Answer:

The temperature increase = 23.15 °C.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of silver = 27.9 g

Heat added = 155 j

How many degree temperature increase = ?

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Specific heat capacity of silver is = 0.240 j/g.°C

Now we will put the values in formula.

155 j = 27.9 g × 0.240 j/g.°C  × ΔT

155 j = 6.696  j/°C  × ΔT

ΔT  = 155 j /6.696  j/°C

ΔT  = 23.15 °C

sashaice [31]
Bears are omnivores (and scavengers), meaning they eat both plants and animals.
it can be both a primary consumer (if it eats plants) and secondary & tertiary consumers (if it eats a plant-eating animal). so it depends on what it eats.

If we start with 8000 atoms of radium-226 how much would remain after 3200 years?
olya-2409 [2.1K]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

2000 atoms

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given the following;

Initial number of atoms of radium-226 as 8000 atoms

Time taken for the decay 3200 years

We are required to determine the number of atoms that will remain after 3200 years.

We need to know the half life of Radium

  • Half life is the time taken by a radio active material to decay by half of its initial amount.
  • Half life of Radium-226 is 1600 years
  • Therefore, using the formula;

Remaining amount = Original amount × 0.5^n

where n is the number of half lives

n = 3200 years ÷ 1600 years

 = 2

Therefore;

Remaining amount = 8000 atoms × 0.5^2

                                = 8000 × 0.25

                                 = 2000 atoms

Thus, the number of radium-226 that will remain after 3200 years is 2000 atoms.
