What is the likely impact of water's high specific heat on life on Earth? (3 points)

Chemistry
1 answer:
statuscvo [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Marine life is least affected by the temperature fluctuations of the atmosphere.

Explanation:

The high specific heat capacity of water means that it takes much more energy to raise the temperatures of water by one (1) degree than land. This means that on a hot sunny day, land temperatures would increase dramatically while ocean temperatures would only rise slightly. Conversely,  at night, the land cools rapidly while oceans cool slowly hence the temperatures drop slightly.

At a certain temperature this reaction follows first-order kinetics with a rate constant of 2.01 s^−1
ddd [48]

Answer:

0.80 seconds (2 significant figures)

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

CICH2CH2Cl (g) --> CH2CHCI (g) + HCl(g)

Rate constant (k) = 2.01 s^-1

From the units of the rate constant, this is a first order reaction.

Initial Concentration = 1.34 M

t = ?

Final concentration = 20% of 1.34 = 0.268 M

The integrated rate law for a first order reaction is given as;

ln[A] = ln[A]o - kt

ln(0.268) = ln(1.34) - 2.01(t)

-2.01(t) = - 1.6094

t = 0.8007 ≈ 0.80 seconds (2 significant figures)

How many grams are there in 1.1 x 1027 molecules of water (H2O)?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

C) 3.3 x 104 grams

Explanation:

1 mole of water contains 6.02 × 10^23 atoms

1.1 × 10^27 atoms will contain;

1.1 × 10^27 ÷ 6.02 × 10^23

= 0.1827 × 10^( 27 - 23)

= 0.1827 × 10^(4)

= 1.827 × 10³ moles of water.

To convert mole to mass in grams, we use the formula;

mole (n) = mass (m) ÷ molar mass (MM)

Molar mas of water (H2O) = 1(2) of H + 16 of O = 18g/mol

mole = mass/molar mass

1.827 × 10³ = mass / 18

mass = 1.827 × 10³ × 18

mass = 32.886 × 10³

mass = 3.286 × 10⁴

mass = 3.3 × 10⁴ grams

A 0.24g sample of compound of oxygen and boron was found by analysis to contain 0.144g of Oxygen.calculate the percentage compos
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Mass of compound = 0.24 g and, mass of boron = 0.096 g percentage of boron in the compound = mass of boron / mass of compound * 100 = 0.096/0.24 * 100 = 40% mass of oxygen = 0.144 g again, mass of compound = 0.24 g percentage of oxygen in compound = mass of oxygen/mass of of compound * 100 = 0.144/0.24 * 100 = 60%
