Can atoms be created or destroyed during a chemical reaction?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

During chemical reaction, atomes cannot be created or destroyed, they can only react together to form <em>E</em><em>l</em><em>e</em><em>m</em><em>e</em><em>n</em><em>t</em><em> </em>or <em>C</em><em>o</em><em>m</em><em>p</em><em>o</em><em>u</em><em>n</em><em>d</em><em> </em>at the <em>P</em><em>r</em><em>o</em><em>d</em><em>u</em><em>c</em><em>t</em><em> </em>side.

How many joules of heat are absorbed to raise the temperature of 435 grams of water at 1 atm from 25°C to its boiling point, 100
zepelin [54]
The energy absorbed may be calculated using:
Q = mcΔT
Where Q is the energy absorbed, m is the mass of water, c is the specific heat capacity of the water and ΔT is the change is the temperature of the water. Substituting the values,
Q = (435)(4.18)(100-25)
Q = 136,372 J

The energy absorbed is 136.4 kJ

What mass of water could be warmed from 21.4 degrees celsius to 43.4 degrees celsius by the pellet dropped inside it? Heat capac
Artist 52 [7]

42.34 g of water could be warmed from 21.4°C to 43.4°C  by the pellet dropped inside it

Heat loss by the pellet is equal to the Heat gained by the water.

q_{w} = -q_{p} ….(1)

where, q_{w} is the heat gained by water

q_{p} is the heat loss by pellet

q_{w} = mCΔT

where m = mass of water

C = specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g-°C

ΔT = Increase in temperature

ΔT for water = 43.4 - 21.4 = 22°C

q_{w} = m × 4.184 × 22 …. (2)

Now

q_{p} = H_{c} ×ΔT

where H_{c} = Heat capacity of pellet = 56J/°C

Δ T for pellet = 43.4 - 113 =- 69.6°C

q_{p} = 56 × -69.6 = -3897.6 J

From equation (1) and (2)

-m× 4.184 × 22 =-3897.6

m= 42.34 g

Hence, 42.34 g of water could be warmed from 21.4 degrees Celsius to 43.4 degrees Celsius by the pellet dropped inside it.

The pressure of a basketball is 412 mmHg. How many kPa is that equal to?
pychu [463]

Answer:

d. 54.9 kPa

Explanation:

mmHg and Pa are units of pressure used in chemistry principally in the study of gases. 1mmHg is equal to 133.322Pa. 412mmHg are:

412 mmHg * (133.322Pa / 1mmHg) = 54929 Pa

The prefix K (Kilo) represents one thousand of the determined unit.

54929Pa are:

54929Pa * (1KPa / 1000Pa) = 54.9kPa

Right answer is:

<h3>d. 54.9 kPa </h3>
