if .709 j of heat is added to water and cause the temperature to go up by .036 degrees C what mass of water is present
liberstina [14]

Answer:

0.00471 grams H₂O

Explanation:

To determine the mass, you need to use the following equation:

Q = mcΔT

In this equation,

-----> Q = energy/heat (J)

-----> m = mass (g)

-----> c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)

-----> ΔT = temperature change (°C)

The specific heat capacity of water is 4182 J/g°C. You can plug the given values into the equation and simplify to isolate "c".

Q = 0.709 J                            c = 4182 J/g°C

m = ? g                                   ΔT = 0.036 °C

Q = mcΔT                                                    <----- Equation

0.709 J = m(4182 J/g°C)(0.036 °C)            <----- Insert values

0.709 J = m(150.552)                                 <----- Multiply 4182 and 0.036

0.00471 = m                                              <----- Divide both sides by 150.552

Reptile [31]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Chris the Chemist was working in the lab, and he wanted to see what would happen if he put copper chloride into a Bunsen burner flame. As soon as he put it in the flame, it began to emit a green color. Which of these BEST describes this outcome?

A) The heat split the nucleus and created a new element.

B) As the copper chloride was heated, electrons were turned into neutrons.

C) As the electrons moved to a higher energy level, a photon of light is emitted.

D) When excited electrons return back to the ground state, a photon of light is emitted.

Answer:

D) When excited electrons return back to the ground state, a photon of light is emitted.

Explanation:

According to Bohr's model of the atom, electrons may absorb energy and move up to higher energy levels.

These electrons quickly return to ground state from such higher energy excited states thereby emitting the excess energy absorbed during excitation.

If the higher energy level is E2 and the ground state is E1 then the energy of the photon emitted when the electron descends from energy level E2 to E1 is;

ΔE = E2 - E1

This photon emitted accounts for the green colour of the copper salt observed when it was heated.

graduated cylinder is filled with water to a volume of 6.2 ML. an irregular shaped plastic object weighing 1.2 g is placed in th
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

A. Density of object = 0.86 g/mL

B. The object will float in the water.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Volume of water = 6.2 mL

Mass (m) of object = 1.2 g

Volume of water + Object = 7.59 mL

Density of object =?

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Next, we shall determine the volume of the object. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume of water = 6.2 mL

Volume of water + Object = 7.59 mL

Volume of object =?

Volume of object = (Volume of water + Object) – (Volume of water)

Volume of object = 7.59 – 6.2

Volume of object = 1.39 mL

Therefore, the volume of the object is 1.39 mL

A. Determination of the density of the object.

Mass (m) of object = 1.2 g

Volume (V) of object = 1.39 mL

Density (D) of object =?

Density = mass /volume

Density = 1.2/1.39

Density of object = 0.86 g/mL

B. Determination of whether the object will float or sink.

Density of object = 0.86 g/mL

Density of water = 1 g/mL

From the above, we can see that the density of water is greater than that of the object. This implies that the object is lighter than water. Therefore, the object will float in the water.

How many MOLECULES are in 50.0 grams of lithium phosphate?
Ray Of Light [21]
Answer: 2.60 x 10^23 molecules


50.0 grams x (1 mol/115.79 grams) = 0.431816219 moles

0.431816219 mol x (6.02 x 10^23 molecules/1 mol) = 2.599533638 x 10^23 molecules (final answer is rounded)
