The SI unit of specific heat is J per gram per degree Celsius. Thus it follows that specific heat could be calculated in this way:

Specific Heat = Energy / (mass x change in temperature)

Thus,

Specific Heat = 3.912 cal / (9.84 oz x (191.2 ˚F – 73.2 ˚F))

Specific Heat = 3.369 x 10^-3 cal/oz-˚F

What is the molar mass of an element?
Vesnalui [34]

The answer is: the mass of 6.02 x 1023 representative particles of the element.

The base SI unit for molar mass is kg/mol, but chemist more use g/mol (gram per mole).

For example, molar mas of ammonia is 17.031 g/mol.

M(NH₃) = Ar(N) + 3 · Ar(H) · g/mol.

M(NH₃) = 14.007 + 3 · 1.008 · g/mol.

M(NH₃) = 17.031 g/mol.

The molar mass (M) is the mass of a given substance (in this example ammonia) divided by the amount of substance.

Solve the quadratic equation 2x^2+13x=15 by method of completing the square<br>​
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

x = 1, -7.5

Explanation:

2x² + 13x = 15

Divide the left side of the equation by 2

2(x² + 6.5x) = 15

Divide 6.5 by 2 and square the quotient

6.5/2 = 3.25

3.25² = 10.5625

Add 10.5625 to the left side

2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 15

Since you have a 2 outside the parentheses, you will be adding 10.5625•2 to the right side.

10.5625 • 2 = 21.125

2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 36.125

To factor (x² + 6.5x + 10.5625), add b/2 to x

b/2 = 6.5/2 = 3.25

2(x + 3.25)² = 36.125

Divide by 2

(x + 3.25)² = 18.0625

Square root.

(x + 3.25) = √18.0625

x + 3.25 = ±4.25

Subtract 3.25.

x = 4.25 - 3.25 = 1

x = -4.25 - 3.25 = -7.5

x = 1, -7.5

Which best describes the transfer of heat energy through conduction? A. Heat energy is transferred from molecule to molecule by
TiliK225 [7]
It should be option (A) because conduction is the transfer of heat energy from one place to another by vibrations/motion of the molecules. I hoped I helped.

Which statement describes how chemical formula such as H20 represent compounds check all that apply
Allisa [31]
<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • They show the elements of make up a compound
  • They show the types of atoms that make up a molecule
  • They show the number of each type of atom in a molecule
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

To answer this question we need to know what is a compound.

  • A compound is a substance that is made by two or more atoms of different elements that are chemically combined.
  • A chemical formula of a compound is a formula that shows the elements that make up a compound and also the types of atoms that make up the molecule.
  • Additionally, the chemical formula shows the number of each type of atom in a molecule.
  • In this case, the chemical formula of a molecule of H₂O shows that it is made up of one hydrogen atom and two oxygen atoms.
