<span>I use several different organic compounds at home. An example of a ketone would be acetone, which I use as nail polish remover. An example of an ester would be octyl acetate, which lends an orange fragrance to my perfume. An example of an alcohol would be isopropyl alcohol, commonly known as "rubbing alcohol", which I use to clean around my home.</span>

4. Solve the following heat flow problem, being sure to show all your work (you may either type your
Viktor [21]

Answer:

0.70 J/g.°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Mass of graphite (m): 402 g
  • Heat absorbed (Q): 1136 J
  • Initial temperature: 26°C
  • Final temperature: 30 °C
  • Specific heat of graphite (c): ?

Step 2: Calculate the specific heat of graphite

We will use the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

c = Q / m × ΔT

c = 1136 J / 402 g × (30°C - 26°C)

c = 0.70 J/g.°C

1) A toy car with a mass of 2.35 kg is pushed with a force of 21.6 N. What is the acceleration of the car?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The acceleration of the car is 9,19 m/s2

Explanation:

We use the formula: F=m x a---> a=F/m

a=21,6N/ 2,35kg       1N is 1kgxm/s2

a=21,6 kg x m/s2 x 2,35 kg

a=9,191489362  m/s2

Phosphorus atomic radius is smaller than magnesium atomic radius <br> True or false
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Atomic radius can be defined as a measure of the size (distance) of the atom of a chemical element such as hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, nitrogen etc, typically from the nucleus to the valence electrons. The atomic radius of a chemical element decreases across the periodic table, typically from alkali metals (group one elements such as hydrogen, lithium and sodium) to noble gases (group eight elements such as argon, helium and neon). Also, the atomic radius of a chemical element increases down each group of the periodic table, typically from top to bottom (column).

<em>Hence, the atomic radius of phosphorus is smaller than the atomic radius of magnesium. Basically, the atomic radius of phosphorus is 98 pm while the atomic radius of magnesium is 145 pm.</em>
