The initial temperature of the metal = 35 °C

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Heat can be formulated :

Q = m . c . ΔT

Q = heat, J

c = specific heat, J/g C

ΔT = temperature, °C

m = 20 g

c = 5 J/(g°C)

Q = 500 J

T₁ = 40 C

the initial temperature :

\tt \Delta t(T_2-T_1)=\dfrac{Q}{m.c}\\\\40-T_1=\dfrac{500}{20.5}\\\\40-T_1=5\\\\T_1=35^oC

What mass of magnesium chloride is needed to make 100.0 mL of a solution that is 0.500 M in chloride ion?
miss Akunina [59]
M = n/V

.5M = n/.100 L

n = .1 L * .5M

n= .05 mols of MgCl2

mass of MgCl2 = .05 mols of MgCl2 * 95.211 grams/ 1 mol of MgCl2 

mass of MgCl2 = 4.76 grams

4.76 grams of MgCl2 is needed to make 100 ml of a solution that is .500M, in chloride ion. Bolded = confused

A balloon, whose volume at 23°C is 535 mL, is heated to 46°C. Assuming the pressure and amount of gas remain constant, what is t
NikAS [45]
This problem requires a certain equation.  That equation is V1/T1=V2/T2, where V1 is your initial volume (535 mL in this case), T1 is your initial temperature in Kelvin(23 degrees C = 296 K), V2 is your final volume (unknown), and T2 is your final temperature (46 degrees C = 319 K). By plugging in these values, the equation looks like this: 535/296=V2/319.  Now multiply both sides of the equation by 319, and your final answer is V2= 576.6 mL

The molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 4.11 g of NaI in enough water to prepare 312 mL of solution is
Dimas [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 8.79 × 10⁻² M.

Explanation:

Based on the given information, the mass of NaI given is 4.11 grams. The molecular mass of NaI is 149.89 gram per mole. The moles of NaI can be determined by using the formula,

No. of moles of NaI = Weight of NaI/ Molecular mass

= 4.11 / 149.89

= 0.027420

The vol. of the solution given is 312 ml or 0.312 L

The molarity can be determined by using the formula,

Molarity = No. of moles/ Volume of the solution in L

= 0.027420/0.312

= 0.0879 M or 8.79 × 10⁻² M
