Answer:

925.66 J/K

Explanation:

Applying,

Q = CΔt............. Equation 1

Where Q = amount of heat, C = heat capacity of the calorimeter, Δt = rise in temperature.

make C the subject of the equation

C = Q/Δt.............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: Q = 3.86 kJ = 3860 J, Δt = 4.17K

Substitute into equation 2

C = 3860/4.17

C = 925.66 J/K

Calculate the molarity of each aqueous solution: (a) 25.5 ml of 6.25 m hcl diluted to 0.500 l with water (b) 8.25 ml of 2.00×10–
Gnoma [55]
1. Using the dilution equation;
M1V1=M2V2
M1 = 6.25 m, v1= 25.5 ml or 0.0255 liters
Therefore; (6.25 ×0.0255)= M (0.5)
                 M = 0.159375/0.5
 Therefore Molarity is 0.31875 M Hcl

2. From the same equation 
 M1v1=m2v2
m1 = 0.02 m, v1=8.25 ml or 0.00825 l, while v2= 0.012 l
Thus, 0.02 ×0.00825 = M (0.012)
          M = 0.000165/0.012
              = 0.01375 m
Thus molarity is 0.01375 M KI

Which term describes the degree to which an element attracts electrons? which term describes the degree to which an element attr
prohojiy [21]
Electronegativity.
Electronegativity can be defined as the measure of affinity of the element towards electrons . Higher the affinity towards electrons higher the electronegativity.
Eg : Fluorine has a high electronegativity. This is because it has 7 valence electrons, to gain a noble gas configuration / complete outer shell it needs to gain one electron. Hence the positive nuclear charge of the nucleus will attract an electron so it can become a complete outer shell , therefore F is very reactive.
Higher the attraction of the nucleus to electrons , higher its affinity therefore higher electronegativity.

Electron configuration for Bohr model for sodium is
MrMuchimi

Answer: The p orbital can hold up to six electrons. We'll put six in the 2p orbital and then put the remaining electron in the 3s. Therefore the sodium electron configuration will be 1s22s22p63s1.

Refer to the experiment below:
saul85 [17]

Answer:

I think you are correct with your answer.

Explanation:

But I don't think that the explanation is correct because I think that it is the formation of both baking soda and water that makes it work...Vinegar doesn't make gas bubbles maybe because it hasn't reacted or maybe because it is not the right ingredient for the solution you are looking for. Thank you for the question.....Am not sure I really helped in your question but thank you..

How can NASA scientists use Newton's third law of motion to plan for a space vehicle landing on a meteor?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

NASA uses rockets to launch astronauts and supplies to the International Space Station. Launching a rocket relies on Newton's Third Law of Motion. A rocket engine produces thrust through action and reaction. The engine produces hot exhaust gases which flow out of the back of the engine.
