Answer:

The specific heat of the metal is 0,50 J/gºC

Explanation:

Assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings

(Q = m . C . ΔT)metal + (Q = m . C . ΔT)water = 0

Let's replace our values.

55g . C . (18,7ºC - 75ºC) + 100g . 4,184 J/g·°C . (18,7ºC - 15ºC) = 0

55g . C . -56,3 ºC + 418,4J/·°C . 3,7ºC = 0

-3096,5 gºC . C + 1548,08 J = 0

1548,08 J = 3096,5 gºC . C

1548,08 J / 3096,5 gºC  = C = 0,50 J/gºC

What is the molar mass, in grams, of a mole of an element equal to?
prohojiy [21]
Technically molar mass cannot be in grams, it is in grams per mole. and it refers to a specific number of molecules of a substance, therefore substances have different molar masses because the elements have different weights. for example having 10 water molecules would be a lot heavier than having 10 air molecules

Complete the electron-dot structure of s-allylcysteine, showing all lone-pair electrons.
erastova [34]
The structural formula of <span>s-allylcysteine is shown in the picture (top figure). To create its Lewis structure, draw all its bonds between elements. Each single bond contains two electrons. There is an octet rule that must be obeyed by most elements. Each element should be surrounded with 8 electrons. The hydrogen is exempted of this rule. So, there are 4 lone pairs for the S atom, 1 lone pair for the N atom, and 2 lone pairs each for the 2 O atoms.</span>
