When equilibrium has been reached so, according to this formula we can get the specific heat of the unknown metal and from it, we can define the metal as each metal has its specific heat:
Mw*Cw*ΔTw = Mm*Cm*ΔTm
when
Mw → mass of water
Cw → specific heat of water
ΔTw → difference in temperature for water
Mm→ mass of metal
Cw→ specific heat of the metal
ΔTm → difference in temperature for metal
by substitution:
100g * 4.18 * (40-39.8) = 8.23 g * Cm * (50-40)
∴ Cm = 83.6 / 82.3 = 1.02 J/g.°C
when the Cm of the Magnesium ∴ the unknown metal is Mg
Answer: the answer is D im pretty sure
Explanation:
The major carbon sources (reservoirs that release more carbon than absorbed) are: deforestation and fossil fuels
The major carbon sinks (reservoirs that absorb more carbon than released) are:
soil, oceans and plants.
When scientists calculate the amount of carbon dioxide is returned to the atmosphere vs the released the amount of carbon, a large amount is unaccounted for and the total does not add up. This is why scientists believe there is an undiscovered carbon sink somewhere.
