Answer:

The mass percent of gold in the rock is 2.500 %

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the rock = 12000 grams

Mass of gold = 300.0 grams

Step 2: Calculate mass %

Mass % = mass of gold / mass of gold

Mass % = (300.0 grams / 12000 grams) * 100 %

Mass % = 2.500 %

The mass percent of gold in the rock is 2.500 %

How much heat is needed to melt 10.0 grams of ice at -10°C until it is water at 10°C?
zhannawk [14.2K]

The heat needed to melt 10.0 grams of ice at -10°C until it is water at 10°C is 3,969.5 J. (approx= 3963J).

<h3>What is Sensible heat? </h3><h3 />

Sensible heat is defined as the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state.

Q= c×m×∆T

<h3>What is Latent heat? </h3><h3 />

Latent heat is defined as the energy required by a quantity of substance to change state.

When this change consists of changing from a solid to a liquid phase, it is called heat of fusion and when the change occurs from a liquid to a gaseous state, it is called heat of vaporization.

In this case, the heat Q that is necessary to provide for a mass m of a certain substance to change phase is equal to

Q= m×L

Where,

L is the latent heat

<h3>-10°C to 0 °C</h3><h3 />

C= specific heat capacity of ice= 2.108 J/gK

M= 10 g

ΔT= T(final)– T(initial) = 0 °C – (-10 °C)= 10 °C= 10 K

Sensitive heat Q(1) = 2.108×10×10

= 210.8J

<h3>Heat needed to melt ice</h3><h3 />

The specific heat of melting of ice is 334 J/g, the heat needed to melt 10 grams of ice is

Q(2) = 10× 334

= 3340J

<h3>0°C to 10 °C</h3><h3 />

C= specific heat capacity of liquid water is 4.187 J/gK

M= 10 g

ΔT= T(final) – T(initial) = 10 °C – 0 °C= 10 °C= 10 K because being a temperature difference, the difference is the same in °C and K.

Q(3) = 4.187×10×10

= 418.7 J.

Total heat required= Q1 + Q2 + Q3

Total heat required= 210.8 J + 3,340 J + 418.7 J

= 3969.5J

Thus, the heat needed to melt 10 gram of ice from temperature-10°C to 10°C is 3969.5. Therefore, option B is correct option.

What would be the effect on the nucleus of an atom if it emitted one alpha particle and one gamma ray
Oksana_A [137]
Unstable, radioactive atom emits alpha and gamma ray to transform into a stable atom.

Emitting an alpha particle, decreases the mass number by four and atomic number by two.
Emitting gamma ray reduces the excess energy of the radioactive atom.

How can I identify a salt compound is acidic,basic,neutral​
Luden [163]

Salts that are from strong bases and strong acids do not hydrolyze. Salts that are from strong bases and weak acids do hydrolyze, which gives it a pH greater than 7.  Salts of weak bases and strong acids do hydrolyze, which gives it a pH less than 7.

Classify the outcomes based on whether they are caused by adding or removing a reactant from a chemical reaction. The rate of th
Mama L [17]

Explanation: To study the outcomes, we will apply Le-Chatelier's principle.

Le-Chatelier's principle states that if there is any disturbance in the conditions of the dynamic equilibrium, the position of equilibrium will counteract the change.

1) The rate of the forward reaction increases.

This will happen when we add the reactant to a chemical reaction. According to Le-Chatelier's principle, by increasing the reactant, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where this effect is minimal. Hence, forward reaction is favored.

2) The rate of the revere reaction increases.

This will happen when we remove the reactant from a chemical reaction. According to Le-Chatelier's principle, by removing the reactant, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where this effect is minimal. Hence, reverse reaction is favored.

3) The concentration of product increases.

This will happen when we add reactants to a chemical reaction. According to  Le-Chatelier's principle, when we increase the concentration of reactants, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where this effect is minimal. Hence, the reaction will be in the forward direction which means that the concentration of product will increase.

4) The concentration of products decreases.

This will happen when we remove reactants from a chemical reaction. According to  Le-Chatelier's principle, when we decrease the concentration of reactants, the equilibrium will shift in the direction where this effect is minimal. Hence, the reaction will be in the reverse direction which means that the concentration of reactants will increase or concentration of products will decrease.
