Answer:

silicon-oxygen tetrahedron is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The main building block of a silicate mineral is silicon-oxygen tetrahedron. Silicon-oxygen tetrahedron belongs to the anionic group and the silicon atom is surrounded by four oxygen atom, arranged to determine the edges of a tetrahedron.

This silicate ion consists of one silicon atom, placed in the middle of a tetrahedron and surrounded by four oxygen atom, placed at vertices of a tetrahedron.

Calculate the energy required to heat of ethanol from to . Assume the specific heat capacity of ethanol under these conditions i
Marianna [84]

Answer:

17 kJ

Explanation:

Calculation for the Calculate the energy required to heat 0.60kg of ethanol from 2.2°C to 13.7°C.

Using this formula

q = mC∆T

Where,

q represent Energy

m represent Mass of substance=0.60kg=600g

C represent Specific heat capacity=2.44J·g−1K−1.

∆T represent change in Temperature=2.2°C to 13.7°C.

Let plug in the formula

q=(0.60 kg x 1000 g/kg)(2.44 J/gº)(13.7°C-2.2°C)

q = (600g)(2.44 J/gº)(11.5º)

q=16.836 kJ

q= 17 kJ (Approximately)

Therefore the energy required to heat 0.60kg of ethanol from 2.2°C to 13.7°C will be 17 kJ
