Answer:

The specific heat of the aluminium can is 0.89 J/g°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the aluminium can = 10.0 grams

The amount of energy absorbed = 106.8 J

The temperature rises 12.0 °C

Step 2: Calculate the specific heat of the aluminium can

Q = m*c* ΔT

⇒with Q = the heat absorbed = 106.8 J

⇒with m = the mass of the aluminium can = 10.0 grams

⇒with c = the specific heat of the aluminium can = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with ΔT = the rise of the temperature = 1.0°C

106.8 J = 10.0 grams * C * 12.0 °C

C = 106.8 J / (10.0 grams * 12.0 °C)

C = 0.89 J/g°C

The specific heat of the aluminium can is 0.89 J/g°C

Answer:

THE SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY OF THE ALUMINIUM CAN IS 0.03747 J/g K

Explanation:

Heat liberated (Q) = MCΔT

Heat = 106.8 J

M = mass = 10 g

ΔT = 12°C= 12 + 273 K = 285 K

C = specific heat capacity = unknown

At a rise in 12 °C temperature, the aluminium can possesses a specific heat capacity of =

C = Q / MΔT

C = 106.8 J / 10 g * 285 K

C = 106.8 J / 2850 g K

C = 0.03747 J/g K

The specific heat capacity of the aluminum can weighing 10 g and absorbs 106.8 J of heat after been warmed to 12°C is 0.03747 J/ g K

A 25 kg rock is placed in a graduated cylinder with water.the volume of the fluid is 18.3ml.calculate the density of the rock in
ipn [44]

Answer:

=> 1366.120 g/mL.

Explanation:

To determine the formula to use in solving such a problem, you have to consider what you have been given.

We have;

mass (m)     = 25 Kg

Volume (v) = 18.3 mL.

From our question, we are to determine the density (rho) of the rock.

The formula:

p = \frac{m}{v}

First let's convert 25 Kg to g;

1 Kg    = 1000 g

25 Kg = ?

= \frac{25 × 1000}{1}

= 25000 g

Substitute the values into the formula:

p =  \frac{25000 g}{18.3 ml}

= 1366.120 g/mL.

Therefore, the density (rho) of the rock is  1366.120 g/mL.

Answer:

Leukonychia is a condition where white lines or dots appear on your finger or toenails. This is a very common issue and entirely harmless. Many healthy adults have these spots at some point in their lives, so developing them is likely not a sign of a serious medical condition.

5. If all the particles in a material are made up of
mel-nik [20]

If all the particles in a material are made up of

several smaller particles, and every larger particle

is identical, is the material a pure substance or

not? Explain your reasoning.

A pure substance is something like a compound and element. This material made of several particles which seem to be two different particles, I believe, is a mixture. So, it is not a pure substance mixtures are made up of more than one particle while compounds (In a fixed ratio, the fusion of two or more than two atoms) and elements are made up of one molecule essentially.
