Answer:

I would use calorimetric to determine the specific heat and I would measure the mass of a sample

Explanation:

I would use calorimetry to determine the specific heat.

I would measure the mass of a sample of the substance.

I would heat the substance to a known temperature.

I would place the heated substance into a coffee-cup calorimeter containing a known mass of water with a known initial temperature.

I would wait for the temperature to equilibrate, then calculate temperature change.

I would use the temperature change of water to determine the amount of energy absorbed.

I would use the amount of energy lost by substance, mass, and temperature change to calculate specific heat.

What is the observation of heating copper carbonate???.?

damaskus [11]

Answer:

1)This type of reaction is called thermal decomposition . Copper carbonate is green and copper oxide is black. You can see a colour change from green to black during the reaction. The carbon dioxide produced can be detected using limewater, which turns milky. 2) The extremely low pressure of the partial vacuum inside the can made it possible for the pressure of the air outside the can to crush it. A can is crushed when the pressure outside is greater than the pressure inside, and the pressure difference is greater than the can is able to withstand.

3. The doctor notices that Janet has long fingernails, and comments that fingernails grow at a rate (or

Viktor [21]

Answer:

7.93 × 10⁻¹³ km/s

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Rate of growth of the fingernails (r): 2.50 cm/year

Step 2: Convert "r" from cm/year to km/year

We will use the following conversion factors.

1 m = 100 cm

1 km = 1000 m

$\frac{2.50cm}{year} \times \frac{1m}{100cm} \times \frac{1km}{1000m} = 2.50 \times 10^{-5} km/year$

Step 3: Convert "r" from km/year to km/s

We will use the following conversion factors.

1 year = 365 day

1 day = 24 h

1 h = 60 min

1 min = 60 s

$\frac{2.50 \times 10^{-5} km}{year} \times \frac{1year}{365day} \times \frac{1day}{24h} \times \frac{1h}{60min} \times \frac{1min}{60s} = 7.93 \times 10^{-13} km/s$

2.50 cm/year is equal to 7.93 × 10⁻¹³ kilometers/second.

The best option is a. but it is not complete!

Both liquids have different densities, it's true. But they are immiscible liquids and they don't form a solution.
