Answer:

449730.879 cal/g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sample = 4.9 g

Change in temperature  = 2.08 °C  (275.23 k)

Heat capacity of calorimeter = 33.50 KJ . K⁻¹

Solution:

C(candy) = Q/m

Q = C (calorimeter) × ΔT

C(candy) = C (calorimeter) × ΔT / m

C(candy) =  33.50 KJ . K⁻¹ × 275.23 K / 4.90 g

C(candy) = 9220.205 KJ / 4.90 g

C(candy) =  1881.674 KJ / g

It is known that,

1 KJ /g = 239.006 cal/g

1881.674 × 239.006 = 449730.879 cal/g

Coordination number has to do with the number of ligands that is attched to the central metal atom/ion.

<h3>What is coordination number?</h3>

The term coordination number has to do with the number of ligands that is attched to the central metal atom/ion. The coordination sphere contains this central metal along with associated ligands.

The question is incomplete. However, if I have something like, K3[Cr(H2O)6], the coordination number of the complex is six.
