A 98.0°C piece of cadmium (c=.850J/g°C) is placed in 150.0g of 37.0°C water. After sitting for a few minutes, both have a temper

ature of 38.6°C. What was the mass of the cadmium sample?

The answer is 19.9 grams cadmium. 
Assuming there was no heat leaked from the system, the heat q lost by cadmium would be equal to the heat gained by the water:
     heat lost by cadmium = heat gained by the water
     -qcadmium = qwater
Since q is equal to mcΔT, we can now calculate for the mass m of the cadmium sample:
     -qcadmium = qwater
     -(mcadmium)(0.850J/g°C)(38.6°C-98.0°C)) = 150.0g(4.18J/g°C)(38.6°C-37.0°C)
     mcadmium = 19.9 grams

During the formation of a chemical bond between two hydrogen atoms, which of the following statements is always true?
Wewaii [24]

A) Energy is released during the formation of the bond.

Explanation:

During the formation of a chemical bonds between two hydrogen atoms, energy is always released during the formation of this bond type.

Bond formation process is usually exothermic and energy is released during the formation of the bond.

  • Bond breaking process is an endothermic process in which energy is absorbed from the surrounding.
  • Whenever a bond is broken, the bond energy value is positive but when a bond is formed, the bond energy value is given a negative sign.

For a bond formation process in which hydrogen atoms are bonded covalently, energy is usually released.

How reactive is an atom of Sodium(Na) and why?
s344n2d4d5 [400]
3rd one:
it is very reactive because it does not have a full Valence shell.

this is because it's in group 1 so it has one electron in its outer shell, and it wants to have a full outer shell ( which it can gain by losing the electron in a reaction).

Hope this helps :)

For each of the bonds listed, tell which atom is more negatively charged a. C--H b. C--N c. C--S d. C--O
blondinia [14]

Explanation:

The atom is considered to be more electronegative , when it has the tendency to get a slight negative i.e. , delta negative charge on it , and the other atom gets a delta positive charge .

In the periodic table ,

As we go left to right in the periodic table , the electronegativity increases ,

and

As we go top to bottom , the electronegativity decreases .

Hence , from the option given in the question ,

a. C--H , the electronegativity of both the atom is almost the same , but looking at the treads of the periodic table , Carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen .

b. C--N ,  the electronegativity of both the atom is almost the same , but looking at the treads of the periodic table , nitrogen is more electronegative than Carbon .

c. C--S , the electronegativity of both the atom is almost the same , but looking at the treads of the periodic table , sulfur is more electronegative than Carbon .

d. C--O , the electronegativity of both the atom is almost the same , but looking at the treads of the periodic table , oxygen is more electronegative than Carbon .

Through what process do all stars produce their energy?
Deffense [45]

nuclear fusion

Stars produce their energy through nuclear fusion. For most stars, this process is dominated by a process called the "proton-proton chain," a sequence of events that transforms four hydrogen atoms into one helium atom.
