Answer:

The granite block transferred <u>4080 joules</u> of energy, and the mass of the water is <u>35.84 grams</u>.

Explanation:

The equation needed to answer both parts of the question is:

Q = mcΔT

In this equation,

-----> Q = energy/heat (J)

-----> m = mass (g)

-----> c = specific heat (J/g°C)

-----> ΔT = change in temperature (°C)

<u>Part #1:</u>

First, you need to find the energy transferred from granite block using the previous equation. You have been given the mass, specific heat, and change in temperature.

Q = ? J                            c = 0.795 J/g°C

m = 126.1 g                     ΔT = 92.6 °C - 51.9 °C = 40.7 °C

Q = mcΔT

Q = (126.1 g)(0.795 J/g°C)(40.7 )

Q = 4080

<u>Part #2:</u>

Secondly, using the energy calculated in Part #1, you need to calculate the mass of the water. You have calculated the energy transferred, and have been given the specific heat and change in temperature.

Q = 4080 J                     c = 4.186 J/g°C

m = ? g                            ΔT = 51.9 °C - 24.7 °C = 27.2 °C

Q = mcΔT

4080 J = m(4.186 J/g°C)(27.2 °C)

4080 J = m(113.8592)

35.84 = m

. Explain why some desert animals excrete uric acid rather than ammonia.<br>(2 marks)​
avanturin [10]

Answer:

AFAIK

Explanation:

uric acid is much less toxic than ammonia, hence bigger concentrations of it are tolerated in the body. This means you can excrete it while excreting very little water - beneficial wherever water's not abundant.

There's a tradeoff though, uric acid requires more energy to synthesize than ammonia, so pretty much all fish, say, excrete ammonia rather than uric acid - it's no problem to dilute ammonia since there's no water shortage.

A 27.40 g sample of liquid mercury is initially at 158.30°C. If the sample is heated at constant pressure ( = 1 atm), kJ of ener
inna [77]

Answer:

energy required is 0.247kJ

Explanation:

The formula to use is Energy = nRdT;

Where n is number of mole

R is the molar gas constant

dT is the change in temperature

n = reacting mass of mercury / molar mass of mercury = 27.4/200.59 = 0.137

dT = final temperature - initial temperature = 376.20 - 158.30 = 217.90K

R = 8.314Jper mol per Kelvin

Energy = 0.137 x 8.314 x 217.90 = 247.12J

Energy in kJ= 247.12/1000= 0.247kJ

Which of the following is an extensive property of water?
Ber [7]
Extensive properties depend on the amount of substance. The volume of a sample is an extensive property: 1000 grams of water takes up more volume than 10 grams of water. Mass is also an extensive property.

What may cause some short term environmental changes how would organisms respond to these changes
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Refer to explanation

Explanation:

Weather is the main cause behind most short term environmental changes

For example, a period of heavy rain may lead to a pond overflowing, and flooding the nearby shrubbery

Animals in the area would adapt to this by trying to keep away from the flooded area until it dries out, once the rain ends
