Answer:

Iron

Explanation:

Heat released by the metal sample will be equivalent to the heat absorbed by  water.

But heat = mass × specific heat capacity × temperature change

Thus;

Heat released by the metal;

= 45.9 g × c ×(95.2 -24.5) , where c is the specific heat capacity of the metal

= 3245.13c joules

Heat absorbed by water;

= 120 g × 4.18 J/g°C × (24.5-21.6)

= 1454.64 joules

Therefore;

3245.13c joules = 1454.64 joules

c = 1454.64/3245.13

  = 0.448 J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of the  metal sample is 0.448 J/g°C. The metal use is most likely, Iron.

Answer:

Qp > Kp, por lo tanto, la presión parcial de BrF₃(g) aumenta hasta alcanzar el equilibrio.

Explanation:

Paso 1: Escribir la ecuación balanceada

BrF₃ (g) ⇌ BrF(g) + F₂(g)      Kp(T) = 64,0

Paso 2: Calcular el cociente de reacción (Qp)

Qp = pBrF × pF₂ / pBrF₃

Qp = 1,50 × 2,00 / 0,0150 = 200

Paso 3: Sacar una conclusión

Dado que Qp > Kp, la reacción se desplazará hacia la izquierda para alcanzar el equilibrio, es decir, la presión parcial de BrF₃(g) aumenta hasta alcanzar el equilibrio.

Answer:

The reducing agent is Zn.

Explanation:

Let's consider the reaction between zinc and hydrochloric acid.

Zn(s) + 2 HCl(aq) ⇄ ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)

This is a redox reaction, which can be divided in 2 half-reactions: reduction and oxidation.

In the reduction, H⁺ gains electrons and it is considered the oxidizing agent.

2H⁺ + 2 e⁻ ⇒ H₂

In the oxidation, Zn loses electrons and it is considered the reducing agent.

Zn ⇒ Zn²⁺ + 2 e⁻

After completion of the citric acid cycle, most of the usable energy from the original glucose molecule is in the form of ______
GaryK [48]

After completion of the citric acid cycle, most of the usable energy from the original glucose molecule is in the form of B. ATP

The most basic kind of sugar, monosaccharides only have one kind of sugar molecule. The simplest sugar is glucose, which is also your body's primary energy source. In tests to determine blood sugar levels, sugar is measured. Fructose and galactose, two more monosaccharides, are converted into glucose via metabolism ( 1 , 2 ). For instance, ATP is necessary for both breathing and keeping your heart beating. As well as assisting in the synthesis of lipids and nerve impulses, ATP also facilitates the entry and exit of certain molecules from cells. Even some living things, including bioluminescent creatures like jellyfish and fireflies, use ATP to create light!
