1 answer:
Answer:
Explanation:
25.3% Mg
74.7% Cl
First step: change % to g
25.3g Mg
74.7g Cl
Second step: calculate g/mol of each compound. You can do this by using the atomic mass.
Third step: determine the lowest number and divide everything by it. Of the result, extract whole number only.
Fourth step: Write each compound with their respective number below.
This empirical formula should be:

Answer:
b)15.0°C
Explanation:
Specific Heat of Water=4.2 J/g°C
This means, that 1 g of Water will take 4.2 J of energy to increase its temperature by 1°C.
∴80 g Water will take 80×4.2 J of energy to increase its temperature by 1°C.
80×4.2 J=336 J
Total Energy Provided=1680 J
The temperature increase=\frac{\textrm{Total energy required}}{\textrm{energy required to increase temperature by one degree}}
Temperature increase=
=5°C
Initial Temperature =10°C
Final Temperature=Initial + Increase in Temperature
=10+5=15°C
