Answer:
Explanation:
A sound knowledge of specific heat capacity of the metals is required in this case.
The specific heat capacity of a metal is the quantity of heat required to the raise the temperature of a unit mass of it by 1°C.
It is related to quantity of heat using the expression below;
H = m c Δt
where m is the mass
c is the specific heat capacity
Δt is the temperature change
let us make the specific the subject of the expression;
c = 
we can see that there is an inverse relationship between specific heat and temperature change.
The specific heat capacity of a body is an intensive property that is unique to the metal.
The higher the specific heat capacity, the lower the amount of temperature change in it.
Let us find the specific heat capacity of the given metals;
Aluminium 0.897J/gK
Iron 0.412J/gK
Silver 0.24J/gK
After the heat is supplied,
Silver > Iron > Aluminium in terms of temperature change
Answer:
37.3
263.5
Explanation:
The scale measures hundreds of units, tens of units, units, and parts of units (1 decimal place.
Scale 1
Hundreds 0 * 100 = 0
Tens: 3 * 10 = 30
Units: 7 * 1 = 7
1/10 unit = 3* 0.1 = 0.3
Total 30 + 7 + 0.3 = 37.3
Scale 2
Hundreds 2 * 100 = 200
Tens: 6 * 10 = 60
Units: 3 * 1 = 3
1/10 unit = 5* 0.1 = 0.5
Total = 200 + 60 + 3 + 0.5 = 263.5
The molar mass of a, b and c at STP is calculated as below
At STP T is always= 273 Kelvin and ,P= 1.0 atm
by use of ideal gas equation that is PV =nRT
n(number of moles) = mass/molar mass therefore replace n in the ideal gas equation
that is Pv = (mass/molar mass)RT
multiply both side by molar mass and then divide by Pv to make molar mass the subject of the formula
that is molar mass = (mass x RT)/ PV
density is always = mass/volume
therefore by replacing mass/volume in the equation by density the equation
molar mass=( density xRT)/P where R = 0.082 L.atm/mol.K
the molar mass for a
= (1.25 g/l x0.082 L.atm/mol.k x273k)/1.0atm = 28g/mol
the molar mass of b
=(2.86g/l x0.082L.atm/mol.k x273 k) /1.0 atm = 64 g/mol
the molar mass of c
=0.714g/l x0.082 L.atm/mol.K x273 K) 1.0atm= 16 g/mol
therefore the
gas a is nitrogen N2 since 14 x2= 28 g/mol
gas b =SO2 since 32 +(16x2)= 64g/mol
gas c = methaneCH4 since 12+(1x4) = 16 g/mol
Answer: "The reactants are higher in energy than the products"
Explanation:
The exothermic reactions are characterized by the release of heat to the surroundings. The reactants lose heat that is delivered to the surroundings which implies that the products will be lower in energy than the reactants.
The hills that you can see in a reaction energy diagram are not related with the final change of energy. The hills are an indication of the activation energy needed to start the reaction, but they do not measure the change of energy from the products to the reactants.
The enthalpy that is a state variable that identifies the content of heat. Then the change of enthalpy for the exothermic reactions is negative, meaning that the energy of the products is lower than the energy of the reactants.
