Answer:

297 J

Explanation:

The key to this problem lies with aluminium's specific heat, which as you know tells you how much heat is needed in order to increase the temperature of

1 g

of a given substance by

1

∘

C

.

In your case, aluminium is said to have a specific heat of

0.90

J

g

∘

C

.

So, what does that tell you?

In order to increase the temperature of

1 g

of aluminium by

1

∘

C

, you need to provide it with

0.90 J

of heat.

But remember, this is how much you need to provide for every gram of aluminium in order to increase its temperature by

1

∘

C

. So if you wanted to increase the temperature of

10.0 g

of aluminium by

1

∘

C

, you'd have to provide it with

1 gram

However, you don't want to increase the temperature of the sample by

This means that you're going to have to use that much heat for every degree Celsius you want the temperature to change. You can thus say that

Therefore, the total amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of

I'll leave the answer rounded to three sig figs, despite the fact that your values only justify two sig figs.

For future reference, this equation will come in handy

q

- the amount of heat added / removed

m

c

- the specific heat of the substance

Δ

T

- the change in temperature, defined as the difference between the final temperature and the initial temperature of the sample

Imagine you are handed a mineral sample. It breaks with a conchoidal fracture, but displays no cleavage. It does not react with
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Quartz.

Explanation:

According to the characteristics given in the question the mineral must surely be Quartz.

Quartz does not react with hydrochloric acid.

Its is pink in color and has anon metallic luster. It has a specific gravity of 2.65. Quartz is continuous framework of SiO4 , with each oxygen being shared with two tetrahedra, giving an overall chemical formula of SiO2.
