Table C: Known Specific Heat Values for Common Materials

Chemistry
1 answer:
a_sh-v [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Water is the best insulator.

Explanation:

Specific Heat Capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of a substance by 1 K.

<em>A good insulator has a high specific heat capacity.</em>

This means that it absorbs more heat for raising its temperature by 1 K.

This is a property of a good insulator.

Among the given materials, water has the highest specific heat capacity.

Hence, water is the best insulator.

What is the oxidation number of sulfur in H2SO3?<br> a. +3<br> b. +1<br> c. +2<br> d. +4
Alla [95]
We need to keep in mind that the compound is neutral.

H2SO3
2(+1)+S+3(-2)=0 (since its neutral)
2+S-6=0
S-4=0
S=4

Therefore the oxidation number for sulfur is +4.

Why is it commonly believed that carbon dioxide is responsible for global warming? Select 2 options.
monitta

Answer:

Carbon dioxide levels in the Earth's atmosphere have been steadily increasing.

Carbon has a longer average lifetime in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Today the level of carbon dioxide is higher than at any time in human history. Scientists widely agree that Earth’s average surface temperature has already increased by about 2 F (1 C) since the 1880s, and that human-caused increases in carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases are extremely likely to be responsible.

The lifetime in the air of CO2, the most significant man-made greenhouse gas, is probably the most difficult to determine, because there are several processes that remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Between 65% and 80% of CO2 released into the air dissolves into the ocean over a period of 20–200 years.

Carry out the following operations as if they were calculations of experimental results and express each answer in standard nota
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

1. 10.6\; \rm m (one decimal place.)

2.0.79\; \rm g (two decimal places.)

3. 16.5\;\rm cm^2 (three significant figures.)

Explanation:

<h3>1.</h3>

The first and second expressions are additions and subtractions. When adding two numbers, the accuracy of the result is given by the number of decimal places in it. The result should have as many decimal places as the input with the least number of decimal places.

For example, in the first expression:

  • 5.6792\;\rm m has four decimal places.
  • 0.6\; \rm m has only one decimal place.
  • 4.33\; \rm m has two decimal places.

Therefore, the result should be rounded to one decimal place. Note that these units are compatible for addition, since they are all the same. The result should have the same unit (that is: \rm m.)

Therefore:

\rm 5.6792\; m + 0.6\; m + 4.33\; m \approx 10.6\; \rm m. (Rounded to one decimal place.)

<h3>2.</h3>

Similarly:

  • \rm 3.70\; \rm g has two decimal places.
  • 2.9133\; \rm g has four decimal places.

Therefore, the result should be rounded to two decimal places. Its unit should be \rm g (same as the unit of the two inputs.)

\rm 3.70\; g - 2.9133\; g \approx 0.79\; \rm g. (Rounded to two decimal places.)

<h3>3.</h3>

When multiplying two numbers, the accuracy of the result should be based on the number of significant figures in it. The result should have as many significant figures as the input with the least number of significant figures. In this expression:

  • 4.51\; \rm cm has three significant figures.
  • 3.6666\; \rm cm has five significant figures.

Therefore, the result should have only three significant figures.

The unit of the result is supposed to be the product of the units of the input. In this expression, that unit will be \rm cm \cdot cm, which is occasionally written as \rm cm^2.

\rm 4.51 \; cm \times 3.6666 \; cm \approx 16.5\; \rm cm^2. (Rounded to three significant figures.)

The density of water is 1.00 gram/milliliter. What is the volume in milliliters of 1.00 mole of water? Express your answer to th
Kay [80]

Answer: 18.0152 milliliters

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Water volume = water mass / water density

Since 1 mol of water weights 18.0152 grams

Replacing with the values and solving:

Water volume = 18.0152 g / 1 g /ml = 18.0152 milliliters

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
