Given:

257J of heat

5500g of mercury

increase by 5.5 degrees Celsius

Required:

Specific heat of mercury

Solution:

H = mCpT

257J = (5500g of mercury) Cp (5.5 degrees Celsius)

Cp = 8.5 x 10^-3 Joules per gram per degree Celsius

How many moles of dinitrogen monoxide are present in 9.3 x 10^22 molecules of this compound?
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

<h2>0.15 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities.

From the question we have

n =  \frac{9.3 \times  {10}^{22} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 0.154485...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.15 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

What is the mass of six of these marbles? What is the volume? What is the<br> density?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

All right. So let's calculate the density of a glass marble. Remember that the formula for density is mass over volume. So if I know that the masses 18.5 g. And I know that the um volume is 6.45 cubic centimeters. I can go ahead and answer this to three significant figures. So it's going to be 2.87 grams per cubic centimeter. Okay, that's our density. Now, density is an intensive process. Okay. We're an intensive property. I really should say. It doesn't depend on how much you have. Mhm. If I have one marble, its density is going to be 2.87 g per cubic centimeter. If I have two marbles, the density will be the same because I'll double the mass and I'll also double the volume. So when I divide them I'll get the same number. Okay, that's what makes it an intensive property. No matter how many marbles I have, they'll have the same density. Mass though is not an intensive property. So if I have six marbles and I want to know what the massive six marbles is. Well, I know the mass of each marble is 18.5 g. So the mass of six marbles Is going to be 100 11 g. Because mass is an extensive property. It depends on how much you have. If I change the number of marbles, I'm going to change the mass. That's an extensive property. All right. So we've calculated the density. We've calculated the mass and then what happens to the density of one marble compared to six marbles as we mentioned before. Since densities and intensive property, the densities will be the same, no matter how may.
