Answer : The initial temperature of water (in ^{0}celcius) = 77.108^{0}C  

Solution : Given,

Mass of gold = 15.23 g

Mass of water = 28 g

Initial temperature of gold = 53^{0}C  

Final temperature of gold = 62^{0}C

Final temperature of water = 62^{0}C

Heat capacity of gold = 12.9J/g^{0}C

Heat capacity of water = 4.18J/g^{0}C

The formula used for calorimetry is,

q = m × c × ΔT

where,

q = heat required

m = mass of an element

c = heat capacity

ΔT = change in temperature

In the calorimetry, the energy as heat lost by the system is equal to the gained by the surroundings.

Now the above formula converted and we get

q_{system}= - q_{surrounding}

m_{system}\times c_{system}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})_{system}= -[m_{surrounding}\times c_{surrounding}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})_{surrounding}]

m_{gold}\times c_{gold}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})_{gold}= -[m_{water}\times c_{water}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})_{water}]

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

15.23g\times 12.9J/g^{0}C \times (62^{0}C-53^{0}C )= -[28g\times 4.18J/g^{0}C \times (62^{0}C-T_{\text{ initial of water}})]

By rearranging the terms, we get

T_{\text{ initial water}=77.108^{0}C

Thus the initial temperature of water = 77.108^{0}C

To determine the electronegativity for each bond you need to calculate the difference of electronegativity of the atoms forming the bond.  

If the difference is equal or greater than 1.7 you have an ionic bond.

If the difference is between 0.4 and 1.6  you have a polar covalent bond.

If the difference is between 0 and less than 0.4 you have a nonpolar covalent bond.  

1) In NH₃ there is a nitrogen - hydrogen bond.  

electronegativity of nitrogen - electronegativity of hydrogen =

3 - 2.2 = 0.8 → polar covalent bond

2) In N₂ there is a nitrogen-nitrogen bond.

electronegativity of nitrogen - electronegativity of nitrogen =

3 - 3 = 0 → nonpolar covalent bond

3) In H₂O there is an oxygen - hydrogen bond.  

electronegativity of oxygen - electronegativity of hydrogen =

3.5 - 2.2 = 1.3 → polar covalent bond

4) In PCl₃ there is a chlorine - phosphorus bond.  

electronegativity of chlorine - electronegativity of phosphorus = 3 - 2.1 = 0.9 → polar covalent bond

4) In HBr there is a bromine - hydrogen bond.  

electronegativity of bromine - electronegativity of hydrogen = 2.8 - 2.2 = 0.6 → polar covalent bond

5) In MgCl₂ there is a chlorine - magnesium bond.  

electronegativity of chlorine - electronegativity of magnesium = 3 - 1.2 = 1.8 → ionic bond

6) In F₂ there is a fluorine - fluorine  bond.  

electronegativity of fluorine - electronegativity of fluorine =

4 - 4 = 0 → nonpolar covalent bond

7) In CO₂ there is an oxygen - carbon bond.  

electronegativity of oxygen- electronegativity of carbon =

3.5 - 2.5 = 1 → polar covalent bond

8) In LiCl there is a chlorine - lithium bond.  

electronegativity of chlorine - electronegativity of lithium =

3 - 1 = 2 → ionic bond

9) In Na₂O there is an oxygen - sodium bond.

electronegativity of oxygen - electronegativity of sodium =

3.5 - 0.9 = 2.6 → ionic bond

10)  In CCl₄ there is a chlorine - carbon bond.  

electronegativity of chlorine - electronegativity of carbon =

3 - 2.5 = 0.5 → polar covalent bond

. What happens the pH of an acid solution as a base is added?​
Dmitrij [34]

As a base is added to an acidic solution, the H+ ions in solution that make it acidic are slowly neutralized into water (via OH-, the base). As these ions are converted into water the concentration of them decreases, so the pH decreases, as they are directly related.

Hope this helps!

Which elements are in the same period?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Elements that are in the same period have chemical properties that are not all that similar. Consider the first two members of period 3: sodium (Na) and magnesium (Mg). In reactions, they both tend to lose electrons (after all, they are metals), but sodium loses one electron, while magnesium loses two.
