When 28 grams of a metal are heated from 14.4°C to 150°C it takes 23,200). What is the specific heat of the metal?

Answer:

6.11 J/g°C

Explanation:

We need to use the heat equation: q = mCΔT, where q is the amount of heat required in Joules, m is the mass in grams, C is the heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in temperature.

Here, we know q = 23,200 Joules, m = 28 grams, and the ΔT is just the difference of the temperatures: 150 - 14.4 = 135.6°C. Substitute these values to find C:

q = mCΔT

23,200 = 28 * C * 135.6

C = 6.11

Thus, the specific heat is 6.11 J/g°C.

Answer:

6.11 J/g°C

Explanation:

q = mc(delta theta)

23200 = 28 × c × (150 - 14.4)

23200 = 28 × c × 135.6

c = 23200/(28 × 135.6)

c = 6.110408765

Explain how the molecular structure of soap allows it to clean many types of stains. What is a micelle? What is emulsification?
Crank

Answer:

1. The soap molecule is made up of two different ends that include polar head which is hydrophilic carrying carboxylate group (-CO2) (binds with water) and the other is non-polar hydrocarbon tail that is hydrophobic carrying hydrocarbon chain (binds with stain) .

When soap water is added with stain or oil, soap molecules form micelles which are the tiny clusters of soap molecules representing hydrophilic head  (water-loving) points outwards that sticks to the water and hydrophobic tail (oil-loving) points inwards that stick to the oil and trap oil in the center.

As micelle is soluble in water, the trapped oil or stain is rinsed away along with soapy water.

2. A micelle is defined as a cluster of surfactant molecules that are dispersed water and form a colloidal solution.

3. Emulsification is the process in which soap act as an emulsifier that allows dispersion of immiscible liquid. It means soap will disperse stain or dirt in such a way that it can be removed.

4. As we discussed earlier, Soap has hydrophilic (water-loving) carboxylate group (-CO2) that form hydrogen bonds and ion-dipole interactions with water and the hydrophobic (water-fearing) tail carry nonpolar hydrocarbon chain that interacts with a stain by forming micelles through dispersion force.

The negatively charged carboxylate group (hydrophilic) repels each other and hydrocarbon chain (hydrophobic) trap stain inside and remove the dirt along with water.

Heat is transferred directly from a heat reservoir at 200 C to another heat reservoir at 5C. If the amount of heat transferred i
Daniel [21]

Answer:

ΔS=0.148  KJ/K

Explanation:

Given that

Q = 100 KJ

T₁=200°C

T₁=200+273 = 437 K

T₂=5°C

T₂=5 + 273 = 278 K

Reservoir 1 is rejecting heat that is why it taken as negative while the reservoir 2 is gaining the heat that is why it is taken as positive.

So the total change in entropy given as

ΔS=  - Q/T₁ + Q/T₂

ΔS=  - 100/473 + 100/278  KJ/K

ΔS=0.148  KJ/K

Is the reaction between methane and oxygen endothermic or exothermic? Explain why we burn fossil fuels, such as natural gas.
vladimir1956 [14]
The thing that governs whether a reaction is exothermic is the energy given out / used up to break / form the bonds in the reaction. 

<span>When two substances react, the bonds in those substances first break up, releasing energy, before re-forming in a different way, taking in energy. The nature of the bonds that are broken up and reformed determines whether more energy is given out (exothermic) or taken in (endothermic)</span>
