<span>Africa was more south and west and South America was more south and east of their current positions. I would say this would be because because South America and Africa used to be together in Gondwanaland millions of years ago and then apparently drifted apart as Wegener thought and then with the advent of plate tectonics it became apparent that the mid-Atlantic ridge runs between them and due to spreading along it Africa and S America got separated.</span>
Answer:
THE SPECIFIC HEAT OF THE ALLOY IS 0.9765 J/g K
Explanation:
Mass of alloy = 33 g
Initial temperature of alloy = 93°C
Mass of water = 50 g
Initail temp. of water = 22 °C
Heat capacity of calorimeter = 9.20 J/K
Final temp. = 31.10 °C
specific heat of alloy = unknown
specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g K
Heat = mass * specific heat * change in temperature = m c ΔT
Heat = heat capcity * chage in temperature = Δ H * ΔT
In calorimetry;
Heat lost by the alloy = Heat gained by water + Heat of the calorimeter
mc ΔT = mcΔT + Heat capacity * ΔT
33 * C * ( 93 - 31.10) = 50 * 4.2 * ( 31.10 -22) + 9.20 * ( 31.10 -22)
33 * C * 61.9 = 50 * 4.2 * 9.1 + 9.20 * 9.1
2042.7 C = 1911 + 83,72
C = 1911 + 83.72 / 2042.7
C = 1994.72 /2042.7
C =0.9765 J/g K
The specific heat of the alloy is 0.9765 J/ g K
