What is the definition for water displacement?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anna007 [38]3 years ago
8 0
Water displacement is a particular case of fluid displacement, which is simply the principle that any object placed in a fluid causes that fluid to no longer occupy that volume of space. The fluid must go somewhere, however, and so with liquids in containers this causes their overall height to rise.

29.5 g of mercury is heated from 32°C to 161°C, and absorbs 499.2 joules of heat in the process. Calculate the specific heat cap
Finger [1]

Answer:

c = 0.13 j/ g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of mercury = 29.5 g

Initial temperature = 32°C

Final temperature = 161°C

Heat absorbed = 499.2 j

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Q = m.c. ΔT

ΔT  = T2 - T1

ΔT  = 161°C - 32°C

ΔT  = 129 °C

Q = m.c. ΔT

c = Q / m. ΔT

c = 499.2 j / 29.5 g. 129 °C

c =  499.2 j / 3805.5 g. °C

c = 0.13 j/ g.°C

When the ph of an aqueous solution is changed from 1 to 2, the concentration of hydronium ions in the solution is.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

decreased by a factor of 10

Explanation:

pH is defined in such a way that;

pH= −log10(H)

Where H represents the concentration of Hydronium or Hydrogen ions

Given that pH is changed from 1 to 2,

By rearranging the above formula , we get 10−pH = H

  • if pH=1,H=10−1=0.1M
  • if pH=2,H=10−2=0.01M

Therefore,  0.1/0.01 = 10 and 0.1 > 0.01

Hence, the concentration of hydronium ions in the solution is decreased by a factor of 10

If the half-life of a sample of a radioactive substance is 30 seconds, how much would be left after 60 seconds? A. one-fourth B.
Basile [38]
m=m_{0}*(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{60}{30}}\\\\
m=m_{0}*(\frac{1}{2})^{2}\\\\
m=\frac{1}{4}m_{0}
