Answer:

Pb is the substance that experiments the greatest temperature change.

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity refers to the amount of heat energy required to raise in 1 degree the temperature of 1 gram of substance. The highest the heat capacity, the more energy it would be required. These variables are related through the equation:

Q = c . m . ΔT

where,

Q is the amount of heat energy provided (J)

c is the specific heat capacity (J/g.°C)

m is the mass of the substance

ΔT is the change in temperature

Since the question is about the change in temperature, we can rearrange the equation like this:

\Delta T = \frac{Q}{c.m}

All the substances in the options have the same mass (m=10.0g) and absorb the same amount of heat (Q=100.0J), so the change in temperature depends only on the specific heat capacity. We can see in the last equation that they are inversely proportional; the lower c, the greater ΔT. Since we are looking for the greatest temperature change, It must be the one with the lowest c, namely, Pb with c = 0.128 J/g°C. This makes sense because Pb is a metal and therefore a good conductor of heat.

Its change in temperature is:

\Delta T = \frac{q}{c.m} = \frac{100.0 J}{0.128 J/g.C . 10.0g } = 78.1

<u>Pb</u> would show the greatest temperature change upon absorbing 100.0 J of heat , which is : 78.125  ° C

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The law of conservation of energy can be applied to heat changes, i.e. the heat received / absorbed is the same as the heat released

Q in = Q out

Heat can be calculated using the formula:

<h3>Q = mc∆T </h3>

Q = heat, J

m = mass, g

c = specific heat, joules / g ° C

∆T = temperature difference, ° C / K

\rm \Delta T=\dfrac{Q}{m.c}

Because temperature change is inversely proportional to the value of c (heat capacity) and because the mass of an element / compound is equal = 10 g,and the heat absorbed also the same, then the greatest temperature change upon absorbing 100.0J of heat is the one with the smallest heat capacity (c), namely: Pb with C Pb = 0.128J / g ° C

\rm \Delta T=\dfrac{100}{10\times 0.128}\\\\\Delta T=78.125\:C

What is the ph of a 0.01 m solution of the strong acid hno3 in water?
kumpel [21]
Answer is: pH <span>of a 0,01 M solution is 2.
c(HNO</span>₃) = 0,01 M = 0,01 mol/L.
pH = -log(c(HNO₃).
pH = -log(0,01 mol/L).
pH = 2.
pH<span> is a numeric scale used to specify the </span>acidity<span> or </span>basicity<span> of an </span>aqueous solution<span>. If pH is less than seven, than solution is acidic and if pH is greater seven, solution is basic, if pH is equal seven, solution is neutral.</span>

What is carboxylic acid?​
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Carboxylic acid

A carboxylic acid is an organic acid that contains a carboxyl group attached to an R-group. The general formula of a carboxylic acid is R−COOH or R−CO₂H, with R referring to the alkyl, alkenyl, aryl, or other group. Carboxylic acids occur widely. Important examples include the amino acids and fatty acids.

A neutral solution has a(n) _______ amount of hydroxide ions compared to hydrogen ions.
erastovalidia [21]
The answer is 'equal'. Hydroxide ions are OH- and Hydrogen ions are H+. Have you noticed they're opposite charges? Positive + negative = neutral. That's all there is to it :)
