Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
heat gained by metal + heat lost by water = 0
m₁C₁ΔT₁ + m₂C₂ΔT₂ = 0
C₁ = -(m₂C₂ΔT₂)/(m₁ΔT₁)
The factors determining C₁ are
- mass of water
- temperature change of water (T_f - Ti)
- mass of metal
- temperature change of metal (T_f - Ti)
Any factor that makes the numerator higher or the denominator lower than what you thought, will give a calculated C₁ that is too high (and vice versa).
The major sources of uncertainty are probably in determining the temperatures, especially the initial and final temperatures of the metal. However, you will have to decide what the principal factors were in your experiment.
For example, did the metal have a chance to cool during the transfer to the calorimeter? How easy was it to determine the equilibrium temperature, etc?
Factors Affecting the Calculation of Specific Heat Capacity
<u> Too Low </u> <u> Too high </u>
Water Water
Mass less than thought Mass more than thought
Ti lower Ti higher
T_f higher T_f lower
Metal Metal
Mass more than thought Mass less than thought
Ti higher Ti lower
Answer:
The correct option is C.
Explanation:
Nuclear and chemical reactions are two types of reactions that one usually encounter in chemistry. These two reactions differ from each other significantly. For instance, the nuclear reactions usually involve the nucleus of the involving atoms while chemical reactions has to do with the electrons that are located outside of the nucleus of the atoms. Also, it is only chemical reaction that are influenced by factors such as temperature, pressure, catalyst, etc. Such factors does not determine the rate of nuclear reactions.
Hello!
Before I can answer your question we need to know the different types of chemical reactions that can occur:
- Single Replacement
- Double Replacement
- Synthesis
- Decomposition
- Combustion
Combustion is an answer that can usually be ruled out unless oxidation is occuring in the chemical equation (hyrdrogen occuring with oxygen to react)
Synthesis reaction, also known as a Combination reaction, is when the reactants combine to form a single product.
Decompostion is when a single reactant is deconstructed to form multiple products, or the opposite of Synthesis.
With these definitions alone, since they are opposite types of reactions, the answer would be Synthesis and Decomposition reactions !
Hope this helps and if you need anymore clarification feel free to ask.
Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
An electric circuit works well when all the connections are complete but if any of the connections in the circuit is loose or disconnected then it is possible that current will not flow from the circuit.
Therefore, when Jenna removed one of the clips on the battery then circuit becomes incomplete and as a result there will no flow of current.
Thus, we can conclude that the electrical energy would stop because the circuit is incomplete.
Answer:
Atomic number of this isotope = 77
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass number = 193
No of neutrons = 116
We need to find the atomic no of this isotope.
We know that,
Atomic mass = No of protons + No. of neutrons
Also, atomic no = no of protons
So,
Atomic mass = atomic no + No. of neutrons
⇒ Atomic no = Atomic mass - no of neutrons
Atomic no = 193 - 116
Atomic no = 77
Hence, 77 is the atomic no of the isotope.
