Answer:

The mass of water m_{w} = 39.18 gm

Explanation:

Mass of iron m_{iron} = 32.5 gm

Initial temperature of iron T_{1} = 22.4°c = 295.4 K

Specific heat of iron  C_{iron} = 0.448 \frac{KJ}{kg K}

Mass of water = m_{w}

Specific heat of water  C_{w} = 4.2 \frac{KJ}{kg  K}

Initial temperature of water T_{2} = 336 K  

Final temperature after equilibrium T_{f} = 59.7°c = 332.7 K

When iron rod is submerged into water then

Heat lost by water  = Heat gain by iron rod

m_{w} C_{w} (T_{2} - T_{f} ) =  m_{iron} C_{iron} ( T_{f} - T_{1} )

Put all the values in above formula we get

m_{w} × 4.2 × ( 336 - 332.7 ) = 32.5 × 0.448 × ( 332.7 - 295.4 )

m_{w} = 39.18 gm

Therefore the mass of water m_{w} = 39.18 gm

The town of Natrium, West Virginia, derives its name from the sodium produced in the electrolysis of molten sodium chloride (NaC
Alona [7]

Explanation:

The reaction equation will be as follows.

           Na^{+} + e^{-} \rightarrow Na(s)

Hence, moles of Na = moles of electron used

Therefore, calculate the number of moles of sodium as follows.

       No. of moles = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

                             = \frac{4500 g}{23 g/mol}    (as 1 kg = 1000 g)

                             = 195.65 mol

As,     Q = n \times F       where F = Faraday's constant

              = 195.65 mol \times 96500 C

              = 1.88 \times 10^{7} mol C

Relation between electrical energy and Q is as follows.

               E = Q \times V

Hence, putting the given values into the above formula and then calculate the value of electricity as follows.

              E = Q \times V

                 = 1.88 \times 10^{7} \times 5

                 = 9.4 \times 10^{7} J

As 1 J = 2.77 \times 10^{-7} kWh

Hence,      \frac{9.4 \times 10^{7}}{2.77 \times 10^{-7}} kWh

                = 3.39 kWh

Thus, we can conclude that 3.39 kilowatt-hours of electricity is required in the given situation.

A certain atom has 11 electrons 8 neutrons and a charge of -1. What is it’s atomic mass
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

20 amu

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

Atomic mass = Number of protons + number of neutrons

Atomic number = Number of electrons or number of protons.

In given question it is stated that atom has 11 electrons and -1  charge it means this atom has 12 electrons in neutral state.

Thus it has 12 protons because number of electrons and protons are always equal.

Atomic mass of given atom:

Atomic mass = Number of protons + number of neutrons

Atomic mass = 12 + 8 = 20 amu

What is the mass percentage for copper ?
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

To find the mass percent composition of an element, divide the mass contribution of the element by the total molecular mass. This number must then be multiplied by 100% to be expressed as a percent.
