Answer:

10 g

Explanation:

Right from the start, just by inspecting the values given, you can say that the answer will be  

10 g

.

Now, here's what that is the case.

As you know, a substance's specific heat tells you how much heat is needed to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of that substance by  

1

∘

C

.

Water has a specific heat of approximately  

4.18

J

g

∘

C

. This tells you that in order to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

1

∘

C

, you need to provide  

4.18 J

of heat.

Now, how much heat would be required to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

10

∘

C

?

Well, you'd need  

4.18 J

to increase it by  

1

∘

C

, another  

4.18 J

to increase it by another  

1

∘

C

, and so on. This means that you'd need

4.18 J

×

10

=

41.8 J

to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

10

∘

C

.

Now look at the value given to you. If you need  

41.8 J

to increase the temperature of  

1 g

of water by  

10

∘

C

, what mass of water would require  

10

times as much heat to increase its temperature by  

10

∘

C

?

1 g

×

10

=

10 g

And that's your answer.

Mathematically, you can calculate this by using the equation

q

=

m

⋅

c

⋅

Δ

T

 

, where

q

- heat absorbed/lost

m

- the mass of the sample

c

- the specific heat of the substance

Δ

T

- the change in temperature, defined as final temperature minus initial temperature

Plug in your values to get

418

J

=

m

⋅

What is the percent by mass of nahco3 in a solution containing 10 g of nahco3 dissolved in 400 ml of h2o?
Marat540 [252]
Answer is: the percent by mass of NaHCO₃ is 2,43%.
m(NaHCO₃) = 10 g.
V(H₂O) = 400 ml.
d(H₂O) = 1 g/ml.
m(H₂O) = V(H₂O) · d(H₂O).
m(H₂O) = 400 ml · 1 g/ml.
m(H₂O) = 400 g.
m(solution) = m(H₂O) + m(NaHCO₃).
m(solution) = 400 g + 10 g.
m(solution) = 410 g.
ω(NaHCO₃) = 10 g ÷ 410 g · 100%.
ω(NaHCO₃) = 2,43 %

A person tries to heat up her bath water by adding 5.0 l of water at 80c to 60 l of water at 30c. what is the final temperature
Sophie [7]
We can calculate the final temperature from this formula :

when Tf = (V1* T1) +(V2* T2) / (V1+ V2)

when V1 is the first volume of water = 5 L 

and V2 is the second  volume of water = 60 L

and T1 is the first temperature of water in Kelvin = 80 °C +273 = 353 K

and T2 is the second temperature of water in Kelvin =  30°C + 273= 303 K

and Tf is the final temperature of water in Kelvin 

so, by substitution:

Tf = (5 L * 353 K ) + ( 60 L * 303 K) / ( 5 L + 60 L)

     = 1765 + 18180 / 65 L

     = 306 K
     = 306 -273 = 33° C

Give the n and l values and the number of orbitals for sublevel 5g.
Pepsi [2]

The n and l values and the number of orbitals for sublevel 5g is :

5g shell , n= 5 subshell g , l = 4, Number of orbitals for sublevel = 9.

There are total four quantum numbers:

1) Principal quantum number , n

2) Angular quantum number , l

3) Magnetic quantum number , ml

4) spin quantum number , ms

For 5g shell, n = 5

subshell g , l = 4     ....0 - s , 1 - p , 2 - d, 3 - f, 4 -g

number of orbitals in subshell = (2l + 1)  ( 2×4 + 1) = 9

Thus,  The n and l values and the number of orbitals for sublevel 5g is :

5g shell , n= 5 subshell g , l = 4, Number of orbitals for sublevel = 9.

when a number in scientific notation contains a significant zero, is that zero also significant in the expanded notation? give t
AlexFokin [52]
I believe you are referring zero as the exponent. <span>Any number (except 0) with exponent 0 is defined to mean 1.
</span>

For one thing, there is a rule: 

<span> a^m/ a^m = a^m-m = a^0

</span>But (when a is not equal to <span>0),
</span>
a^m/ a^m = 1

Therefore, we must define a^0 as 1.
