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>

Estimate the molar mass of a gas that effuses at 1.80 times the effusion rate of carbon dioxide. answer in units of g/mol.
Effectus [21]
From Grahams Law the rates of effusion of two gases are inversely proportional to the square roots of their molar masses at the same temperature and pressure.
Therefore; R1/R2 = √mm2/√mm1
The molecular mass of Carbon dioxide is 44 g
Hence;  1.8 = √(44/x
             3.24 = 44/x
                x = 44/3.24
                   = 13.58 
Therefore, the molar mass of the other gas is 13.58 g/mol

A 60.0 kg object is moving east at 8.00 m/s, and then slows down to 4.00 m/s. How much work was done?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

A

-1440J

Explanation:

Hello,

This question requires us to calculate the work done on a object to move it from point A to point B

Data

Mass = 60kg

Initial velocity (V1) = 8.0m/s

Final velocity (V2) = 4.0m/s

Workdone on an object is equal to force applied on the object to move it through a particular distance.

Work done = force × distance

Force (F) = mass × acceleration

Distance = s

F = Ma

Work done = M× a × s

But a = velocity (v) / time (t)

Work done = mvs / t

But velocity = distance/ time

Work done = mv × v/

Work done = mv²

Work done = ½mv²

Workdone = ½M(V2² - V1²)

Workdone = ½ × 60 (4² - 8²)

Work done = 30 × (16 - 64)

Workdone = 30 × (-48)

Work done = -1440J

Work done = -1.44kJ

The workdone on the object is equal to -1.44kJ
