Answer:

T = 20.84°C

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy:

Heat Lost by Copper Block = Heat Gained by Aluminum Calorimeter + Heat Gained by Water

m_cC_c\Delta T_c = m_wC_w\Delta T_w + m_aC_a\Delta T_a

where,

m_c = mass of copper = 227 g

m_w = mass of water = 844 g

m_a = mass of aluminum = 155 g

C_c = specific heat capacity of calorimeter = 385 J/kg.°C

C_w = specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg.°C

C_a = specific heat capacity of aluminum = 890 J/kg.°C

\Delta T_c = change in temperature of copper = 283°C - T

\Delta T_w = change in temperature of water = T - 14.6°C

\Delta T_a = change in temperature of aluminum = T - 14.6°C

T = equilibrium temperature = ?

Therefore,

(227\ g)(385\ J/kg.^oC)(283^oC-T)=(844\ g)(4200\ J/kg.^oC)(T-14.6^oC)+(155\ g)(890\ J/kg.^oC)(T-14.6^oC)\\\\24732785\ J - (87395\ J/^oC) T = (3544800\ J/^oC) T - 51754080\ J+ (137950\ J/^oC) T-2014070\ J\\\\24732785\ J +51754080\ J+2014070\ J = (3544800\ J/^oC) T+(137950\ J/^oC+(87395\ J/^oC) T\\\\78560935\ J = (3770145\ J/^oC) T\\\\T = \frac{78560935\ J}{3770145\ J/^oC}

<u>T = 20.84°C</u>

Why aren’t hydrogen fuel cell cars currently available to the public?
olga55 [171]
For one thing, hydrogen gas or fuel is really expensive compared to present diesel and gasoline. There's no point in actually investing in them since economy will not improve otherwise. Gasoline stations will also have to adjust to how tricky hydrogen gas will be to support and store with ease. It's dangerous also to the driver, passengers and our environment.

What do the subscript in the formula for ethane repersent
Karolina [17]
The formula for ethane is C2H6. (the 2 and 6 are supposed to be subscripts) they show the number of atoms per element. So there are two carbon atoms and six hydrogen atoms in ethane. The subscript in a chemical formula represents the amount of that atom in that compound's formula. <span>In chemistry, no subscript indicates 1 of that particular atom. HCl contains 1 atom of hydrogen and 1 atom of chlorine, whereas H20 contains 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen.It should be noted, however that this does not necessarily hold true for empiracle formulas, since these have been reduced to the simplest whole number ratio and do not necessarily reflect the number of each element present in an actual molecule. 

I hope this helps you! Good luck :)</span>
