Now we have 4 pieces of data and want a single result. The data is:
Mass: 100.0 g
Starting temperature: 25.0°C
Ending temperature: 31.5°C
Specific heat: 1.00 cal/(g*°C)
And we want a result with the unit "cal". Now you need to figure out what set of math operations will give you the desired result. Turns out this is quite simple. First, you need to remember that you can only add or subtract things that have the same units. You may multiply or divide data items with different units and the units can combine or cancel each other. So let's solve this:
Let's start with specific heat with the unit "cal/(g*°C)". The cal is what we want, but we'ld like to get rid of the "/(g*°C)" part. So let's multiply by the mass:
1.00 cal/(g*°C) * 100.0 g = 100.0 cal/°C
We now have a simpler unit of "cal/°C", so we're getting closer. Just need to cancel out the "/°C" part, which we can do with a multiplication. But we have 2 pieces of data using "°C". We can't multiply both of them, that would give us "cal*°C" which we don't want. But we need to use both pieces. And since we're interested in the temperature change, let's subtract them. So
31.5°C - 25.0°C = 6.5°C
So we have a 6.5°C change in temperature. Now let's multiply:
6.5°C * 100.0 cal/°C = 6500.0 cal
Since we only have 3 significant digits in our least precise piece of data, we need to round the result to 3 significant figures. 6500 only has 2 significant digits, and 6500. has 4. But we can use scientific notation to express the result as 6.50x10^3 which has the desired 3 digits of significance. So the result is 6.50x10^3 calories.
Just remember to pay attention to the units in the data you have. They will pretty much tell you exactly what to add, subtract, multiply, or divide.</span>
Atoms, the main constituents of matter, consist of positively charged protons and neutral neutrons within a nucleus which are surrounded by a sea of electrons that sit in distinct shells. The electrons on the outer shell are known as valence electrons. The valence can be descibed as the smaller number of electrons an atom has to borrow or to lend, the greater the activity.
The answer is B.
Answer:
A. the charge on their ions
Explanation:
Elements are grouped into the same group in the periodic table if they have the same valence electrons. However, the number of valence electrons an element has, determines the number of charges it can possess.
According to this question, two elements in the same group of the periodic table will have the same charge on their ions because they both have the same number of valence electrons.
You have to move higher; potential energy depends on height and mass.
Answer:
6-hydroxyhexanoic acid
Explanation:
5-hydroxypentanoic acid will form a 7 member group, while 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid will form a 6 member group.
In polymerization, polymers with 6 member groups are more stable than the ones with 7 member groups. This means that 6-hydroxyhexanoic acid will have a higher chance of polymerization, and therefore give a greater yield of polymers, than 5-hydroxypentanoic acid.
