Answer:

-12162.47 joules (or -12000 joules when accounting for significant figures)

Explanation (btw I used 1 cal as 4.184 joules because SI units are better):

q = m c delta T

q = (70.9) (4.184) (25 - 66)

q = (70.9) (4.184) (-41)

q = -12162.47 joules

Fill in the blanks with appropriate options given in below:

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

1) -COOH

2) -NH2

3) hydrogen bonds

4) dispersion forces

5) -CH3

6) hydrogen bonds

7) negative

8) negative

9) positive

Explanation:

Alanine has a -COOH and a -NH2 group available to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.

Although there are some potential dispersion forces between the terminal -CH3 group of alanine and hexane molecules, we expect the hydrogen bonds between alanine and water to be stronger.

Stronger intermolecular attractive forces between alanine and water lead to a more negative ΔHmix and more negative (smaller positive) ΔHsoln for water than for hexane.

What is the capillary rise of ethanol in a glass tube with a 0.1 mm radius if the surface tension of ethanol is 0.032Jm2 and the

sweet [91]

Answer: The capillary rise(h) in the glass tube is = 0.009m

Explanation:

Using the equation

h = 2Tcosθ/rpg

Given

Contact angle, θ = Zero

h = height of the glass tube=?

T = surface tension = $0.032J/m^2$
