Show the calculation of the final temperature for a 20.8 gram piece of iron heated to 100oC which has been added to a 55.3 gram

sample of water at 25.3oC in a coffee cup calorimeter.
c (water) = 4.184 J/g oC; c (Fe) = 0.449 J/g oC

Answer:

Final Temperature = 28.2 oC

Explanation:

Information given;

Mass of Iron = 20.8g

Initial Temperature of Iron = 100C

Mass of water = 55.3g

Initial temperature of water = 25.3 C

The presence of a coffee cup calorimeter hints that there is no heat loss to the surrounding and that the iron and water are at thermal equilibrium.

Thermal equilibrium means that there is no heat transfer going on between the bodies, which simply means that the bodies are at the same temperature.

Hence, both bodies would the same final temperature (T2)

H = M * C * ΔT (For iron)

H = 20.8 * 0.449 * ( 100 - T2)

H = 9.3392 ( 100 - T2)

H = 933.92 - 9.3392T2

H = M * C * ΔT (For water)

H = 55.3 * 4.184 * (T2 - 25.3)

H = 231.3752 (T2 - 25.3)

H = 231.3752T2 - 5853.79

Since they are in thermal equilibrium it means H (Iron) = H (water).

This leads to;

933.92 - 9.3392T2 = 231.3752T2 - 5853.79

231.3752T2 +  9.3392T2  = 5853.79 + 933.92

240.7144 T2 = 6787.71

T2 = 28.2 oC

Which best describes the importance of the microscope to the development of cell theory? Microscopes color different parts of ce
aliya0001 [1]
Cells are too small to see with the naked eye. 

It's pretty straight forward, use the cross-out method. 

1) Microscopes MAGNIFY images, they don't color the cells. In fact, scientists have to use these chemicals to "stain" or color the cells to see them more easily through microscopes. 

2) If the lenses of a microscope reduced the image of an organism to the size of a cell, you'd be seeing a very tiny human through your microscope, instead of actual cells. 

3) Microscopes don't "trap" anything. In fact, scientists use plates or slides under microscopes to contain what they're studying.

A plate moves 200 m in 10,000 years. What is its rate in cm/year?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>2 cm/year</h2>

Explanation:

To find the rate in cm/year we must first convert 200 m into cm

1 m = 100 cm

if 1 m = 100 cm

Then 200 m = 200 × 100 = 20 ,000 cm

So the rate is

<h2>\frac{20000}{10000}</h2>

<u>Reduce the fraction with 10,000</u>

We have the final answer as

<h3>2 cm/year</h3>

Hope this helps you

What two types of elements are ionic compounds made of?
mash [69]

Answer:

ionic compounds are made from metal and non mental elements

Explanation:

in this case it is know as an ionic compound because it contains a charge. For example, NaCl is simply a compound as it contains no charges (the charges cancel out as Cl is -1 and Na is +1)

but OH- is an ionic compound as it has a charge if -1 (O has a -2 charge and H has a +1 charge, so -2+1=-1 so OH has -1 charge)
