A 51.9g sample of iron, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.449·J·g?1°C?1, is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) t

hat contains 300.0g of water. The temperature of the water starts off at 19.0°C. When the temperature of the water stops changing it's 20.3°C. The pressure remains constant at 1atm. Calculate the initial temperature of the iron sample. Be sure your answer is rounded to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

the initial temperature of the iron sample is Ti = 90,36 °C

Explanation:

Assuming the calorimeter has no heat loss to the surroundings:

Q w + Q iron = 0

Also when the T stops changing means an equilibrium has been reached and therefore, in that moment, the temperature of the water is the same that the iron ( final temperature of water= final temperature of iron = T )  

Assuming Q= m*c*( T- Tir)  

mc*cc*(T-Tc)+mir*cir*(T - Tir) = 0

 Tir = 20.3 °C + 300 g * 4.186 J/g°C * (20.3 C - 19 °C) / ( 51.9 g * 0.449 J/g°C )

 Tir = 90.36 °C

Note :

- The specific heat capacity of water is assumed 1 cal/g°C = 4.186 J/g°C  

- We assume no reaction between iron and water

As you have seen in this lab, the density of water is near 1 g/cm3. Anything with a density lower than this will float in water,
hammer [34]
The third answer is the one you want. You have to have an adjustable density. All other things being equal, if the tanks you use for holding just water when filled with water will let the sub sink, because the sub is made of a dense metal like iron or steel.

If on the other hand you fill these tanks with air, the net density will be below one and the sub will rise.

_____ energy depends on the motion or position of an object.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer: Mechanical energy depends on the motion or position of an object.

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. Mechanical energy can be either kinetic energy (energy of motion) or potential energy (stored energy of position).

Calculate the number of moles in 24.18 liters of neon gas at STP.
uranmaximum [27]

The number of moles of Neon gas : 1.079

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

24.18 Liters of Neon gas at STP

Required

The number of moles

Solution

There are 2 conditions that are usually used as a reference in chemical calculations (mainly for determining the volume per mole of a gas or the molar volume), STP and RTP

Conditions at T 0 ° C and P 1 atm are stated by STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure). At STP, Vm is 22.4 liters / mol.

So mol for 24.18 L :

= 24.18 : 22.4

= 1.079 moles
