Compared to sulphuric acid, carboxylic acids are much weaker, this is because of their overall characteristic with respect to pKa, they do not dissociate completely as to all be in their conjugate base form but will have equal amounts in both.

Sulfuric acid is a strong polyprotic acid, and has a pKa value that is even smaller than the carboxylic acid.

A piece of unknown metal with mass 68.6 g is heated to an initial temperature of 100 °C and dropped into 8.4 g of water
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The metal has a specific heat of 0.34333 J / g °C

Explanation:

The amount of heat lost by the metal is equal to the amount heat won by the water

q(lost, metal) = q(gained, water)

<u>Step 1: Given data</u>

q = m*ΔT *Cp

⇒with m = mass of the substance

⇒with ΔT = change in temp = final temperature T2 - initial temperature T1

⇒with Cp = specific heat (Cpwater = 4.184J/g °C) (Cpmetam = TO BE DETERMINED)

mass of the metal = 68.6g

mass of the water = 8.4g

initial temperature metal = 100°C

final temperature metal = 52.1°C

initial temperature water = 20°C

final temperature water = 52.1 °C

Specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g °C

<u>Step 2</u>:

For this situation : we get for q = m*ΔT *Cp

q(lost, metal) = q(gained, water)

- mass of metal(ΔT)(Cpmetal) = mass of water (ΔT) (Cpwater)

-68.6 * (52.1 - 100) * Cpmetal = 8.4g * (52.1 - 20) * 4.184 J /g °C

-68.6 * (-47.9) * Cpmetal = 1128.17

Cpmetal = 1128.17 / (-68.6 *-47.9) = 0.34333 J / g °C

The metal has a specific heat of 0.34333 J / g °C

Why is copper a popular mineral? Is it in danger of depletion? Use details to support your answer.
laila [671]

Answer:

yes it is a danger.Copper doesn't break down in the environment, leading to its accumulation in plants and animals. Absorption of some copper into the body is essential for human health. Acute industrial exposure to copper fumes, dusts or mists can result in chronic copper poisoning.Copper is a mineral and an element essential to our everyday lives. It is a major industrial metal because of its high ductility, malleability, thermal and electrical conductivity and resistance to corrosion. It is an essential nutrient in our daily diet.

What is the mass of a bar of aluminum with length 5.3cm, width 0.32 cm and height 2.34cm? The density of aluminum is 2.70g/cm3.
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

<h2>mass = 10.72 g</h2>

Explanation:

Density of a substance can be found by using the formula

Density =  \frac{mass}{volume}

Making mass the subject we have

mass = Density \times volume

From the question

Density = 2.70 g/cm³

We assume that the aluminum is a cuboid

and volume of a cuboid is given by

Volume = length × width × height

length = 5.3 cm

width = 0.32 cm

height = 2.34 cm

Volume = 5.3 × 0.32 × 2.34 = 3.97 cm³

Substitute the values into the above and solve for the mass

We have

mass = 2.70 × 3.97

We have the final answer as

<h3>mass = 10.72 g</h3>

Hope this helps you
