What is the specific heat capacity of an unknown metal if 75.00 g of the metal absorbs 418.6J of heat and the temperature rises

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is 0.223 $\frac{J}{g*C}$

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

There is a direct proportional relationship between heat and temperature. The constant of proportionality depends on the substance that constitutes the body as on its mass, and is the product of the specific heat by the mass of the body. So, the equation that allows calculating heat exchanges is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case, you know:

Q= 418.6 J
c= ?
m= 75 g
ΔT= 25 C

Replacing:

418.6 J= c* 75 g* 25 C

Solving:

$c=\frac{418.6 J}{75 g*25 C}$

c= 0.223 $\frac{J}{g*C}$

The specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is 0.223 $\frac{J}{g*C}$

Will sodium iodide react with bromine to produce sodium bromide and iodine? Why or why not?

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

The higher the period the higher the activity of an element, therefore, since iodine is in period 6 and bromine is in period 5, the described reaction is not possible due to the fact that bromine is less active

In the following reaction, what is the effect on the direction of the reaction if more SO3 is added to the reaction mixture?

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The equilibrium shifts to produce more reactants.

Explanation:

According to the Le- Chatelier principle,

At equilibrium state when stress is applied to the system, the system will behave in such a way to nullify the stress.

The equilibrium can be disturb,

By changing the concentration

By changing the volume

By changing the pressure

By changing the temperature

Consider the following chemical reaction.

Chemical reaction:

2SO₂ + O₂ ⇄ 2SO₃

In this reaction the equilibrium is disturb by increasing the concentration of Product.

When the concentration of product is increased the system will proceed in backward direction in order to regain the equilibrium. Because when product concentration is high it means reaction is not on equilibrium state. As the concentration of SO₃ increased the reaction proceed in backward direction to regain the equilibrium state and more reactant is formed.

Why is studying light and electrons important for chemistry and understanding the universe?

Brut [27]

Explanation :

The study of light and electrons are important for chemistry & universe.

As we know, everything is made up of particles even light & universe also. The particles are made of atoms and that atoms are made up of electrons, protons & neutrons.

An electron is one of the most important type of subatomic particles. Electrons combine with the proton to form atom. These electrons, protons & neutrons play a vital role in chemistry and universe.

The importance of an electron is that when two atoms react with each other or approach each other, their outermost shells come into contact first and these outermost shells electrons are involved in the chemical reaction.

Also important for chemical reactions, creating bonds, for electricity and the understanding of electrons has allowed for the better understanding of some forces which are in our universe such as electromagnetic force.

We know that the light is act as particle nature and it is a part of universe. As we know that chemists are only responsible for the chemical's study. Chemists cannot study the whole universe that is why they study light and the light is important because nothing would be able to survive.

The studying of light is important for the photoelectric effect, absorption, bio-molecules synthesis, vitamin D synthesis, vision, colors, drying & evaporation, sterilization, solar energy, spectroscopy, signal system and also for electron excitation.
