Answer:- Specific heat of glass is c=0.84\frac{J}{g.^0C} .

Solution:- It asks to calculate the specific heat of glass when 13.4 J of heat is required to heat 8.0 g of water by 2.0 degree C.

The equation used for solving this type of problems is:

q=mc\Delta T

where, q is the heat energy, m is the mass, c is specific heat and \Delta T is change in temperature.

From given info:

q = 13.4 J

m = 8.0 g

\Delta T = 2.0 degree C

c = ?

Let's plug in the values in the equation and solve it for c:

13.4J=8.0g*c*2.0 ^0C

On rearrangement:

c=\frac{13.4J}{8.0g*2.0^0C}

c=0.84\frac{J}{g.^0C}

So, the specific heat of glass is c=0.84\frac{J}{g.^0C} .

An atom of gold has a mass of 3.271 x 10-22g. How many atoms of gold are in 5.00g of gold?
rosijanka [135]
To get the number of gold atoms, you have to divide the mass of the gold by the mass of the gold atom. It follows this simple equation  \frac{mass of gold}{mass of gold atom}. 

Let x be the number of gold atoms. Plug in the values to a calculator.

x = \frac{5.00g}{3.271 x 10-22g}
Both have the same units so the unit gram(g) can be cancelled. 
x then would be equal to 1.53x10^22. So there are 1.53x10^22 atoms of gold in 5 g of gold

Write 2 similarities and 2 differences between the digestive system of a Buffalo and humans
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

The cow digestive system is not at all like the human digestive system. The main difference between the human digestive system and the cow's animal digestive system is simple: Cows have a stomach that consists of four compartments, commonly referred to as four stomachs. Cows spend the better part of the day eating, swallowing and regurgitating their food, and chewing it again before final digestion. Because a cow's teeth mostly grind their food, cows use their tongues – which is why they are so long – to help them gather and grasp grass for pinching off between their incisors and dental pad at the front part of their mouths.

The molar absorptivity of Beta-carotene at 490 nm is 1.36 x 105 M-1cm-1. What is the concentration of a solution of Beta-caroten
finlep [7]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question will be Option E (1.0 x 10⁻³ M).

Explanation:

The given values are:

A\lambda =140

\varepsilon=1.36\times 10^5 \ M \ {cm^{-1}}

L = 1 \ cm

As we know,

⇒  A\lambda=\varepsilon CL

On putting the given values in the above formula, we get

⇒  140=1.36\times 10^5\times C\times 1

⇒  C=\frac{140}{1.36\times 10^5}

⇒  C=102.9\times 10^{-5} \ M

So that option E is the right answer.

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.31 l at 287 k and 1.10 atm. calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.45 l and the
balu736 [363]
Hello!

The pressure of the Ideal Gas when the volume is 1,45 L and the temperature is 298 K is 1,82 atm.

To solve this problem we need to apply the Ideal Gas Law for the initial conditions and the final ones, clearing the equation for the number of moles (n) and the ideal gas constant (R) which remain constant:

P_n*V_n=n*R*T_n \\ \\ n*R= \frac{P_n*V_n}{T_n}

Now we match n*R for the initial conditions (1) and the final ones (2), clearing the equation for P₂

\frac{P_1*V_1}{T_1}= \frac{P_2*V_2}{T_2} \\ \\ P_2= \frac{P_1*V_1*T_2}{T_1*V_2}= \frac{1,10 atm*2,31 L *298 K}{287K*1,45 L}=1,82 atm

Have a nice day!
