Why is copper (i) sulfate Cu2So4^-2? not copper (ii)?
const2013 [10]
Copper (I) oxidation state is 1 Cu2So4
copper (II) oxidation state is +2 CuSo4
copper (i) also give up one electron so you need two of them to react with the sulfate ion (which has charge of -2)
and also all metallic ions have an multiple oxidation levels corresponding to the number of electrons they can exchange or loose
Hope this helps

A piece of an unknown substance weighing 124.0 grams is heated in boiling water to 100.0oc. when the substance is placed in a ca
MakcuM [25]

The heat cause 300g water temperature increase from 20 to 26 celcius. The heat transferred would be: 300g * (26 °C -20 °C) *4.2 joule/gram °C= 7560J

The unknown substance is added to the water, so its final temperature should be the same as the water. The calculation would be:

7560J= 124g * (100-26)* specific heat

specific heat= 7560J / 124g / 74 °C= 0.8238 J/gram °C
