Answer:

5927.3488 calorie/g

Explanation:

For peanut butter:

Mass = 15 g

Initial temperature = 22.4 °C

Final temperature = 25.5 °C

Specific heat of calorimeter, C = 120 kJ/°C

Considering

Q=C\times (T_f-T_i)

Q=120\ kJ/^0C\times (25.5-22.4)\ ^0C

Q=372\ kJ

Also,

1 kJ = 239.006 calories

So, Heat = 372*239.006 calories = 88910.232 calories

15 g of the peanut butter gives 88910.232 calories

<u>So, the food caloric content of peanut butter = 88910.232 calories/ 15 g = 5927.3488 calorie/g</u>

Classify each of the following particulate level illustrations as a representation of either a pure substance, a homogeneous mix
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The classification and illustrations are attached in the drawing.

Explanation:

It is possible to identify the pure substance observing the figure, since it is the only one that has 2 joined atoms (purple and blue) which forms a single compound.

On the other hand, the homogeneous mixture is identified by noting that its atoms are more united with respect to the heterogeneous mixture, highlighting that in homogenous mixtures the atoms, elements or substances are not visible to the naked eye and are in a single phase, instead in the heterogeneous mixture if they can be differentiated.

Give the chemical symbol of an element in the third period (row) of the periodic table with four 3p electrons.
Ann [662]

<u>Answer: </u>The chemical symbol of the element is Sulfur.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The element which is present in third period of the periodic table having four 3p electrons is Sulfur. Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table which has 6 valance electrons.

The electronic configuration of this element is:  [Ne]3s^23p^4

This element is considered as a non-metal because it will accept electrons in order to attain stable electronic configuration.

Hence, the chemical symbol of the element is Sulfur.
