Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of silver cube = 2.42³ = 14.17 cm³

mass of silver cube = volume x density

= 14.17 x 10.49 = 148.64 gm

Volume of gold cube = 2.75³ = 20.8  cm³

mass of gold cube =  20.8 x 19.3 = 401.44 gm

specific heat of silver and gold are .24 and .129 J /g°C

mass of 112 mL water = 112 g

Heat absorbed = heat lost = mass x specific heat x temperature fall or rise

Heat lost by metals

= 148.64 x .24 x ( 85.4 -T) + 401.44 x .129 x ( 85.4 - T )

= (35.67 + 51.78 ) x ( 85.4 - T )

87.45 x ( 85.4 - T )

= 7468.23 - 87.45 T

Heat gained by water

= 112 x 1 x ( T - 20.5 )

= 112 T - 2296

Heat lost = heat gained

7468.23 - 87.45 T = 112 T - 2296

199.45 T = 9764.23

T = 48.95° C

Hard water often contains dissolved Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions. One way to soften water is to add phosphates. The phosphate ion forms in
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

22.4269 grams of sodium phosphate must be added to 1.4 L of this solution to completely eliminate the hard water ions

Explanation:

We will first write the balanced equation for this scenario

3 CaCl2 + 2 Na3PO4 ----> 6 NaCl + Ca3 (PO4)2

3 Mg(NO3)2 + 2 Na3PO4 -----> 6 NaNO3 + Mg3 (PO4)2

The ratio here for both calcium chloride and magnesium nitrate is 3:2

The number of moles of each compound is equal to

0.054 * 1.4 = 0.0756\\0.093* 1.4 = 0.1302

Using the mole ratio of 3:2, convert each to moles of sodium phosphate.

0.0756 mole of CaCl2 is equal to 0.05\\ Na3PO4

0.1302 mole of CaCl2 is equal to 0.0868 Na3PO4

Converting moles of sodium phosphate to grams of sodium phosphate we get

(0.05 +0.0868) * 163.94 g/mol

22.4269 grams of sodium phosphate must be added to 1.4 L of this solution to completely eliminate the hard water ions

How do the chemical characteristics of carbon affect the characteristics of organic molecules?
Tom [10]

Answer:

The chemical characteristics of carbon affect the characteristics of organic molecules due to its tetravalent nature. It has four valence electrons in which it shares with other elements in order to form an octet configuration.

Carbon atoms are also capable of forming double and triple bonds with other atoms. These properties help determine the functional group present and gives us a knowledge of the chemical features such as polarity, melting and boiling present in the compound.

according to the third law if a football player hits another player with an action force of 1500n how much will the reaction for
djyliett [7]

Answer:

The reaction would be 1500n (equal reaction)

Explanation:

This can be explained by Newton's third law of motion which states that for every action (force), there is an opposite and equal reaction. In other words, when two objects or people come in contact, the magnitude of force which they exert on each other is equal and they both feel an equal reaction force.

It doesn't matter whether one of the colliding bodies is of bigger mass than the other.  This Newton's third law of motion is also known as the law of action and reaction.
