We do a heat balance to solve this:
(m cp ΔT)water = -(m cp ΔT)metal
100.8 (4.18) (27 - 22) = -65 (cp)(27-100)
cp = 100.8 (4.18) (27 - 22) / (-65 (27-100))
cp = 0.44 J/ (°C × g)
The specific heat of the metal is 0.44 J/ (°C × g)
Answer:
condensation is the answer
Hey there!:
H is always +1 so the H's have a +3 charge.
O is always -2 so the O's have a -8 charge .
Now, suppose oxidation state for P = X , then :
+3 + X + (-8) = 0 (because of neutral molecule)
x = 8 - 3
x = + 5
So, X = +5 oxidation state.
Answer C
Hope that helps!
