Answer:

True.

Explanation:

Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise one gram of a particular substance by one degree Celsius or Kelvin.

Formula for calculating specific heat is the amount of heat absorbed or released = mass x specific heat x change in temperature.

= m * Cp * delta T

Using de Broglie's equation, λ = h/mv which would have a larger wavelength, a slow-moving proton or a fast-moving golf ball? Exp
tatuchka [14]

Answer: Proton will have larger wavelength

Explanation:

\lambda =\frac{h}{mv}  (de-Broglie's equation)

\lambda =\text{wavelenght of the particle}

h= Planck constant

m= mass of the particle

v= velocity of the particle

As we can see from the de-Broglie's equation , that wavelength is inversely proportional to the product of mass into velocity of the object.

The wavelength of proton will be higher than that fast moving golf ball because mass of proton (1.67 \times 10^{-24}g) is very small than that of the golf ball (45.93 g). Proton is moving  at slow velocity and the golf ball is moving with fast velocity by which value of product of mass into velocity of proton will be lower than the value of product of mass into velocity of the golf ball which will result in larger value of wavelength of the proton.

Look at this balanced chemical reaction: N2 + 3H2 2NH3
stepladder [879]

Answer: A mass of 124457.96 g ammonia is produced by reacting a 450 L sample of nitrogen gas at a temperature of 450 K and a pressure of 300 atm.

Explanation:

Given: Volume = 450 L

Temperature = 450 K

Pressure = 300 atm

Using ideal gas equation, moles of nitrogen are calculated as follows.

PV = nRT

where,

P = pressure

V = volume

n = no. of moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm/mol K

T = tempertaure

Substitute values into the above formula as follows.

PV = nRT\\300 atm \times 450 L = n \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 450 K\\n = \frac{135000}{36.945}\\= 3654.08 mol

According to the given equation, 1 mole of nitrogen forms 2 moles of ammonia. So, moles of ammonia formed by 3654.08 moles of nitrogen is as follows.

2 \times 3654.08 mol\\= 7308.16 mol

As moles is the mass of substance divided by its molar mass. So, mass of ammonia (molar mass = 17.03 g/mol) is as follows.

Moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\7308.16 = \frac{mass}{17.03 g/mol}\\mass = 124457.96 g

Thus, we can conclude that a mass of 124457.96 g ammonia is produced by reacting a 450 L sample of nitrogen gas at a temperature of 450 K and a pressure of 300 atm.

What two pieces of information does the ATOMIC NUMBER give you?*
DiKsa [7]

Answer: Identifies the number of protons a single atom of the element contains.

Explanation: The atomic number helps people identify elements according to the number of protons one atom of the element has. It essentially defines the element. While having a neutral charge, it also provides the number of electrons the element has (in one atom).
