Answer:

                     Cp  =  0.237 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹

Explanation:

                      Amount of energy required by known amount of a substance to raise its temperature by one degree is called specific heat capacity.

The equation used for this problem is as follow,

                                                 Q  =  m Cp ΔT   ----- (1)

Where;

           Q  =  Heat  =  640 J

           m  =  mass  =  125 g

           Cp  =  Specific Heat Capacity  =  <u>??</u>

           ΔT  =  Change in Temperature  =  43.6 °C  -  22 °C  =  21.6 °C

Solving eq. 1 for Cp,

                                Cp  =  Q / m ΔT

Putting values,

                                Cp  =  640 J / (125 g × 21.6 °C)

                                Cp  =  0.237 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹

Consider an atom having four distinct energy levels. If an electron is able to make transitions between any two levels, how many
Kryger [21]

Energy levels are the electron shells where electrons are found at a fixed distance from the nucleus of the atom. The atom could emit 6 different wavelengths.

<h3>What is wavelength?</h3>

A wavelength is a distance between the adjacent crests in wave signals propagated in a system. Wavelength (\rm \lambda ) is in inverse relation to the frequency of the wave.

When an electron jumps from energy level 1 to 2, 1 to 3, and 1 to 4 one wavelength each is present. Hence, making the total wavelength to be 3, in transition from the first energy level.

Similarly, from energy levels, 2 to 3 and 2 to 4, a total of 2 wavelengths, and from energy levels 3 to 4 one wavelength is produced.

So the total different wavelengths of the radiation that can be emitted will be 3 + 2 + 1 = 6.

Therefore, 6 different wavelengths of radiation will be emitted by the atom.

How many moles are in 18.2 g of CO2?<br> 41.4 moles<br> 801 moles<br> 0.414 moles<br> 0 2.42 moles
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

0.414 mole (3 sig. figs.)

Explanation:

Given grams, moles = mass/formula weight

moles in 18.2g CO₂(g) = 18.2g/44g/mole = 0.413636364 mole (calc. ans.)

≅ 0.414 mole (3 sig. figs.)

4. How many milligrams are in 5.25 x 10-13 kg?<br><br> the “-13” is an exponent
rusak2 [61]

5. 25 x 10⁻⁷mg

Explanation:

This is mass conversion from mg to kg;

The kg is a quantity of mass used to measure the amount of matter in a substance.

   Given mass = 5.25 x 10⁻¹³kg

The kilo-  is a prefix that denotes 10³

  therefore;

         1000g = 1kilogram

 the milli-  is a prefix that denotes 10⁻⁻³

       1000mg = 1g

Now that we know this, we can convert:

   5.25 x 10⁻¹³kg  x \frac{1000g}{1kg}  x \frac{1000mg}{1g}   =  5. 25 x 10⁻¹³ x 10⁶mg

      =  5. 25 x 10⁻⁷mg

Reacting Solutions of Aluminum Chloride with Potassium Hydroxide
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

1Al2(SO4)3 + 3ZnCl2 → 2AlCl3 + 3ZnSO4

The coefficients represents moles. There is 1 mole of Aluminum Sulfate, 3 moles of Zinc(II) Chloride, 2 moles of Aluminum Chloride, and 3 moles of Zinc(II) Sulfate.

Now add all the coefficients/moles.

9 is the sum of all the coefficients.
