In an experiment, 26.5 g of metal was heated to 98.0°c and then quickly transferred to 150.0 g of water in a calorimeter. the in

itial temperature of the water was 20.0°c, and the final temperature after the addition of the metal was 32.5°c. assume the calorimeter behaves ideally and does not absorb or release heat.

This is a common laboratory experiment called calorimetry which determines the specific heat capacity of the sample metal. 

By the Conservation of Energy,

Energy of Metal = Energy of Water
mCmetalΔT = mCwaterΔT, wherein Cwater = 4.187 J/g·°C
(26.5 g)(Cmetal)(98 - 32.5°C) = (150 g)(4.187 J/g·°C)(32.5 - 20°C)
Solving for Cmetal,
<em>Cmetal = 4.523 J/g·°C</em>

On a warm summer day in Oslo, the temperature is 21 degree C and the relative humidity is 70%. What is the absolute humidity? Wh
lesya [120]

Explanation:

According to the psychrometric chart at dry bulb temperature of 21^{o}C and RH 70%, the absolute humidity = 0.011 kg/kg dry air

Formula to calculate humid volume is as follows.

       \nu_{H} m^{3}/kg dry air = \frac{22.41}{273}TK (\frac{1}{28.97} + \frac{1}{18.02}H)

                     = (2.83 \times 10^{-3} + 4.56 \times 10^{-3} H) T K

                     = (2.83 \times 10^{-3} + 4.56 \times 10^{-3} \times 0.011) \times 294

                       = 0.847 m^{3}/kg dry air

Hence, humid volume of air is 0.847 m^{3}/kg dry air.

Specific enthalpy of dry air  = specific heat capacity of dry air × dry bulb temperature

                    = 1.006 kJ/kg ^{o}C \times 21^{o}C

                    = 21.126 kJ/kg dry air

Hence, the specific enthalpy of the air is 21.126 kJ/kg dry air.

As per the psychrometric chart at given conditions wet bulb temperature = 17.5 ^{o}C

As per the psychrometric chart at given conditions dew point temperature = 15.5 ^{o}C

The concentration of the stock solution she needs is 100 milli molar (mm) and she needs to make 1.2 milli liters (ml) solution o
Lera25 [3.4K]
Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute in 1 L of solution 
molarity of stock solution to be prepared - 100 x 10⁻³ mol/L
volume of stock solution to be prepared - 1.2 mL 
Therefore number of moles in 1.2 mL - 100 x 10⁻³ mol/L x 1.2 x 10⁻³ L 
number of moles of drug - 1.2 x 10⁻⁴ mol 
mass of drug required - 1.2 x 10⁻⁴ mol x 181.6 g/mol = 21. 8 mg
21.8 g of drug is required to make the stock solution

The mass number of an atom is 15, and its atomic number is 7. The atom probably has... 8 neutrons in the nucleus. about as much
Artist 52 [7]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number is the sum of only total number of protons present in an element. Whereas mass number is the sum of total number of both protons and neutrons present in an element.

For example, given atom has mass number as 15 and its atomic number is 7.

Therefore, number of neutrons present in it will be calculated as follows.

                    Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

                         15 = 7 + no. of neutrons

                    no. of neutrons = 15 - 7

                                               = 8

Thus, we can conclude that the given atom contains 8 neutrons in the nucleus.
