Answer:

d. may melt if heat is transferred to it from hot mantle rock rising up into the crust.

Explanation:

Hot, solid rock in the Earth's crust is a solid outer region of the Earth, Underneath the Earth Structure lies the mantle which is composed of solid rocks especially granite and basalt. The mantle is very hot and may melt if heat is transferred to it from hot mantle rock rising up into the crust therefore forming a molten magma. It may even be hotter (and not cooler as it was stated in the option A which makes it the wrong answer) than the surface lava because of the pressure of the overlying rock. As such, This effect is seen when a volcanic eruption occurs.

jeka94

Answer:

T_f = 25.05°C

Explanation:

Given:

the value of ΔHcomb (heat of combustion) for dimethylphthalate (C10H10O4) is = 4685 kJ/mol.

mass = 0.905g of dimethylphthalate

molar mass = 194.18g dimethylphthalate

number of moles of dimethylphthalate = ???

T_i = 21.5°C

C_{calorimeter} = 6.15 kJ/°C

T_f = ???

since we have our molar mass and mass of dimethylphthalate ;we can determine the number of moles as;

0.905g of dimethylphthalate ×  \frac{1 mole (dimethylphthalate)}{194.184g(dimethylphthalate)}

number of moles of dimethylphthalate = 0.000466 moles

Heat released = moles of dimethylphthalate × heat of combustion

=  0.000466 moles × 4685 kJ

= 21.84 kJ

∴ Heat absorbed by the calorimeter =  C_{calorimeter} (T_f-T_i} )

21.84 kJ =6.15 kJ/°C * (T_f-21,5^0C)

21.84 KJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f) - (6.15 kJ/^0C*21.5^0C)

21.84 KJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f) - 132.225 kJ

21.84 KJ + 132.225 kJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)

154.065 kJ = (6.15 kJ/^0C * T_f)

T_f = \frac{154.065kJ}{6.15kJ/^0C}

T_f =25.05°C

What is the empirical formula for a substance that is composed of 40.66% carbon, 8.53% Hydrogen,23.72% Nitrogen, and 27.09% Oxyg
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

THE EMPIRICAL FORMULA OF THE SUBSTANCE IS C2H5NO

Explanation:

The steps involved in calculating the empirical formula of this substance in shown in the table below:

Element                            Carbon           Hydrogen          Nitrogen         Oxygen

1. % Composition              40.66              8.53                 23.72                27.09

2. Mole ratio =

%mass/ atomic mass       40.66/12         8.53/1          23.72/14            27.09/16

                                       =  3.3883            8.53              1,6943             1.6931

3. Divide by smallest

value (0.6931)          3.3883/1.6931    8.53/1.6931    1.6943/1.6931   1.6931/1.6931

                               =      2.001                  5.038           1.0007                      1

4. Whole number ratio        2                       5                   1                               1

The empirical formula = C2H5NO

A wooden tool is found at an archaeological site. Estimate the age of the tool using the following information: A 100 gram sampl
lord [1]

Answer:

2578.99 years

Explanation:

Given that:

100 g of the wood is emitting 1120 β-particles per minute

Also,

1 g of the wood is emitting 11.20 β-particles per minute

Given, Decay rate = 15.3 % per minute per gram

So,

Concentration left can be calculated as:-

C left = [A_t]=\frac{11.20\ per\ minute}{15.3\ per\ minute\ per\ gram}\times [A_0]= 0.7320[A_0]

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Also, Half life of carbon-14 = 5730 years

t_{1/2}=\frac {ln\ 2}{k}

Where, k is rate constant

So,  

k=\frac {ln\ 2}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac {ln\ 2}{5730}\ years^{-1}

The rate constant, k = 0.000120968 year⁻¹

Time =?

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

So,  

\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]}=e^{-0.000120968\times t}

\frac {0.7320[A_0]}{[A_0]}=e^{-0.000120968\times t}

0.7320=e^{-0.000120968\times t}

ln\ 0.7320=-0.000120968\times t

<u>t = 2578.99 years</u>
