Answer:

6750 J

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of iron is 450 J/kg/K

Quantity of heat = mcθ; where m is the mass and c is the specific heat capacity and θ is the temperature change.

Therefore;

m = 3 kg, c = 450 J/kg/K and θ = 5°C

Quantity of heat = 3 × 450 × 5

<u>= 6150 Joules</u>

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Explanation: Volume versus Temperature: Raising the temperature of a gas increases the average kinetic energy and therefore the rms speed (and the average speed) of the gas molecules. Hence as the temperature increases, the molecules collide with the walls of their containers more frequently and with greater force.

A six-carbon organic compound containing oxygen is suspected of being either a secondary alcohol or a ketone. which chemical or

White raven [17]

Following are the possible isomers of secondary alcohol and ketones for six carbon molecules. In order to distinguish between sec. alcohol and ketone we can simply treat the unknown compound with acidified Potassium Dichromate (VI) in the presence of acid. If with treatment with unknown compound the colour of K2Cr2O7 (potassium dichromate VI) changes from orange to green then it is confirmed that the unknown compound is sec. alcohol, or if no change in colour is detected then ketone is confirmed. This is because ketone can not be further oxidized while, sec. alcohol can be oxidized to ketones as shown below,
