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)

Mercury (Hg) poisoning is a debilitating disease that is often fatal. In the human body, mercury reacts with essential enzymes l
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

6 x 10⁵ kg Hg

Explanation:

The mass of mercury in the entire lake is found by multiplying the concentration of the mercury by the volume of the lake.

The volume of the lake is calculated in cubic feet:

V = (SA)x(depth) = (100mi²)(5280ft/mi)² x (20ft) = 5.57568 x 10¹⁰ ft³

Cubic feet are then converted to mL (1cm³=1mL)

(5.57568 x 10¹⁰ ft³) x (12in/ft)³ x (2.54cm/in)³ = 1.578856752 x 10¹⁵ mL

The mass of mercury is then found:

m = CV = (0.4μg/mL)(1g/10⁶μg)(1kg/1000g) x (1.578856752 x 10¹⁵ mL) = 6 x 10⁵ kg Hg

What is the expected ionic charge when group VI elements participate in ionic bonds?
valina [46]
Group 6 elements usually have extra electrons to make give them an octet. So, they have 6 electrons to start and when they have an octet, they have 8.

We can find the charge by doing simple math 6 - 8 = -2

Answer is D)

A substance is a good conductor of electricity. Which of the following best explains the probable position of the substance in t
Mariana [72]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Elements present in group 1 are known as alkali metals. Whereas elements present in group 2 are called alkaline earth metals and elements from group 11 to 12 are transition metals.

As it is known that metals have the ability to lose electrons in order to attain stability and electricity is the flow of electrons from one point to another.

Therefore, metals are good conductors of heat and electricity.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement it’s between groups 1 to 12 because it is metal best explains the probable position of the substance in the periodic table.
