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.

Deprenyl is an enzyme inhibitor that helps prevent the metabolism of dopamine in the brain. The chemical formula of Deprenyl is
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

0.007 g of deprenyl dose is required fro the patient with body mass of 70 kilograms.

Explanation:

The dose for treating Parkinson’s disease = 100 μg/kg body weight

Mass of patient's body = 70 kg

Amount of dose of deprenyl required = 100 μg/kg × 70 kg = 7,000 μg

1 μg = 0.00001 g

7,000 μg = 7,000 × 0.000001 g = 0.007 g

0.007 g of deprenyl dose is required fro the patient with body mass of 70 kilograms.

1st one= CaO +H2O=Ca(OH)2
product side-
Ca=1
O=2
H=2
Reactant side-
Ca=1
O=2
H=2
The first one is balanced for you 
There is 1 calcium on each side 2 oxygens on each side and 2 hydrogens on each side

The measurable properties of a substance, such as vapor pressure and surface tension, occur due to the strength of
SpyIntel [72]

Properties of a substance such as vapor pressure and surface tension depend on electrical forces between particles, as given by Coulomb's law.

The vapor pressure refers to how easily a liquid converts to gas while surface tension is the force that makes a liquid surface act as a stretched elastic skin.

Both vapor pressure and surface tension has a lot to do with the degree of polarity in a molecule. Usually, polar molecules have a low vapor pressure and high surface tension due to a high electrical forces between particles, as given by Coulomb's law.
