Answer:
Aluminium was named after alum, which is called 'alumen' in Latin. This name was given by Humphry Davy, an English chemist, who, in 1808, discovered that aluminium could be produced by electrolytic reduction from alumina (aluminium oxide), but did not manage to prove the theory in practice.
Explanation:
Pure substances are substances which are homogenous in nature. They either consists of atoms of 1 kind or molecules of 1 kind. Atoms are seen in elements, where as molecules are seen in compounds like Acids, Bases, etc.
They mostly have fixed properties like boiling and melting points and are uniform in nature. :D
Answer:
Q = 10.8 KJ
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of Al= 100g
Initial temperature = 30°C
Final temperature = 150°C
Heat required = ?
Solution:
Specific heat of Al = 0.90 j/g.°C
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
ΔT = 150°C - 30°C
ΔT = 120°C
Q = 100g×0.90 J/g.°C× 120°C
Q = 10800 J (10800j×1KJ/1000 j)
Q = 10.8 KJ
