q = 1672.84 j
2) Given data:
Mass of metal = 120.7 g
Initial temperature = 90.5°C
Final temperature = 25.7 ° C
Heat released = 7020 J
Specific heat capacity of metal = ?
Solution:
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
ΔT = 25.7°C - 90.5°C
ΔT = -64.8°C
7020 J = 120.7 g × c × -64.8°C
7020 J = -7821.36 g.°C × c
c = 7020 J / -7821.36 g.°C
c = 0.898 J/g.°C
Negative sign shows heat is released.
This question can be easily confused with. During the early times, organic compound are directly associated with living beings, people, plants and animals. That is somewhat true. The definition of organic compounds are compounds that contain carbon. So, it is true that most of the compounds in our body are organic. But you may confuse it to the abundance of elements in the body, which is oxygen. However, the most abundant element, besides carbon, in organic compounds is Hydrogen. You will notice this obviously in the organic compounds like alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, carbohydrates, lipids, hormones and proteins. Their general chemical formula usually involves Carbon and Hydrogen.
I don’t see what you need help with but thanks:)
