Electron affinity is the energy released when an electron is accepted by a neutral atom forming a negative ion. Chlorine has the higher electron affinity because it readily accepts an electron to become more stable. On the other hand, sodium have to give up an electron to complete its valence shell.
Some potential energy was converted into thermal energy due to friction. The acceleration due to gravity became smaller as the box slid down the ramp.
Answer:
The specific heat capacity of the object is 50 J/g°C ( option 4 is correct)
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Initial temperature = 10.0 °C
Final temperature = 25.0 °C
Energy required = 30000 J
Mass of the object = 40.0 grams
Step 2: Calculate the specific heat capacity of the object
Q = m* c * ΔT
⇒With Q = the heat required = 30000 J
⇒with m = the mass of the object = 40.0 grams
⇒with c = the specific heat capacity of the object = TO BE DETERMINED
⇒with ΔT = The change in temperature = T2 - T2 = 25.0 °C - 10.0°C = 15.0 °C
30000 J = 40.0 g * c * 15.0 °C
c = 30000 J / (40.0 g * 15.0 °C)
c = 50 J/g°C
The specific heat capacity of the object is 50 J/g°C ( option 4 is correct)
