Answer:

The specific heat capacity of quartz is 0.71 J/g°C.

Explanation:

Heat lost by quartz will be equal to heat gained by the water

-Q_1=Q_2

Mass of quartz= m_1=51.9 g

Specific heat capacity of quartz= c_1=?

Initial temperature of the quartz= T_1=97.8^oC

Final temperature = T_2=T  = 19.3^oC

Q_1=m_1c_1\times (T-T_1)

Mass of water=m_2=300.0 g

Specific heat capacity of water= c_2=4.18 J/g^oC

Initial temperature of the water = T_3=17.0 ^oC

Final temperature of water = T_2=T=19.3^oC

Q_2=m_2c_2\times (T-T_3)

-Q_1=Q_2

-(m_1c_1\times (T-T_1))=m_2c_2\times (T-T_3)

On substituting all values:

-(51.9 gc_1\times (19.3^oC-97.8^oC))=300.0 g\times 4.18 J/g^oC\times (19.3^oC-170^oC)

we get:

c_1 =0.7079 J/g^oC\approx 0.71 J/g^oC

The specific heat capacity of quartz is 0.71 J/g°C.

As you go down a family or group on the periodic table *
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The elements become less reactive.

Explanation:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction and reactivity increases because of greater electron affinity.

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased. The electron affinity decreases because of shielding effect and thus atom become less reactive.

If the rate of decomposition of ammonia, NH3, at 1150 K is 2.10 x 10-6 mol/L/s, what is the
Alina [70]

Answer:

3.15 × 10⁻⁶ mol H₂/L.s

1.05 × 10⁻⁶ mol N₂/L.s

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 NH₃ ⇒ 3 H₂ + N₂

Step 2: Calculate the rate of production of H₂

The molar ratio of NH₃ to H₂ is 2:3. Given the rate of decomposition of NH₃ is 2.10 × 10⁻⁶ mol/L.s, the rate of production of H₂ is:

2.10 × 10⁻⁶ mol NH₃/L.s × 3 mol H₂/2 mol NH₃ = 3.15 × 10⁻⁶ mol H₂/L.s

Step 3: Calculate the rate of production of N₂

The molar ratio of NH₃ to N₂ is 2:1. Given the rate of decomposition of NH₃ is 2.10 × 10⁻⁶ mol/L.s, the rate of production of N₂ is:

2.10 × 10⁻⁶ mol NH₃/L.s × 1 mol N₂/2 mol NH₃ = 1.05 × 10⁻⁶ mol N₂/L.s

at a certain pressure the density of superficial carbon dioxide is 0.469. what is the mass of a 25.0 mL sample of supercritical
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{11.7 g}}

Explanation:

\text{Mass} = \text{25.0 mL} \times \dfrac{\text{0.469 g}}{\text{1 mL}} = \textbf{11.7 g}\\\\\text{The mass of the carbon dioxide is $\large \boxed{\textbf{11.7 g}}$}
