Answer:

viruses are similar to organisms because they can multiply.

Explanation:

they are different because they are not alive. they are not cells, they do not use their own energy to grow or respond to their surrounding .

811.68 J of energy are used on a 95g chunk of unknown metal. Calculate the resulting temperature change if the specific heat of
Ivan

Answer:

16 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Provided heat (Q): 811.68 J
  • Mass of the metal (m): 95 g
  • Specific heat capacity of the metal (c): 0.534 J/g.°C

Step 2: Calculate the temperature change (ΔT) experienced by the metal

We will use the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

ΔT = Q/c × m

ΔT = 811.68 J/(0.534 J/g.°C) × 95 g = 16 °C

1. Name three obstacles that Mendeleev faced in his life? ​
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

was difficult to place isotopes of elements as they have the same chemical properties but different atomic masses. It was not possible to predict how many elements could be discovered between two heavy elements as the rise in atomic mass is not uniform.

A sample of a compound contains 41.33 g of carbon and 8.67 g of hydrogen. The molar mass of the
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

C6H15

Explanation:

First, we calculate the empirical formula as follows:

C = 41.33 g

H = 8.67 g

We convert each mass value to mole by dividing each element by its molar mass (C = 12g/mol, H = 1g/mol)

C = 41.33g ÷ 12g/mol = 3.44mol

H = 8.67g ÷ 1g/mol = 8.67mol

Next, we divide each mole value by the smallest (3.44mol)

C = 3.44mol ÷ 3.44mol = 1

H = 8.67mol ÷ 3.44mol = 2.52

We multiply this ratio by 2 to get a simple whole number ratio

C = 1 × 2 = 2

H = 2.52 × 2 = 5.04

Based on this, the whole number ratio of C and H is 2:5, hence, the empirical formula is C2H5.

The molecular mass of the compound is given as 87.18 g/mol, hence, the molecular formula is calculated as follows:

(C2H5)n = 87.18

[12(2) + 1(5)]n = 87.18

[24 + 5]n = 87.18

(29)n = 87.18

n = 87.18 ÷ 29

n = 3.006

Approximately to whole number, n = 3

Hence, the molecular formula of the compound is [C2H5]3

= C6H15
