A 75.00 gram sample of an unknown metal initially at 99.0 degrees Celcius is added to 50.00 grams of water initially at 10.79 de

grees Celcius. The final temperature of the system is 20.15 degrees Celcius. Calculate the specific heat of the metal. (The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g*C).

Answer:

  c_{e1} = 0.331 J / g ° C

Explanation:

We have a calorimetry exercise where all the heat yielded by one of the components is absorbed by the other.

Heat ceded          Qh = m1 ce1 (T_{h} -T_{f})

Heat absorbed     Qc = m2 ce2 (T_{f} - T₀)

Body 1 is metal and body 2 is water .  Where m are the masses of the two bodies, ce their specific heat and T the temperatures

      Qh = Qc

      m₁ c_{e1} (T_{h}- T_{f}) = m₂  c_{e2} (T_{f} - T₀)

we clear the specific heat of the metal

      c_{e1} = m₂  c_{e2} (T_{f} - T₀) / (m₁ (T_{h}-T_{f}))

     c_{e1}= 50.00 4.184 (20.15 -10.79) / (75.00 (99.0-20.15))

      c_{e1} = 209.2 (9.36) / (75 78.85)

      c_{e1} = 1958.11 / 5913.75

     c_{e1} = 0.331 J / g ° C

Answer:

0.00493 m/s

Explanation:

T = Temperature of the isotope = 85 nK

R = Gas constant = 8.341 J/mol K

M = Molar mass of isotope = 86.91 g/mol

Root Mean Square speed is given by

v_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3RT}{M}}\\\Rightarrow v_r=\sqrt{\dfrac{3\times 8.314\times 85\times 10^{-9}}{86.91\times 10^{-3}}}\\\Rightarrow v_r=0.00493\ m/s

The Root Mean Square speed is 0.00493 m/s

7. A neutral aluminum rod is at rest on a foam insulating base. A negatively charged balloon is brought near one end of the rod
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

If a negatively charged balloon is brought near one end of the rod but not in direct contact, then <u>the negative charges on the balloon repel the same amount of negative charges on the end of the rod that is close to the balloon</u>, and the positive charges stay at the balloon-side of the rod. The total charge of the rod is still zero, but the distribution of the charges are now non-uniform.

If an atom has 13 protons and is currently electrically neutral, what must happen to give the same atom a positive charge of +2e
Alex777 [14]

The atom must lose 2 electrons

Explanation:

An atom consists of three types of particles:

- Protons, in the nucleus, with positive electric charge +e

- Neutrons, in the nucleus, with no electric charge

- Electrons, orbiting around the nucleus, with negative electric charge -e

As a result, the net electric charge of an atom is given by the number of protons minus the number of electrons:

Q = #p - #e

For a neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons is the same, so the net charge is zero.

In order for an atom to have a positive charge of +2, it means that there must be 2 protons more than the number of electrons. Since atoms exchange electrons (and not protons), this means that the atom must have "lost" 2 electrons.

In this problem, we have an atom with 13 protons: this means that initially it also has 13 electrons. However, later the atom lost 2 electrons, and as a result, the final charge is +2e.
