Answer:
THE SPECIFIC HEAT OF THE METAL IS 0.8983 J/g °C
Explanation:
In solving the problem, we have to understand that:
Heat lost by the metal = Heat gained by the water in the bomb calorimeter
First is to calculate the heat evolved from the reaction
Heat = mass * specific heat * change in temperature
Mass of water = 50 g
specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g °C
Change in temperature = 23 - 21 = 2 °C
So therefore,
Heat = 50 * 4.184 * 2
Heat = 418.4 J
Next is to solve for the specific heat of the metal;
Heat lost by the metal is the same as the heat gained by water
Heat = mass * specific heat of metal * change in temperature
Change in temperature = 39.4 °C - 23 °C = 16.4 °C
418.4 = 28.4 * C * 16.4
C = 418.4 / 28.4 * 16.4
C = 418.4 / 465.76
C = 0.8983 J/ g °C
The specific heat of the metal is hence 0.8983 J/g °C
Answer : The correct option is, (B) has fewer subatomic particles than an atom of iron (Fe)
.
Explanation :
The given element is chromium (Cr). The atomic number of chromium is 24.
As we know that the atomic number is either equal to the number of protons or number of electrons.
So, Atomic number = Number of protons = Number of electrons = 24
And we know that mass number is the sum of number of protons and number of neutrons.
Mass number of chromium = 52
Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons
52 = 28 + Number of neutrons
Number of neutrons = 28
And we know that the atomic number of iron (Fe) is 26.
Number of protons = Number of electrons = 26
Mass number of Fe = 56
Number of neutrons = 30
From the given options we conclude that the a neutral atom of chromium has fewer subatomic particles than an atom of iron (Fe).
Hence, the correct option is, (B) has fewer subatomic particles than an atom of iron (Fe)
