<h3>Answer:</h3>

2.5 kg

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept being tested: Quantity of heat

We are given the following;

  • Heat absorbed by a piece of copper,Q = 19,550 calories
  • Temperature change, ΔT= 85°C
  • Specific heat capacity of copper, c = 0.092 cal/g°C

We are required to determine the mass of the piece of copper;

  • We know that;

Q = m × c × ΔT

  • Rearranging the formula;

m = Q ÷ cΔT

   = 19,550 calories ÷ (0.092 cal/g°C × 85°C)

   = 2500 g

but; 1 kg = 1000 g

Thus, mass = 2.5 Kg

Hence, the mass of the copper piece is 2.5 kg

In a DNA sample, 15% of the bases are thymine (T). What percentage of the bases in this sample are cytosine (C)?
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

C) 35%

Explanation:

Thymine pairs with adenine. If thymine is 15% then so would adenine be 15%. That leaves the reaminder to be 70%. Cytosine pairs with guanine, thereby, they would each be 35%.

You have a glass of liquid and combine it with a mysterious solid and notice that over time the color changes. this questions ha
Juliette [100K]

1. This can be due to the dissolving of the solid in liquid and form a solution.

Dissolving is a physical property because dissolving doesn't form new substances and the chemical composition of the solid is not changed.

The color building up over the time can be due to the rate of dissolving of the solid and amount of particles have been dissolved.

Example:

  • Dissolving of CuSO₄ solid in water.
  • This develops a blue color.

2. This can be due to the chemical reaction between the solid and liquid.

Chemical reaction is a chemical property because from reacting substances new substances can be formed which the chemical formula is different from initial substances.

The color building up over the time can be due to the rate of the reaction and the amount of reactants.

Example:

  • The reaction between calcium metal with water.
  • The color of Ca(OH)₂ is white color.
  • Reaction is

       Ca(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + H₂(g)

How many moles of CO are there in 1.40 x 10^24 molecules.
viva [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Mole = no. Molecules/6.02×10^23

Mole = (1.40×10^24)/(6.02×10^23)

Mole = 2.33mole
