Answer : The specific heat of the metal is, 0.451J/g^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of metal = ?

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of metal = 50.0 g

m_2 = mass of water  = 125 g

T_f = final temperature of mixture = 29.3^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of metal = 115.0^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 25.6^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

(50.0g)\times c_1\times (29.3-115.0)^oC=-[(125g)\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (29.3-25.6)^oC]

c_1=0.451J/g^oC

Therefore, the specific heat of the metal is, 0.451J/g^oC

What volume (mL) of 0.135 M NaOH is required to neutralize 13.7 mL of 0.129 M HCl? a: 0.24 b: 13.1 c: 0.076 d: 6.55 e: 14.3
Len [333]

Answer:

The volume (mL) of 0.135 M NaOH that is required to neutralize 13.7 mL of 0.129 M HCl is 13.1 mL (option b).

Explanation:

The reaction between an acid and a base is called neutralization, forming a salt and water.

Salt is an ionic compound made up of an anion (positively charged ion) from the base and a cation (negatively charged ion) from the acid.

When an acid is neutralized, the amount of base added must equal the amount of acid initially present. This base quantity is said to be the equivalent quantity. In other words, at the equivalence point the stoichiometry of the reaction is exactly fulfilled (there are no limiting or excess reagents), therefore the numbers of moles of both will be in stoichiometric relationship. So:

V acid *M acid = V base *M base

where V represents the volume of solution and M the molar concentration of said solution.

In this case:

  • V acid= 13.7 mL= 0.0137 L (being 1,000 mL= 1 L)
  • M acid= 0.129 M
  • V base= ?
  • M base= 0.135 M

Replacing:

0.0137 L* 0.129 M= V base* 0.135 M

Solving:

V base=\frac{0.0137 L*0.129 M}{0.135 M}

V base=0.0131 L = 13.1 mL

How to prepare super saturated solution of copper sulphate ? Explain the experiment
expeople1 [14]

Explanation:

Monitor the temperature of the water with the thermometer. Stop heating the water once it nears the boiling point of 100 degrees Celsius. Add copper(II) sulfate and stir until the heated solution is saturated. When the solution is saturated, copper(II) sulfate will not dissolve anymore

The rows of the periodic table are called groups because similar elements reside next to each other on the modern periodic table
forsale [732]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups or families because of their similar chemical behavior. All the members of a family of elements have the same number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties. The horizontal rows on the periodic table are called periods.
