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.

Which of the following BEST states the Law of Conservation of Matter? *
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

A. The total mass of the reactants in a reaction equals the total mass of the product(s).

Explanation:

The law of conversation of matter tells us that in a chemical reaction, matter is never created or destroyed, it's simply converted from one form to another. So the mass of reactants should always equal the mass of the products in a chemical reaction.

What volume of 0. 250 m sulfuric acid solution would be needed to react completely with 18. 00 ml of 0. 350 m ammonia solution?
PolarNik [594]

The volume of 0. 250 m sulfuric acid solution would be needed to react completely with 18. 00 ml of 0. 350 m ammonia solution is 0.0504 L.

The balance reaction is 2KOH+H_{2} SO_{4}=2H_{2} O+K_{2} SO_{4}

This shows us that we need 2 moles of KOH for each mole of sulfuric acid.

So, we write mathematically 2*(0.018*0.350)=(V*0.250)

V=(2*0.018*0.350)/0.250=0.0504 L

<h3>Sulfuric acid</h3>

With the chemical formula H2SO4, sulfuric acid, also known as sulphuric acid or oil of vitriol, is a mineral acid made up of the elements hydrogen, oxygen, and sulfur. It is a viscous liquid that is miscible with water and is colorless, odorless, and viscous.

Since pure sulfuric acid has a significant affinity for water vapor, it does not naturally occur on Earth; as a result, it is hygroscopic and rapidly collects water vapor from the atmosphere. Due to its potent dehydrating and oxidizing qualities, concentrated sulfuric acid is extremely corrosive to various materials, including rocks and metals. One significant exception is phosphorus pentoxide, which dehydrates sulfuric acid to sulfur trioxide instead of being dehydrated by sulfuric acid.

What is the relationship between nucleic acids and nucleotides?
maw [93]

The nucleotides are monomers of nucleic acid.

The nucleic acids are the macro molecules. They are two types- DNA and RNA. The nucleic acid, DNA consists of nucleotide which are monomers of the DNA. The nucleotides have three components such as pentose sugar, nitrogen bases, and phosphate.

They are the backbone of DNA. DNA is the polymer of nucleotide, and this DNA is coming under nucleic acids. The nucleotides form DNA, and DNA forms the nucleic acid. They are interlinked with each other.

Nucleic acids are the center for storing all the information. The deoxyribose nucleic acid or DNA is the center for storing all the genetic information.

The genetic material is inherited from the parents to the children. The characters are transferred from one generation to another.

The characters such as hair color, hair type, eye color are some of the genetic information that is carried from one generation to another via nucleic acids.

Nucleotide is the basic unit of nucleic acid (DNA and RNA) which store the genetic code of the cell.

It consists of sugar base (ribose or deoxyribose), nitrogenous base (A, T, G, C and U), and phosphate group.

Nucleotides (specially ATP) provides the energy for most of the cellular processes.

Therefore, with the above statements we got to know that both nucleic acid and nucleotides are genetically modified.

Jill formed ionic compounds using the index cards she combined sodium and zinc to form the compound na2zn is this a possible a i
expeople1 [14]
<span>No. Zn can only have oxidation states of 1+ or 2+. For this compound to be able to exist, the Zn would have to have an oxidation state of 2- to counteract the 2+ from the 2 sodium ions. Sodium ions each have a +1 charge, so the 2 sodium ions would carry a +2 charge. In order for the compound to exist, the net charge between the 2 sodium and 1 zinc atoms would need to be 0.</span>
