<u>Answer:</u> The smallest temperature change is shown by water.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the heat absorbed or released, we use the equation:

q=mC\times \Delta T      ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed = 200.0 J

m = mass of the substance

C = specific heat of substance

\Delta T = change in temperature

As, the same amount of heat is getting absorbed in all the cases. So, the change in temperature will depend on the product of mass and specific heat.

For the given options:

  • <u>Option a:</u>  50.0 g Fe, C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC

We are given:

m=50.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

200.0J=50.0g\times 0.449J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 0.449}=8.99^oC

Change in temperature = 8.99°C

  • <u>Option b:</u>  50.0 g water, C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC

We are given:

m=50.0g\\C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

200.0J=50.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 4.18}=0.96^oC

Change in temperature = 0.96°C

  • <u>Option b:</u>  25.0 g Pb, C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC

We are given:

m=50.0g\\C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

200.0J=25.0g\times 0.128J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.128}=62.5^oC

Change in temperature = 62.5°C

  • <u>Option d:</u>  25.0 g Ag, C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC

We are given:

m=25.0g\\C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

200.0J=25.0g\times 0.235J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.235}=34.04^oC

Change in temperature = 34.04°C

  • <u>Option e:</u>  25.0 g granite, C_{granite}=0.79J/g^oC

We are given:

m=25.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.79J/g^oC

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

200.0J=25.0g\times 0.79J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.79}=10.13^oC

Change in temperature = 10.13°C

Hence, the smallest temperature change is shown by water.

What are atoms?
user100 [1]

Answer:

The smallest particle of a chemical element can be defined as an atom.

Explanation:

The number of protons in one atom of an element determines the atom's identity, and the number of electrons determines its electrical charge.

a single electron or one of two or more electrons in the outer shell of an atom that is responsible for the chemical properties of the atom is known as valence electrons.

An atom's reactivity is its tendency to lose or gain electrons. ... This is because they have one outer electron and losing it gives them the stability of a outer electron shell as the next level... The reactivities of elements can be predicted by periodic trends.

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.  

Usually radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.  

General formulas used in decay:  

\large{\boxed{\bold{N_t=N_0(\dfrac{1}{2})^{t/t\frac{1}{2} }}}

T = duration of decay  

t 1/2 = half-life  

N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms  

Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time  

Nt=25 g

No=100 g

t1/2=5770 years

\tt 25=100\dfrac{1}{2}^{T/5770}\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{1}{2}^{T/5770}\\\\2=T/5770\rightarrowT=11540~years

Consider the following ionization reaction.
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

According to Bronsted-Lowry, an acid is a proton donor while a base is a proton acceptor.

Hence, if we consider the reaction above, we will notice that for each base there is a conjugate acid and for each acid there is a conjugate base.

For the acid HNO3, its conjugate base is NO3^- while for the acid H3O^+, its conjugate base is H2O.
