Specific heat is the amount of energy needed to increase the temperature per unit mass in 1°C.

The nature of the elements or compounds (metalic elements in this case) determines the transference of heat inside the body of the object. The mechanism of heat transfer inside the metals is conductivty. The more compact and denser the metal, the closer the atoms and the faster the transference of heat by conductivity and the lower the specific heat.

Then,  the reason why specific heat of Al is much lower than gold, is that gold is much denser than Al.

Answer:

84672 J

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) = 72 m

Combined mass (m) = 120 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Energy (E) =?

We can obtain the energy by using the following formula:

E = mgh

Where

E => is the energy.

g => is the acceleration due to gravity

m => is the mass.

h => is the height.

E = 120 × 9.8 × 72

E = 84672 J

Thus, the energy is 84672 J

When filtered through a funnel into a flask, a mixture of substances X, Y and Z gets separated as below: - X stays in the funnel
alisha [4.7K]

Z is the solvent, Y is soluble in water while X is insoluble in water.

<h3>Filtration</h3>

Filtration is a method of separation of substances based on particle size. Only a particular particle size can pass through the filter. The substance that remains in the filter is the residue while the substances that passes through the filter is called the filtrate.

From the observation in the question Z is the solvent, Y is soluble in water while X is insoluble in water.

How many electrons in an atom can have each of the following quantum number or sublevel designations?
storchak [24]

10 electrons in an atom can have each of the 3d quantum number or sublevel designations.

<h3>What are four quantum numbers?</h3>

Quantum numbers are used to characterize the values of conserved quantities in a quantum system's dynamics in both quantum physics and chemistry.

1) The "n" sign refers to the principal quantum number. It shows how many shells there are.

2) The "l" sign indicates the azimuthal quantum number. It gives the form of the orbitals and their angular momentum. 0 to n-1 make up its range.

3) "m_{l}" stands for the magnetic quantum number. It serves as a cue for spatial orientation. The range of it is -l to +l.

4) Spin quantum number, represented by the symbol "m_{s}". It shows how the electron is spinning.

Calculate the enthalpy change, ΔH, for the process in which 30.1 g of water is converted from liquid at 10.1 ∘C to vapor at 25.0
gayaneshka [121]
You can split the process in two parts:

1) heating the liquid water from 10.1 °C to 25.0 °C , and

2) vaporization of liquid water at constant temperature of 25.0 °C.


For the first part, you use the formula ΔH = m*Cs*ΔT

ΔH = 30.1g * 4.18 j/(g°C)*(25.0°C - 10.1°C) = 1,874 J

For the second part, you use the formula ΔH = n*ΔHvap

Where n is the number of moles, which is calculated using the mass and the molar mass of the water:

n = mass / [molar mass] = 30.1 g / 18.0 g/mol = 1.67 mol

=> ΔH = 1.67 mol * 44,000 J / mol = 73,480 J

3) The enthalpy change of the process is the sum of both changes:

ΔH total =  1,874 J + 73,480 J = 75,354 J

Answer: 75,354 J
