2 Points What happens when an amorphous solid breaks?

Chemistry

An amorphous solid is defined as one lacking crystalline structure. Since it doesn’t have structure, it breaks to form a relatively random, jagged edges rather than straight ones it may tend to shatter in prices rather than cleave along a crystal plane l (since there is no crystal plane to break along)

Answer:

Q14: 17,140 g = 17.14 kg.

Q16: 504 J.

Explanation:

<u><em>Q14:</em></u>

  • To solve this problem, we can use the relation:

<em>Q = m.c.ΔT,</em>

where, Q is the amount of heat absorbed by ice (Q = 3600 x 10³ J).

m is the mass of the ice (m = ??? g).

c is the specific heat of the ice (c of ice = 2.1 J/g.°C).

ΔT is the difference between the initial and final temperature (ΔT = final T - initial T = 100.0°C - 0.0°C = 100.0°C).

∵ Q = m.c.ΔT

∴ (3600 x 10³ J) = m.(2.1 J/g.°C).(100.0°C)

∴ m = (3600 x 10³ J)/(2.1 J/g.°C).(100.0°C) = 17,140 g = 17.14 kg.

<u><em>Q16:</em></u>

  • To solve this problem, we can use the relation:

<em>Q = m.c.ΔT,</em>

where, Q is the amount of heat absorbed by ice (Q = ??? J).

m is the mass of the ice (m = 12.0 g).

c is the specific heat of the ice (c of ice = 2.1 J/g.°C).

ΔT is the difference between the initial and final temperature (ΔT = final T - initial T = 0.0°C - (-20.0°C) = 20.0°C).

∴ Q = m.c.ΔT = (12.0 g)(2.1 J/g.°C)(20.0°C) = 504 J.

A metal pellet with a mass of 100.0 g, originally at 116°C, is dropped into a cup of water, initially at
Alina [70]

Answer:

C, 42g

Explanation:

In thermal equilibrium, both bodies (metal pellet and water) both have the same final temperature (46.3°C).

Assuming no heat is lost to surroundings,

the energy lost from metal pellet = energy gained for water

Since E = mc∆T

(energy = mass x specific heat capacity x temperature change)

mc∆T (metal pellet) = mc∆T (water)

100 x 0.568 x (116-46.3) = m 4.184 (46.3 - 23.8)

3958.96 = 94.14m

m = 42g

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Nitrifying Bacteria are a group of aerobic bacteria important in the nitrogen cycle as converters of soil ammonia to nitrates, compounds usable by plants. An example is nitrosomonas or nitrobacter and species in that family.

The schematic diagram is attached below, which summarises the oxidation of ammonia or free nitrogen in the soil to nitrates for the cowpea plant's utilisation.

When two species A and B form an electron-pair bond and A does not provide its electrons for bonding, the bond present between A
vichka [17]

Answer:

Ionic

Explanation:

If A does not have electron to bond, it just receives one electron from B.

It can´t be covalent because A don´t have any electrons to bond with B.

The molar heat of fusion of platinum (Pt) is 4.700 kcal/mol. How much heat must be added to 85.5 g of solid platinum at its melt
Andre45 [30]
The heat required to completely melt the given substance, platinum, we just have to convert first the given mass in mole and multiply the answer to its molar heat of fusion.. 
                              Hf  = mass x (1/molar mass) x molar heat of fusion
                            Hf = (85.5 g) x (1 mole/195.08 g) x 4.70 kcal/mol
                                   Hf = 2.06 kcal
