Answer: (see explanation part)

Explanation:

A piece of solid material of specific heat c unknown is weighed with a balance, m resulting in its mass. The piece is put in almost boiling water at temperature T.

M grams of water are put on the calorimeter, it is stirred and after a short time, its temperature T0 is measured.

The solid part is quickly deposited in the calorimeter. It is stirred, and after a certain time the equilibrium temperature Te is reached.

The data is recorded and c is cleared of the formula that's attached (please take a look).

<span>My only guess is obtain a metal and heat it in a boiling water bath (of known temperature) this will be your initial temperature. Now obtain a calorimeter cup with water of known temperature as well. Place the metal into the calorimeter cup and record the temperature after 5 minutes. You now have delta T, mass of the metal, and Q. Solve for C.

Hope this helps xox :)</span>

In one on the compounds that contains only oxygen and nitrogen, 3.50 g of nitrogen combines with 2.00 g of oxygen. In another, 0
BigorU [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The law of multiple proportions states that if two elements X and Y combine together to form more than one compound, then the several masses of X which chemically combine with a fixed mass of Y is in simple ratio.T

FIRST CASE ;

  • Molar mass of Nitrogen gas = 28 g/mol
  • Number of moles of Nitrogen gas = Mass/molar mass = 3.50/28 = 0.125 moles
  • Number of moles of Oxygen gas = Mass/molar mass = 2.00/32 = 0.0625 moles
  • Hence the ratio of number of moles of N2 to O2 will be 0.1295 : 0.0625 or 2:1

  • Similarly for the SECOND CASE ;
  • Molar mass of Nitrogen gas = 28 g/mol
  • Number of moles of Nitrogen gas = Mass/molar mass = 0.875/28 = 0.03125 moles
  • Number of moles of Oxygen gas = Mass/molar mass = 1/32 = 0.03125 moles
  • Hence the ratio of number of moles of N2 to O2 will be 0.03125 : 0.03125 or 1:1

Which statement best describes what happens during a chemical change?
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Both the identity and the properties of a substance change.

Explanation:

During most chemical reactions, both the identity and the properties of substances changes. The chemical and physical properties of a substance often changes during this kind reaction.

A chemical change has the following properties:

  • A new kind of substance forms.
  • It is always accompanied by energy changes
  • Involves a change in mass of the substance
  • Considerable amount of energy is involved in this reaction.
  • The process is irreversible
