We do a heat balance to solve this:
(m cp ΔT)water = -(m cp ΔT)metal
100.8 (4.18) (27 - 22) = -65 (cp)(27-100)
cp = 100.8 (4.18) (27 - 22) / (-65 (27-100))
cp = 0.44 J/ (°C × g)
The specific heat of the metal is 0.44 J/ (°C × g)
Answer:
Nitrogen fixation is a chemical process by which molecular nitrogen in the air is converted into ammonia or related nitrogenous compounds in soil or aquatic systems. Atmospheric nitrogen is molecular dinitrogen, a relatively nonreactive molecule that is metabolically useless to all but a few microorganisms.
Explanation:
Answer:
Part A: 47.8 mi/h
Part B: 0.072 M/s
Part C: 0.144 M/s
Explanation:
Part A
The average speed or velocity (V) is the variation of the space divided by the variation of the time:
V = (241 - 2)/(8 -3)
V = 47.8 mi/h
Part B
As Part A, the average rate (r) of formation of I2 is the variation of the concentration divided by the variation of time:
r = (1.83 - 1.11)/(15 - 5)
r = 0.072 M/s
Part C
The rates of the substances are proportional of their number of moles (n) which are their coefficient, so:
rI2/nI2 = rHCl/nHCl
0.072/1 = rHCl/2
rHCl = 2*0.072
rHCl = 0.144 M/s
Answer:
A biology investigation usually starts with an observation—that is, something that catches the biologist’s attention. For instance, a cancer biologist might notice that a certain kind of cancer can't be treated with chemotherapy and wonder why this is the case. A marine ecologist, seeing that the coral reefs of her field sites are bleaching—turning white—might set out to understand why.
How do biologists follow up on these observations? How can you follow up on your own observations of the natural world? In this article, we’ll walk through the scientific method, a logical problem-solving approach used by biologists and many other scientists.
Explanation:
1 pound of coffee is said to yield 50 cups of coffee
So we need to find the pounds of coffee beans required to produce 250 cups
so if 50 cups need 1 pound of coffee beans
therefore 250 cups need - 1/50 x 250 = 5 pounds of coffee beans
since we have to find the amount of coffee beans needed in kg, we have to convert pounds to kg
1 pound = 0.45 kg
So if 1 pound is equivalent to 0.45 kg
then 5 pounds are equivalent to - 0.45 kg/pound x 5 pounds = 2.25 kg
therefore 2.25 kg of coffee beans are required
