Answer:

c = 0.043 j/ g. °C

Explanation:

Given data:

Amount of sample = 500 g

Initial temperature = 55.0°C

Final temperature = 25.0°C

Heat required released = 640 J

Specific heat capacity of sample = ?

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 = 25°C - 55°C

ΔT = -30°C

by putting values,

-640 J = 500 g × c × -30 °C

c  = 640 J / 500 g× 30 °C

c = 640 J /15000 g. °C

c = 0.043 j/ g. °C

When a chemical reaction takes in energy it might feel cold hot boiling electric
padilas [110]

Answer: hot

Explanation:

Exothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is lesser than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is released in the form of heat and the system will be cold and surroundings will be hot.

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and the system will be hot and surroundings will be cold.

As heat is absorbed,  the reaction is endothermic and the system will feel hot.

Which wind blows cool air toward the sea at night ?
alexira [117]

Answer:

Land breeze is the wind that blows cool air from land towards sea at night.

Explanation:

Land breeze is a type of wind which is cool and blows towards sea. It occurs due to the difference in the temperature of water and land. At night, the lands cool quickly due to the removal of heat from it. So the air that is present on land is cool down and this air moves towards sea. So this breez is called land breeze because it moves from land.

Which of the following statements is not true regarding molecular orbital theory? O Bonding molecular orbitals have lower energy
pychu [463]

Answer:

Option c, Two atomic orbitals combine to form one molecular orbital

Explanation:

Molecular orbitals are formed by linear combination of atomic orbitals.

Some of the important facts of molecular orbital theories are as follows:

  • No. of the molecular orbitals formed are equal to the no. of atomic orbitals participated.
  • Half of the molecular orbitals are bonding molecular orbitals and half of the molecular orbitals are anti bonding molecular orbitals.
  • Anti bonding molecular orbitals have energy higher than participating atomic orbitals.
  • Bonding molecular orbitals have energy lower than participating atomic orbitals.
  • Molecular orbitals are that region in the molecule where electrons are most likely to found.

So, among given, option c which is 'atomic orbitals combine to form one molecular orbital' is incorrect.
