Answer:

The metal has a heat capacity of 0.385 J/g°C

This metal is copper.

Explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>: Data given

Mass of the metal = 21 grams

Volume of water = 100 mL

 ⇒ mass of water = density * volume = 1g/mL * 100 mL = 100 grams

Initial temperature of metal = 122.5 °C

Initial temperature of water = 17°C

Final temperature of water and the metal = 19 °C

Heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C

<u />

<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate the specific heat capacity

Heat lost by the metal = heat won by water

Qmetal = -Qwater

Q = m*c*ΔT

m(metal) * c(metal) * ΔT(metal) = - m(water) * c(water) * ΔT(water)

21 grams * c(metal) *(19-122.5) = -100 * 4.184 * (19-17)

-2173.5 *c(metal) = -836.8

c(metal) = 0.385 J/g°C

The metal has a heat capacity of 0.385 J/g°C

This metal is copper.

A sample of a gas at 25°C has a volume of 150 mL when its pressure is 0.947 atm. What will the temperature of the gas be at a pr
sertanlavr [38]

Answer: The temperature of the gas at a pressure of  0.987 atm and volume of 144mL is 25.16^0C

Explanation:

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 0.947 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 0.987 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 150 ml

V_2 = final volume of gas = 144 ml    

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 25^0C=(25+273.15)K=298.15K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{0.947\times 150}{298.15}=\frac{0.987\times 144}{T_2}

T_2=298.31K=(298.31-273.15)^0C=25.16^0C

The temperature of the gas at a pressure of  0.987 atm and volume of 144mL is 25.16^0C
