If, as a pioneer, you wished to warm your room by taking an object heated on top of a pot-bellied stove to it, which of the foll

owing 15-pound objects, each heated to 100°C, would be the best choice? The specific heat capacity (in J/g·K) for each substance is given in parentheses. Iron (0.450), copper (0.387), granite (0.79), gold (0.129), water (4.184).

Answer:

Waterwould be the best choice

Explanation:

<em>The specific heat capacity</em> refers to how much energy is required to raise the temperature of an object. The higher the specific heat capacity, the more energy is required to heat a given substance. This would also mean that w<u>ith a higher specific heat capacity, a substance would be able to retain more heat</u>.

With the above statements in mind, water would be the best choice, because it would retain more heat than the other substances once it reaches 100 °C, and in turn water would emit the most heat while it cools.

Liquid water is about 800 times denser than dry air under standard conditions. Use kinetic molecular theory to explain this diff
Savatey [412]

<em>Kinetic molecular Theory points:</em>

1. Gases molecules are always in random motion.

2. Gases molecule collide with each other and with the walls of container.

3.  Gases molecules total volume is negligible as compare to container.

4. There is no attractive forces between the gases particles

5. K.E is directly proportional to absolute temperature.

<em>Why liquid are denser than gases according to K.M.T:</em>

1. As gases are in random motion, so they have weak forces/ no attractive forces (Acc. to KMT) due to this they are apart as compare to liquid which have stronger forces are closer to each other. So volume of gases will be greater. d= m/v

2.  K. E of gases are greater than liquid due to this gases move randomly, apart from each another. Due to this their volume will be greater. d= m/v

3. Gases molecules total volume is negligible as compare to container which show that gases molecules have large spaces between them which causes lower in density.

Consider the hypothetical reaction 3A + 4B → C + 2D Over an interval of 2.50 s the average rate of change of the concentration o
faust18 [17]

Answer:

Final [B] = 1.665 M

Explanation:

3A + 4B → C + 2D

Average rection rate = 3[A]/Δt = 4[B]/Δt = [C]/Δt = 2[D]/Δt

0.05600 M/s = 4 [B]/ 2.50 s

[B] = 0.035 M (concentration of B consumed)

Final [B] = initial [B] - consumed [B]

Final [B] = 1.700 M - 0.035 M

Final [B] = 1.665 M

The titration of a 20.0-mLmL sample of an H2SO4H2SO4 solution of unknown concentration requires 22.87 mLmL of a 0.158 M KOHM KOH
kkurt [141]

Answer:

0.0905 M

Explanation:

Let's consider the neutralization reaction between H2SO4 and KOH.

H₂SO₄ + 2 KOH → K₂SO₄ + 2 H₂O

22.87 mL of 0.158 M KOH react. The reacting moles of KOH are:

0.02287 L × 0.158 mol/L = 3.61 × 10⁻³ mol

The molar ratio of H₂SO₄ to KOH is 1:2. The reacting moles of H₂SO₄ are 1/2 × 3.61 × 10⁻³ mol = 1.81 × 10⁻³ mol

1.81 × 10⁻³ moles of H₂SO₄ are in 20.0 mL. The molarity of H₂SO₄ is:

M = 1.81 × 10⁻³ mol / 0.0200 L = 0.0905 M

How does intertia affect gymnastics
Olegator [25]
Inertia is resistance to changes in motion. Which means if you are at rest it takes an external force to get you moving. And once you are moving it takes an external force to change the direction of that motion. 

<span>For a person doing gymnastics the point that is subject to the above statement is her center of mass (roughly her belly button) . </span>

<span>So for example, once you launch into the air, gravity is the only significant force on you. It keeps you from traveling out into space by pulling you down and the trajectory of your belly button is a parabola. Now there is nothing you can do with your muscles (internal forces) to change that trajectory, even though you can do twists & turns about the center of mass. The height and range of the parabolic trajectory is determined by the angle & speed at which you initially launch yourself.
_____________________________________________________________
</span><span>inertia is one of newtons laws of motion so an object in motion tends to remain in motion until another force acts upon it that is what newton said when you are doing a back hand spring it is easier to keep going then to stop
</span><span>_____________________________________________________________

Hope this helps!!! :D 
I love gymnastics!!!!</span>
