Answer:

8.9 KJ

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of strip = 251 g

Initial temperature = 22.8 °C

Final temperature = 75.9 °C

Specific heat  capacity of granite = 0.67 j/g.°C

Heat absorbed = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 75.9 °C - 22.8 °C

ΔT = 53.1 °C

Now we will put the values in formula,

Q = 251 g × 0.67 j/g.°C × 53.1 °C

Q = 8929.8 J

Jolue to KJ conversion.

8929.8J ×1 KJ / 1000 J

8.9 KJ

What happens immediately before a volcano erupts?
Firdavs [7]
Well, the cause of a volcanic eruption is when the lower crust melts. This leads to the formation of magma. The volcano is an opening through which the magma is discharged. The rock inside the earth melts. This magma is diffused upwards through the volcano. If magma reaches the top of the volcano, it behaviour depends on viscosity. So what happens before a volcanic eruption is that the lower crust melts, causing the formation of magma, which is released through the volcano. Hope i helped.

What salt is formed by the reaction of potassium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid?
Nina [5.8K]

Potassium hydroxide (KOH) is formed when Potassium forms ionic bonds with OH-ions while Potassium Oxide (K2O) is formed when potassium forms ionic bonds with the Oxide (O2-) ions. i.e. This reaction is a neutralization reaction and occurs when an acid (HCl) reacts with a base (KOH).
