You are correct, but you needn't worry about the signs so much. Just remember that the negative sign is used to denote a loss of energy; since the water is hotter, it will be losing energy (-Q) and the iron will gain energy (Q). Now, we substitute the values:
-149.3 * 4.184 * (T - 95) = 412 * 0.44 * (T - 5)
Solving this equation for T,
T = 74.8 °C

A sealed can of your favorite soda has a carbon dioxide gas (C0) volume of 0.05 L. When it is refrigerated, the

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The new pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

$P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$

Since we are finding the new volume

$V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2} \\$

From the question we have

$V_2 = \frac{207000 \times 0.05}{101000} = \frac{10350}{101000} \\ = 0.102475...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Electron A falls from energy level X to energy level Y and releases blue light. Electron B falls from energy level Y to energy l

MrMuchimi

Answer: Transition from X to Y will have greater energy difference.

Explanation: For studying the energy difference, we require Planck's equation.

$E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}$

where, h = Planck's Constant

c = Speed of light

E = Energy

$\lambda$ = Wavelength of particle

From the equation, it is visible that the energy and wavelength follow inverse relation which means that with low wavelength value, energy will be the highest and vice-versa.

As electron A falls from X-energy level to Y-energy level, it releases blue light which has low wavelength value (around 470 nm) which means that it has high energy.

Similarly, Electron B releases red light when it falls from Y-energy level to Z-energy level, which has high wavelength value (around 700 nm), giving it a low energy value.

Energy Difference between X-energy level and Y-energy level will be more.
