Gallium is a solid metal at room temperature but melts at 29.9 °C. If you hold gallium in your hand, it melts from body heat. Ho

w much heat must 2.5 g of gallium absorb from your hand to raise its temperature from 25.0 °C to 29.9 °C? The specific heat capacity of gallium is 0.372 J/g °C

Answer:  4.56 Joules

Explanation:-

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

Q = Heat absorbed = ?

m= mass of substance = 2.5 g

c = specific heat capacity = 0.372J/g^0C

Initial temperature  = T_i = 25.0°C

Final temperature  = T_f  = 29.9°C

Change in temperature ,\Delta T=T_f-T_i=(29.9-25.0)^0C=4.90^0C

Putting in the values, we get:

Q=2.5\times 0.372\times 4.90^0C

Q=4.56J

The heat absorbed by gallium must be 4.56 Joules

Rank these systems in order of decreasing entropy. 1 = Greatest entropy and 7 = Least entropy. Group of answer choices 1 mol of
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

  1. 1 mole of carbon disulfide gas at 273 K and 40 L
  2. 1 mol of chlorine gas at 273 K and 40 L
  3. 1 mol of neon gas at 273 K and 40 L
  4. 1 mol of neon gas at 273 K and 20 L
  5. 1/2 mol of neon gas at 273 K and 20 L
  6. 1/2 mol of neon gas at 100 K and 20 L
  7. 1/2 mol of liquid neon at 100 K

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of disorder or randomness in a closed system. Its an extensive property of a thermodynamic system

The following points must be considered when ranking the systems according to their entropy:

  1. The entropy of gases are highest than liquids or solid. And entropy of liquid is higher than solid. That is because gas has more microstate thus have the highest entropy.
  2. Entropies of large complicated molecules are greater than those of smaller, simpler molecules. Because larger molecules have more disorder because of the greater number of ways they can be move around in three dimensional space.
  3. highest temperature and highest volume will lead to greatest entropy
  4. 1 mole of any substance will have greater entropy than 1/2 mole of that same substance

Which of the following pure liquids is the best solvent for sodium fluoride?a. CCl4b. C2C6c. HCld. BCl3e. PCl5
Julli [10]

Answer:

HCl

Explanation:

The best solvent for NaF is a polar liquid. The only liquid having a significant dipole moment among the options is HCl due to the large electro negativity difference between hydrogen and chlorine.

The polar solvent can interact with the NaF via its dipoles such that the NaF dissolves due to ion-dipole interaction.

Radar detectors use radio waves to measure the speed of moving
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

1.7x10^8 Hz

Explanation:

Frequency could be explained as the number of occurrences of a repeating event at a time

Given:

wavelength = 1.8 meters

The frequency f of the waves can be calculated using f = c / λ

Where c (m/s) is the speed of the wave

λ (m) is the wavelength

Speed c= 3*10^8 m/s

Frequency f= 3*10^8 /1.8

Frequency= 1.7x10^8 Hz

Therefore,the frequency of waves from a radar detector is 1.7x10^8 Hz
