Answer: The most likely identity of the substance is iron.

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T$

Q = Heat absorbed= $1.071\times 10^2$ Joules

m= mass of substance = 11.9 g

c = specific heat capacity = ?

Initial temperature of the water = $T_i$ = 25.0°C

Final temperature of the water = $T_f$ = 45.0°CChange in temperature , $\Delta T=T_f-T_i=(45-25)^0C=20^0C$

Putting in the values, we get:

$1.071\times 10^2=11.9\times c\times 20^0C$

$c=0.45J/g^0C$

The specific heat of 0.45 is for iron and thus the substance is iron.

2. A solution that contains a small amount of salt and a large amount of water is said to be a _______ solution.

koban [17]

2. A dilute solution means that the amount of solvent (water, for this particular case) is significantly larger than the solute (salt). Thus, the answer is D. 6. John Dalton's atomic theory states that matter is made up of tiny indestructible objects called matter. The theory also indicates that although same elements have the same atoms, each element have unique set atoms that deinfe them. From this, we can conclude that the wrong assumption is C. 9. Atoms, by default, are electrically neutral. When an atom loses or gains electron/s, then they become ionized atoms or commonly called as ions. Thus, ionized atoms imply unequal number of protons and electrons. This means the answer must be A. 11. Analgesics are commonly used to relieve pain. Thus, the answer is C. 14. Adding up the atomic mass of the individual atoms will give you the molar mass of a compound. Therefore, the answer is B.: 15. The pH scale provides us the alkalinity or acidity of a solution based on the value. A value between 0 to 6 indicates that the solution is acidic. 7 is considered neutral and a value between 7 and 14 indicates that the solution is basic. Thus, the answer is D. 19. An element has consistent properties and can no longer be further identified into having individual properties. Thus, the answer is A. 20. The valence of an element dependeds on the number of electrons on the outermost shell. Thus, it is equal to the number of charge negative or positive charges on the ion. Hence, we have A<span>. :</span>

A gas sample is confined within a chamber that has a movable piston. A small load is placed on the piston; and the system is all

timurjin [86]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Total weight of the piston, W = F = 70 N

Area of the piston, $a=5\times 10^{-4}\ m^2$

Let P is the pressure exerted on the piston by the gas. The force per unit area is called the pressure exerted pressure of the gas. Mathematically, it is given by :

$P=\dfrac{F}{A}$

$P=\dfrac{70\ N}{5\times 10^{-4}\ m^2}$

$P=1.4\times 10^5\ Pa$

We know that the atmospheric pressure is given by :

$P_o=1.013\times 10^5\ Pa$

So, the pressure is given by :

$p=P+P_o$

$p=1.4\times 10^5+1.013\times 10^5$

$p=2.41\times 10^5\ Pa$

Hence, this is the required solution.

posledela

Answer:

180.4 m

Explanation:

The package in relation to the point where it was released falls a certain distance that is calculated by applying the horizontal motion formulas , as the horizontal speed of the plane and the height above the ground are known, the time that It takes the package to reach its destination and then the horizontal distance (x) is calculated from where it was dropped, as follows:

$V_{ox}=v_x = 40 \ m/s$

h = 100 m

x =?

Height formula h:

$h=g \times \frac{t^2}{2}$

Time t is cleared:

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2 \times 100}{9.8}}$

t = 4.51 sec

Horizontal distance formula x:

$x=V_x \times t$

x = 40 m / sec x 4.51 sec

x = 180.4 m
