I know it’s the Coulomb’s law and that I’m pretty sure the answer would be C.Inverse Square.
The answer you are looking for is B, hope this helps.
The answer is: Salt! :)
Have a great day!
Internal energy, U, is equal to the work done or by the system, plus the heat of the system:
<span>ΔU=q+w
</span>in the question they tell you the work done by the system, and the internal energy:
8185 J= -346 J + q work is negative because it was done BY the system.
substitute in: <span>q=m∗Cp∗ΔT</span> and solve for <span>Cp</span><span>.
</span>
-------------------------------------
remember that <span>ΔT=<span>Tf</span>−<span>Ti
</span></span>
so the equation, really, is: <span>q=m∗Cp∗(<span>Tf</span>−<span>Ti</span>)</span><span>
------------------------------------------
</span>
<span>185J=−346J+[m∗Cp∗(<span>Tf</span>−<span>Ti</span>)]
</span>plug in the rest of your values and solve for <span><span>Cp</span></span>
