How can you determine the specific heat of a metal using a calorimeter

Chemistry

Answer:

One can determine the specific heat of the metal through using the clarimeter, water, thermometer and using heat equations.

Explanation:

You can learn about heat effects and calorimetery through a simple experiment by boiling water and heating up the metal in it. Then, pour it into your calorimeter and the heat will flow from the metal to the water. The two equlibria will meet: the metal will loose heat into its surroundings (the water) and teh water will absorb the heat. The heat flow for the water is the same as it is for the metal, the only difference being is the negative sign indicating the loss of the heat of the metal.

In terms of theromdynamics, we can deteremine the heat flow for the metal becasue it would be equal to the mangnitued but opposite in direction. Thus, we can say that the specific heat of water qH2O = -qmetal.

What is the name for this type of reproduction?​
mario62 [17]

Answer:

----------------------------------------------

Reproduction is defined as the production of individuals of the same species, that is the next generation of the species.

----------------------------------------------

There are basically two types of reproduction - asexual and sexual.

----------------------------------------------

Asexual reproduction involves only one parent and the offspring is

genetically similar to the parent ...

----------------------------------------------

The different types of asexual reproduction are fission, budding, fragmentation, spore formation and vegetative propagation.

----------------------------------------------

Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that involves a complex life cycle in which a gamete (such as a sperm or egg cell) with a single set of chromosomes combines with another to produce a organism composed of cells with two sets of chromosomes .

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction which does not involve the fusion of gametes or change in the number of chromosomes. The offspring that arise by asexual reproduction from a single cell or from a multicellular organism inherit the genes of that parent.
