Answer:

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 0.82 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Energy absorbs (q) = 85 J

Change in temperature (Δt) = 34.9 - 21 = 13.9°C  

Mass of calcium carbonate = 7.47 g

Find:

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C)

Computation:

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = q / m(Δt)

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 85 / (7.47)(13.9)

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 85 / 103.833

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 0.8186

Specific heat of calcium carbonate(C) = 0.82 (Approx)

A 125g sample of a mixture of salt and sand contains 12% salt.
natka813 [3]
12 % salt is present in 125 g mixture of salt and sand.
Keep in mind that the total percentage is always 100 %
Therefore, if 12 % is the salt, remaining 88 % must be
sand.
a. The amount of mixture is 125 q. Here, 12 % of 125 is
12 * 125 / 100 = 15 g of salt is present in 125 g mixture.
b. The amount of sand can be calculated similarly, 88 %
of 125 g is 88 * 125 / 100 = 110 g of sand is present in
125 g mixture.

Identify the type of reaction described in the sentence below. then, write a chemical equation. be sure to specify the states of
natulia [17]

Answer : The type of reaction described in the sentence is Synthesis or Combination

Explanation :

The balanced equation for the reaction between Phosphorous and Oxygen gas can be written as

4P (s) + 5O_{2} (g) ------>  P_{4} O_{10}  (s)

From the above equation we can see that there are two different reactants ( P and O₂ ) which are combining with each other to give a single product.

This type of reaction is known as Combination or Synthesis.

A general form of Synthesis reaction is given below.

A + B ---->  AB

Here we can conclude that a synthesis / combination reaction is the one where 2 or more reactants combine together to give only one product .

3.0 x 108 m/s is the
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Speed of light

Explanation:

The value 3.0 x 10⁸m/s is taken as the speed of light.

It is a constant.

  • It implies that light travels a distance of 3 x 10⁸ in just one second.
  • This value is for the speed of light in a vacuum when there are not particles obstructing its movement.
  • The speed of electromagnetic radiations in free space is also taken as the speed of light.
