<u>Answer:</u>

<em>49822 joules of heat can be transferred to ankle from heat bag. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

We know that average body temperature should be <em>37 degree centigrade </em>

Hot water bag has 715 grams of water present in it. Specific heat of 1 gram of water is 4.18 joules per gram per degree centigrade. 715 grams will have 715 \times 4.18= 2988.7 j

The degree of water that is given is 60° hence specific heat becomes179322 \ j

<em>Specific heat of body at 37° centigrade will be = 129500 \ j</em>

<em>The amount of heat that can be transferred from hot bag will be 179322 - 129500 = 49822 \ j</em>

What is the change in heat energy when 132g of copper at 32.2°C is raised to 45.0oC? The specific heat of copper is 0.385 J/g °C
Rudik [331]
Heat energy can be calculated by using the specific heat of a substance multiplying it to the mass of the sample and the change in temperature. It is expressed as: 
<span>
Energy = mCΔT
</span><span>Energy = 132 (0.385) (45 - 32.2)
</span><span>Energy = 650.50 J</span>

What information is needed to determine a molecular formula
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Empirical formulas can be determined from the percent composition of a compound. In order to determine its molecular formula, it is necessary to know the molar mass of the compound. Chemists use an instrument called a mass spectrometer to determine the molar mass of compounds.

How many moles of sulfur will be needed to oxidize 3 moles of zinc to zinc sulfide
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer : The number of moles of sulfur needed to oxidize will be, 3 moles

Solution : Given,

Moles of zinc = 3 moles

The balanced reaction will be,

Zn^{2+}+S^{2-}\rightarrow ZnS

By the stoichiometry, 1 mole of Zn^{2+} ion react with the 1 mole of S^{2-} to give 1 mole of zinc sulfide.

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of zinc react with 1 mole of sulfur

So, 3 moles if zinc react with 3 moles of sulfur

Hence, the number of moles of sulfur needed to oxidize will be, 3 moles
