A 62.6-gram piece of heated limestone is placed into 75.0 grams of water at 23.1°C. The limestone and the water come to a final

temperature of 51.9°C. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.186 joules/gram degree Celsius, and the specific heat capacity of limestone is 0.921 joules/gram degree Celsius. What was the initial temperature of the limestone? Express your answer to three significant figures.

Answer:

208.7°C was the initial temperature of the limestone.

Explanation:

Heat lost by limestone will be equal to heat gained by the water

-Q_1=Q_2

Mass of limestone = m_1=62.6 g

Specific heat capacity of limestone = c_1=0.921 J/g^oC

Initial temperature of the limestone = T_1=?

Final temperature = T_2=T =  51.9°C

Q_1=m_1c_1\times (T-T_1)

Mass of water= m_2=75.0 g

Specific heat capacity of water= c_2=4.186 J/g^oC

Initial temperature of the water = T_3=23.1^oC

Final temperature of water = T_2=T =  51.9°C

Q_2=m_2c_2\times (T-T_3)

-Q_1=Q_2

-(m_1c_1\times (T-T_1))=m_2c_2\times (T-T_3)

On substituting all values:

-(62.6 g\times 0.921 J/g^oC\times (51.9^oC-T_1))=75.0 g\times 4.186 J/g^oC\times (51.9^oC-23.1^oC)

T_1=208.7^oC

208.7°C was the initial temperature of the limestone.

A. Identify which sets of quantum numbers are valid for an electron. Each set is ordered (n,ℓ,mℓ,ms).
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

a. Values are - (1) 3,1,-1,1/2        (2) 2,1,-1,-1/2       (3) 3,0,0,1/2    (4) 4,3,3,-1/2

(5) 3,2,2,1/2

b. Order be- I > Sn > Xe

Explanation:

a.

Valid quantum numbers are -

'l' value should be less than 'n' value and 'ml' value should be '-l' to 'l'

'ml' value should not more than 'l' or 'n'.

Values are -

3,1,-1,1/2

2,1,-1,-1/2

3,0,0,1/2

4,3,3,-1/2

3,2,2,1/2

b.

Given that-

I [Kr]4d¹⁰5s²5p⁵

Sn [Kr]4d¹⁰5s²5p²

Xe [Kr]4d¹⁰5s²5p⁶

Order be-

I > Sn > Xe

Xe is least because it is completely filled outer shell (5s²5p⁶

The balloon has traveled 30 meters up from the bicyclist and since it's rising 5 meters per second, 2 seconds later it will travel 10 meters higher. 2 seconds later the bicyclist will travel 20 meters away.   so 10+20+30= 60 meters away from each other.
