Answer:

31.9 °C  

Explanation:

The formula for the heat q absorbed by an object is

q = mCΔT where ΔT = (T₂ - T₁)

Data:

q = 12.35 cal

m = 19.75 g

C = 0.125 cal°C⁻¹g⁻¹

T₂ = 37.0 °C

Calculations

(a) Calculate ΔT

q = mCΔT

12.35 cal = 19.25 g × 0.125 cal°C⁻¹g⁻¹ × ΔT

12.35 = 2.406ΔT °C⁻¹  

ΔT  = 12.35/(2.406 °C⁻¹) = 5.13 °C

(b) Calculate T₂

ΔT = T₂ - T₁

T₁ = T₂ - ΔT = 37.0 °C - 5.13 °C = 31.9 °C

The original temperature was 31.9 °C.

The ionic radius for Na+ is 0.097 ηm and for Cl- is 0.181 ηm, the absolute value of the charge for each ion is 1.6x10-19 C, ε_o=
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

B = (2.953 × 10⁻⁹⁵) N.m⁹

Explanation:

At equilibrium, where the distance between the two ions (ro) is the sum of their ionic radii, the force between the two ions is zero.

That is,

Fa + Fr = 0

Fa = - Fr

Fa = (|q₁q₂|)/(4πε₀r²)

Fr = -B/(r^n) but n = 9

Fr = -B/r⁹

(|q₁q₂|)/(4πε₀r²) = (B/r⁹)

|q₁| = |q₂| = (1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹) C

(1/4πε₀) = k = (8.99 × 10⁹) Nm²/C²

r = 0.097 + 0.181 = 0.278 nm = (2.78 × 10⁻¹⁰) m

(k|q₁q₂|)/(r²) = (B/r⁹)

(k × |q₁q₂|) = (B/r⁷)

B = (k × |q₁q₂| × r⁷)

B = [8.99 × 10⁹ × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ × 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ × (2.78 × 10⁻¹⁰)⁷]

B = (2.953 × 10⁻⁹⁵) N.m⁹

Three elements are represented by the letters A, B, and C. the three elements have the same number of valence electrons. Element
AfilCa [17]
Answer:
A- beryllium
B- calcium
C- magnesium

Explanation
NOTE: all element in group 2 have 2 balance electrons

First let’s start with B- number of electrons= number of protons which is equal to the atomic number. therefore, the answer is calcium as it’s atomic number is 20

C- magnesium will have three energy levels considering it has 12 electrons (2,8,2).

A- beryllium is the lightest one in group 2 as it has the atomic mass of 9.0122.

What is the density of a gas at 242.5K and 0.7311atm. The molar mass of this gas is 70.90g/mol
Pie

Answer:

0.384g/l

Explanation: the density version of the ideal gas law is pm=drt

in which p= pressure, m=molar mass,d=, density, r= to a constant which is 0.08206, and t=temperature so just input the values

PM=DRT. so to find d the formula would be D=RT\PM

D=<u>0.08206*242.5</u>

        0.7311*70.90

D=0.384g/l
