ahrayia [7]3 years ago

A plateau is a flat, elevated landform that rises sharply above the surrounding area on at least one side. Plateaus occur on every continent and take up a third of the Earths land. They are one of the four major landforms, along with mountains, plains, and hills. Many plateaus form as magma deep inside the Earth pushes toward the surface but fails to break through the crust. Instead, the magma lifts up the large, flat, impenetrable rock above it.

What mass of water will change its temperature by 3.0 0C when 525 J of heat is added to it? The specific heat of water is 4.184
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Mass of water = 41.8 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of water = ?

Change in temperature = 3.0 °C

Specific heat capacity = 4.184 j/g.°C

Heat absorbed = 525 j

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT = 3.0°C

Now we will put the values in formula.

525 J = m × 4.184 j/g.°C  × 3.0°C

525 J = m × 12.552 j/g

m =  525 J/ 12.552 j/g

m = 41.8 g

Record your findings about sound and light waves for each of the following.
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Sound waves travelling through the air: Sound waves travelling through air are just like longitudinal waves lacking compressions and rarefactions. The speed of sound waves in air is approximately 332 metres per second.

Light waves travelling through air: Light waves travel in air at a much faster rate than sound waves. Light waves can travel with a speed of 300 000 kilometres per second through air.

Sound waves traveling through metal: Sound waves travel about 17 times faster in metal as compared to air. The sound waves travel with an approximate speed of 5,960 meters per second in metals.

Light waves travelling through metal: The speed of light waves in a metal medium is usually at a net speed which is less than 3.00 x 108 m/s.

Light travels faster than sound waves because light waves are not pressure waves like the sound waves. They also do not require a medium as the sound waves.

Iron displaces copper from a solution of a copper salt.The reaction is deemed as a redox reaction. Give reason.
mel-nik [20]
When the iron is not bonded to anything the oxidation number is 0 but when it is bonded to a nonmetal it will be positive. All reactions in which the oxidation number changes are considered redox.

Name two metals which will not liberate hydrogen from<br>dilute tetraoxosulphate(vi) acid.​
Cerrena [4.2K]
Copper (Cu) and silver (Ag) would not liberate hydrogen because they are less reactive than hydrogen since their standard reduction potential is higher.
