You are correct, but you needn't worry about the signs so much. Just remember that the negative sign is used to denote a loss of energy; since the water is hotter, it will be losing energy (-Q) and the iron will gain energy (Q). Now, we substitute the values:
-149.3 * 4.184 * (T - 95) = 412 * 0.44 * (T - 5)
Solving this equation for T,
T = 74.8 °C
Answer:
In physics and chemistry, ionization energy or ionisation energy is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron of an isolated neutral gaseous atom or molecule.
Explanation:
Any substance that accept a proton by definition is considered to be BRONSTED LOWRY BASE.
Bronsted Lowry defined acid and base on the basis of donating or accepting protons. In the Bronsted Lowry classification of acid and base, an acid is defined as a substance which donate proton while a base is defined as a substance which accept proton.
