A 0.500-g sample of KCl is added to 50.0g of water in a calprimeter (Figure 5.12) If the temperature decreases by 1.05C. what is

the approximate amount of heat involved in the dissolution of the KCl , assuming the heat capacity of the resulting solution is 4.18 J/gC? Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic?

Answer : The reaction is endothermic.

Explanation :

Formula used :

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

where,

\Delta T = change in temperature = 1.05^oC

Q = heat involved in the dissolution of KCl = ?

m = mass = 0.500 + 50.0 = 50.5 g

c = specific heat of resulting solution = 4.18J/g^oC

Now put all the given value in the above formula, we get:

Q=50.5g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times 1.05^oC

Q=+221.64J

The heat involved in the dissolution of KCl is positive that means as the change in temperature decreases then the reaction is endothermic and as the change in temperature increases then the reaction is exothermic.

Hence, the reaction is endothermic.

By studying the distribution of different types of fossils, geologists have determined that some plates have traveled great dist
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

A. Fossils of organisms that lived in warm climates have been found in arctic environments.

Explanation:

One of the logic used by Geologists to justify plate movement over a region of space is that the fossils of organisms that lived in warm climates have been found in arctic environments.

  • this is as a result of plate tectonics.
  • organisms that are well adapted to warm climates in times past have their relics preserved as fossils.
  • their fossils are no found today around the arctic environment which are cold
  • this suggests that the plate must have drifted or moved

Why is peer review important when publishing experimental results?
erastovalidia [21]
When publishing experimental results, it is always advisable to have your peer review those results. This peer can confirm the results that you got and thus they will be more reliable.

Also, you will be sure that what what you are publishing is correctly presented as it is always good to have a fresh eya to double-check what is written.

A car reaches 80 km/hr, then suddenly crashed into a concrete wall. Without a seat
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

inertia

inertia is the reluctance of an object at rest or moving to change its state of rest or motion

because the car was moving, the dummy moves with the speed of the car..so when the crash happened the dummy continued to move..it was feeling reluctant to come to rest so was moving
