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

What would indicate that a physical change takes place when cooper is drawn into wire
amid [387]

Answer:

When a copper is drawn into wire the only change that occurs is change in its shape and size no change will take place into its composition that is the wires are still possessing the properties of copper metal. Thus, a physical change takes place when copper is drawn into wire.

What is the bond order of li2−? express the bond order numerically?
jeka94
Atomic Number of Lithium is 3, so it has 3 electrons in its neutral state. Also, Li₂ will have 6 electrons. But the chemical formula we are given has a negative charge on it (i.e Li₂⁻) so there is an additional electron (RED) present on this compound. So, the total number of electrons are 7. The MOT diagram for this compound is shown below. According to diagram we are having 4 electrons in Bonding Molecular Orbitals (BMO) and 3 electrons in Anti-Bonding Molecular Orbitals (ABMO). Bond Order is calculated as,

              Bond Order  =  (# of e⁻s in BMO - # of e⁻s in ABMO) ÷ 2

              Bond Order  =  (4 - 3) ÷ 2

              Bond Order  =  1 ÷ 2
Or,
              Bond Order  =  1/2
Or,
              Bond Order  =  0.5

What are some signs of cyanide poisoning visible on a corpse?
lina2011 [118]
Hello!
I saw this question and instantly knew I could help. I recently took a course on toxic gasses and poisons. Here's what I know.

It can be swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through skin. It is generally released from its host compound by acids, such as the hydrochloric acid found in the stomach. The poison in the seeds is released only if the seeds are chewed.

Effects and symptoms:
Cyanide prevents the red blood cells from absorbing oxygen. It's called chemical asphyxia.
Smelling of a toxic dose of the gas can cause immediate unconsciousness, convulsions and death within one to fifteen minutes.
If swallowed a fatal dose can take up to twenty minutes or longer, esp. if swallowed on a full stomach.
If a near-lethal dose is absorbed through the skin, inhaled or swallowed the symptoms will include gasping for breath, dizziness, flushing, headache, nausea, vomiting, rapid pulse, and a drop in blood pressure causing fainting.
<span>With a lethal dose, convulsions with in four hours, except in the case of sodium nitroprusside, when death can be delayed as long as 12 hours after ingestion. </span>The victims blood may appear purple or cherry red, as in carbon monoxide poisoning, and the corpse may have pinker than normal skin.
<span>the famous bitter almond odor can be a clue and maybe noticeable at autopsy, but not everyone is capable of smelling it.

Hope this helped! :)</span>
