Yes, when molten candle wax solidifies it is a chemical reaction

<u>Explanation:</u>

Basically Wax is crystalline so once the candle light melts it freezes taking back the solid state to the room temperature.

When the room temperature is below the freezing point, the liquid candle wax, turns into solid state again, therefore this process is called solidification. The process of freezing or solidification is a process when an object turns liquid and freezes back to solid state.

Indeed, Yes, when molten candle wax solidifies it is a chemical reaction

A 40.2 g sample of a metal heated to 99.3°C is placed into a calorimeter containing 120 g of water at 21.8°C. The final temper
aliina [53]

Answer:

B) Iron (c=0.45 J/g°C)

Explanation:

Given that:-

Heat gain by water = Heat lost by metal

Thus,  

m_{water}\times C_{water}\times (T_f-T_i)=-m_{metal}\times C_{metal}\times (T_f-T_i)

Where, negative sign signifies heat loss

Or,  

m_{water}\times C_{water}\times (T_f-T_i)=m_{metal}\times C_{metal}\times (T_i-T_f)

For water:

Mass = 120 g

Initial temperature = 21.8 °C

Final temperature = 24.5 °C

Specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

For metal:

Mass = 40.2 g

Initial temperature = 99.3 °C

Final temperature = 24.5 °C

Specific heat of metal = ?

So,  

120\times 4.184\times (24.5-21.8)=40.2\times C_{metal}\times (99.3-24.5)

40.2C_{metal}\left(99.3-24.5\right)=120\times \:2.7\times \:4.184

40.2C_{metal}\left(99.3-24.5\right)=1355.616

C_{metal}=0.45\ J/g^0C

<u>This value corresponds to iron. Thus answer is B.</u>

What is the purpose of the periodic table?
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

the periodic table is important because it is organized to provide a alot of information about elements and how they relate to one another in one easy-to-use reference. The table can be used to predict the properties of elements, even those that have not yet been discovered.
