Answer:

= 1.271 J/g°C

Explanation:

Heat released by the metal sample will be equivalent to the heat absorbed by  water.

But heat = mass × specific heat capacity × temperature change

Thus;

Heat released by the solid;

= 225 g × c ×(67 -53) , where c is the specific heat capacity of the metal

= 3150 c joules

Heat absorbed by water;

= 25.6 g × 4.18 J/g°C × (53-15.6)

= 4002.0992  joules

Therefore;

3150 c joules = 4002.0992 joules

c =4002.0992/3150

 <u> = 1.271 J/g°C</u>

maxonik [38]
Density (d) which is the quotient when mass (m) is divided by volume (v) is usually reported in terms of g/mL. 
                                  d = m /v
Substituting the known values,
                                d = (1.62 kg) x (1000 g/ 1 kg) / (205 mL)
The answer would be approximately equal to 7.9 g/mL.

31. calculate the amount of energy released as heat by the freezing of 13.3 g of a liquid substance, given that the substance ha
spin [16.1K]

From the calculations, the heat of fusion of the substance is 0.73 kJ

<h3>What is is the heat of freezing?</h3>

The heat of freezing is the energy released when the substance is converted from liquid to solid.

Now we know that the molar mass of the substance is 82.9 g/mol  hence the number of moles of the substance is;  13.3 g /82.9 g/mol  = 0.16 moles

Now the heat of fusion shall be;

H = 4.60 kj/mol * 0.16 moles

H = 0.73 kJ

If density usually increases with decreasing temperature, why does ice float on liquid water? Explain.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

If you continue to cool water past 4 degrees Celsius, its density starts to plummet (you can see this in the graph). At zero degrees, i.e., the temperature at which water turns into ice, the density of water is actually quite low. It turns out that ice has a lower density than water, and any object that has a lower density than the liquid form on which it’s kept (in this case, water) will be able to float!

Which type of reaction is Pb(NO3)2 + 2HCl → PbCl2 + 2HNO3?
Ganezh [65]

Answer:- D. Double- replacement reaction

Explanations:- In general, the decomposition reactions looks like:

AB\rightarrow A+B

The given reaction looks different than this and so it is not decomposition reaction.

A single-replacement reaction looks like:

AB+C\rightarrow AC+B

Our reaction looks different from this so single-replacement is also not correct.

Synthesis reaction looks exactly opposite to decomposition reaction.

A+B\rightarrow AB

The given reaction is different than this and so it is not synthesis reaction also.

A double-replacement reaction looks like:

AB+CD\rightarrow AD+CB

In this reaction, the ions are exchanged as could be seen in the general reaction. On reaction side,A is with B and C is with D. On product side, A is with D and C is with B.

The same is happening in the given reaction. Nitrate ion is with lead metal on reactant side and chlorine is with hydrogen, On product side, Chlorine is with lead metal and nitrate ion is with hydrogen. So, ion exchange has taken place here and so this is a double-replacement reaction and choice D is correct.
