When a student chemist transferred the metal to the calorimeter, some water splashed out of the calorimeter. will this technique

error result in the specific heat of the metal being reported too high or too low?

Answer:

It will be reported too low.

Explanation:

To measure the specific heat of the metal (s), the calorimeter may be used. In it, the metal will exchange heat with the water, and they will reach thermal equilibrium. Because it can be considered an isolated system (there're aren't dissipations) the total amount of heat (lost by metal + gained by water) must be 0.

Qmetal + Qwater = 0

Qmetal = -Qwater

The heat is the mass multiplied by the specific heat multiplied by the temperature change. If c is the specific heat of the water:

m_metal*s*ΔT_metal = - m_water *c*ΔT_water

s = -m_water *c*ΔT_water / m_metal*ΔT_metal

So, if m_water is now less than it was supposed to be, s will be reported too low, because they are directly proportional.

t physiological pH, the carboxylic acid group of an amino acid will be ________, while the amino group will be ________, yieldin
astraxan [27]

Answer:

At physiological pH,the carboxylic acid group of an amino acid will be deprotonated while the amino group will be protonated,yielding the zwitter ion form.

Explanation:

Deprotonated means removal of protons in an acid base reaction and protonated means addition of protons in an acid base reaction.

Both protonated and de protonated reaction takes place in catalytic acid bade reaction by changing either it's mass or it's charge.

During formation of zwitter ion, the carboxylic acid will be deprotonated by donating the H+ ion while the amino acid is protonated by taking the H+ ion.

R-CH-COOH                               R-CH-COO-

   I                                ⇒                 I

  NH₂                                              NH₃               (Zwitter ion)

Answer:

Explanation:

21. Atoms are not created or destroyed means that atoms that you begin with are the atoms that you will end with. The catch is that the atoms will rearrange to give you new compounds, but the atoms that you initially had are the atoms you will still have after reaction. For eg, if you started with eggs and made omelet. Omelet is a "new" compound, but the atoms that were in the eggs have rearranged to become the omelet so can you see that atoms were not created or destroyed to make the omelet.

22. Yes because amount of products you make depends on how much reactants you have. For eg, I need two graham cracker(GC), one marshmallow(M), and one chocolate (C) to make a s'more. If I get more of each item then I can make more s'mores and consequently having minimum amounts results in less s'mores that I make.

23. Not possible, due to law of conservation of matter and energy. Atoms cannot be created nor be destroyed, they are simply rearranged. For eg, Taking A + B cannot give you a new compound with a chemical formula D or XZ. A + B can however give you AB which is rearrangement of the starting atoms.

24. Chemical equation is balanced when atoms on reactant side and atoms of product side are in equal counts. I have attached a graphic below for more help.

Which of these compounds is a proton acceptor ?
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Sodium Hydroxide

Please mark me as brainlest because I have help you pleaseeeee.

Explanation:

Sodium hydroxide is a common proton acceptor also known as lye. It is the active ingredient in oven cleaners and drain cleaners because it can react with fats to produce compounds that dissolve in water. It is also used in many school laboratories to demonstrate acid-base reactions.
