Answer : The metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is
).
Explanation :
In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.


where,
= specific heat of unknown metal = ?
= specific heat of water = 
= mass of unknown metal = 150 g
= mass of water = 200 g
= final temperature of water = 
= initial temperature of unknown metal = 
= initial temperature of water = 
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get


Form the value of specific heat of unknown metal, we conclude that the metal used in this was iron (Fe).
Therefore, the metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is
).
Answer:
A catalytic converter changes nitrogen dioxide to nitrogen gas and oxygen gas is a chemical change.
Explanation:
Hello.
In this case, since physical changes do not modify the molecular composition and structure of the material undergoing it whereas the chemical change does, for catalytic converters we should know they promote chemical reaction in which the composition is changed; for instance, for the given example, the following chemical reaction is the evidence:

As you can see, nitrogen and oxygen are no longer bonded but separated by themselves, therefore, this is a chemical change.
Best regards.
Ignore the point, the majority of the points are along the trend line.
