According to law of definite proportion, for a compound, elements always combine in fixed ratio by mass.

The formula of compound remains the same, let it be a_{x}b_{y} where, a and b are two different elements.

Since, the ratio of mass remains the same , calculate the ratio of masses of element a and b in both cases

\frac{a}{b}=\frac{15}{35}=\frac{10}{y}

rearranging,

y=\frac{10\times 35}{15}=23.3

Thus, mass of b produced will be 23.3 g.

\The specific heat of aluminum is 0.21 cal g°C . How much heat is released when a 10 gram piece of aluminum foil is taken out of
atroni [7]

<u>Answer: </u>The amount of heat released is 84 calories.

<u>Explanation: </u>

The equation used to calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed, we use the equation:

Q= m\times c\times \Delta T

where,

Q = heat gained  or released = ? Cal

m = mass of the substance = 10g

c = specific heat of aluminium = 0.21 Cal/g ° C

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta T={\text{Change in temperature}}=(10-50)^oC=-40^oC  

Q=10g\times 0.21Cal/g^oC\times-40^oC

Q = -84 Calories

Hence, the amount of heat released is 84 calories.
