Answer:
It travel's about 4,000 km through the Earth in 13 minutes.
Explanation:
Specific heat capacity can be calculated using the following equation: q = mc∆T In the equation q represents the amount of heat energy gained or lost (in joules ), m is the mass of the substance (in grams), c is the specific heat capacity of the substance (in J/g °C), and ∆T is the temperature change of the substance
Answer:
3.58J/g°C is the specific heat of the metal
Explanation:
The specific heat of a material is defined as the energy that 1g of the material absorbs and produce the increasing in temperature in 1°C. The equation is:
Q = S*ΔT*m
<em>Where Q is energy = 1362J</em>
<em>S is specific heat of the material</em>
<em>ΔT is change in temperature = 42°C - 17°C = 25°C</em>
<em>And m is the mass of the material = 15.2g</em>
Replacing:
S = Q / ΔT*m
S = 1362J / 25°C*15.2g
<h3>3.58J/g°C is the specific heat of the metal</h3>
To determine this, lets use the atomic mass for each element to determine the corresponding number of moles for a given mass of 1 g.
Mo: 95.94 g/mol
1 g/95.94 g/mol = 0.01042 moles Mo
Se: 78.96 g/mol
1 g/78.96 g/mol = 0.01266 moles Se
Na: 22.99 g/mol
1 g/22.99 g/mol = 0.0435 moles Na
Br: 79.9 g/mol
1 g/79.9 g/mol = 0.0125 moles Br
<em>Thus, the answer is Na.</em>
