Answer:

0.296j/g⁰c

Explanation:

we have the following information from this question before us.

mass iv substance = 50grams

we have initial temperature ti = 20.2⁰c

final temperature = 125⁰c

the energy that was provided = 155kj

we proceed with this formula

energy = mcΔT

1.55x10³ = 50 x c x (125-20.2)

1.55x10³ = c x 50gm x 104.8k

we divide through to get c

c = 1.55x10³/50g x 104.8

c = 0.296J/g⁰c

that is the specific heat of this substance.

thank you!

A metal weighing 7.101 g is placed in a graduated cylinder containing 33.0 mL of water. The water level rose to the 37.4 mL mark
musickatia [10]
Volume of the metal = change in volume reading
Volume = 37.4 - 33
Volume = 4.4 ml

Density = mass / volume
Density = 7.101 / 4.4
Density = 1.61 g/ml

How could you verify that you produced carbon dioxide in your combustion reaction? 2. what indication did you have that nh3 was
DanielleElmas [232]

1) Carbon dioxide is a gas, so when CO_{2} is evolved in the reaction, it appears as bubbles. The gas released extinguishes the fire and it can turn lime water milky.

Ca(OH)_{2} (aq) + CO_{2}(g) ----> CaCO_{3}(s) +H_{2}O(l)

2) When NH_{3} is released in a decomposition reaction we can identify by the strong pungent smell of the gas released.

3) Saturated citric acid can cause corrosion of the metal layers present in the pipes. So, before draining out any acid it is neutralized so that the pipes and other plumbing works do not get damaged leading to leaks in the drainage system.
