a 22.44g sample of iron absorbs 180.8 J of heat, upon which the temperature of the sample increases from 21.1C to 39.0/ what is

NeX [460]

Answer:

The specific heat of iron is 0.45 J/g.°C

Explanation:

The amount of heat absorbed by the metal is given by:

heat = m x Sh x ΔT

From the data, we have:

heat = 180.8 J

mass = m = 22.44 g

ΔT = Final temperature - Initial temperature = 39.0°C - 21.1 °C = 17.9°C

Thus, we calculate the specific heat of iron (Sh) as follows:

Sh = heat/(m x ΔT) = (180.8 J)/(22.44 g x 17.9°C) = 0.45 J/g.°C

Having studied the data for patterns and trends, you should now be able to draw

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The situation given here is imaginary such that the life of Rock has to be found using the half-life of the element lokium that has been found inside the rock.

Half-life of any material is the amount of time taken by that particular material to decay. Now the amount of lokium found in rock can show after how many half-lives this amount has been left out.

The time elapsed will be log (L) atoms X half-life.

What is the oxidation number of cl− in the hypochlorite ion clo−?

mariarad [96]

Answer : The oxidation number of chlorine (Cl) is, (+1)

Explanation :

Oxidation number : It represent the number of electrons lost or gained by the atoms of an element in a compound.

Oxidation numbers are generally written with the sign (+) and (-) first and then the magnitude.

When the atoms are present in their elemental state then the oxidation number will be zero.

Rules for Oxidation Numbers :

The oxidation number of a free element is always zero.

The oxidation number of a monatomic ion equals the charge of the ion.

The oxidation number of Hydrogen (H) is +1, but it is -1 in when combined with less electronegative elements.

The oxidation number of oxygen (O) in compounds is usually -2, but it is -1 in peroxides.

The oxidation number of a Group 1 element in a compound is +1.

The oxidation number of a Group 2 element in a compound is +2.

The oxidation number of a Group 17 element in a binary compound is -1.

The sum of the oxidation numbers of all of the atoms in a neutral compound is zero.

The sum of the oxidation numbers in a polyatomic ion is equal to the charge of the ion.

The given compound is, $ClO^-$

Let the oxidation state of 'Cl' be, 'x'

$x+(-2)=-1\\\\x-2=-1\\\\x=+1$

Therefore, the oxidation number of chlorine (Cl) is, (+1)

What happens to the potential energy of a book that is dropped from a desk to the floor?

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

D. It is converted into kinetic energy.

Explanation:

When a book is dropped from a desk to the floor, the potential energy of the book is converted to kinetic energy as it falls.

Potential energy of a body is the energy due to the position of the body.
At a particular height, the potential energy is maximum.
A body with mass and moving with velocity will have kinetic energy
As the book drops through the height, to conserve energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
