Heat gained in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is expressed as follows:

Heat = mC(T2-T1)
Heat = 5(0.90)(32.1 - 22.1)
Heat = 45 J energy gained

Water's heat of fusion is 80. cal/g , its specific heat is 1.0calg⋅∘C, and its heat of vaporization is 540 cal/g . A canister is
Pani-rosa [81]
<span>294400 cal The heating of the water will have 3 phases 1. Melting of the ice, the temperature will remain constant at 0 degrees C 2. Heating of water to boiling, the temperature will rise 3. Boiling of water, temperature will remain constant at 100 degrees C So, let's see how many cal are needed for each phase. We start with 320 g of ice and 100 g of liquid, both at 0 degrees C. We can ignore the liquid and focus on the ice only. To convert from the solid to the liquid, we need to add the heat of fusion for each gram. So multiply the amount of ice we have by the heat of fusion. 80 cal/g * 320 g = 25600 cal Now we have 320 g of ice that's been melted into water and the 100 g of water we started with, resulting in 320 + 100 = 420 g of water at 0 degrees C. We need to heat that water to 100 degrees C 420 * 100 = 42000 cal Finally, we have 420 g of water at the boiling point. We now need to pump in an additional 540 cal/g to boil it all away. 420 g * 540 cal/g = 226800 cal So the total number of cal used is 25600 cal + 42000 cal + 226800 cal = 294400 cal</span>

An elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction in which an elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction
tresset_1 [31]
So I’m not 100% sure what you’re asking but I’m going to give it a go. The elimination reaction is a term used in organic chemistry that describes a type of reactions. The name kinda tells you what’s going to happen. Something is going to be removed/eliminated from initial reactant/substrate and as a result, an alkene (double bond containing compound) will form.

In elimination reactions a hydrogen atom is first removed (as a H+) from the beta carbon. As a result, the left behind electrons create a pi bond between the beta carbon and the neighboring alpha carbon. This promotes the electronegative atom, on the alpha carbon, to leaves the substrate taking both electrons from the shared sigma bond with the alpha carbon.

What does electronegativity measure
Rainbow [258]
Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract shared electrons to itself. On the periodic table, electronegativity generally increases as you move from left to right across a period and decreases as you move down a group.

Give the conjugate acid for each compound below. co3^2-
DENIUS [597]
A conjugate acid is a conjugate base with hydrogen ions attached to it. In this case, the conjugate base is the carbonate ion, CO₃⁻². This ion can have two hydrogen ions, so the conjugate acid is:

H₂CO₃

This compound is known as carbonic acid.
