Answer:

Explanation:

I say this because of this that I read. There was a study shown

"Our experiment was a success. We obtained data that answered our problem, “Which substance absorbs the most heat on a hot day? Sand, water, or sand with water?” The results showed that from the twenty-five trials: the cup of sand temperature ranged from 63-68°C, cup of water temperature ranged from 71-77°C, and the cup of sand with water temperature ranged from 66-71°C. Based on our data, our hypothesis was incorrect. We hypothesized that the sand would absorb the most heat since it is darker and less reflective than water; but from our data, water absorbed the most heat. In conclusion, sand absorbed the least amount of heat and water absorbed the most. Next time we want to cool down at the beach, we’ll know where to go!"

This was an experiment that was performed and this is the conclusion

Hope that helps

A calorimeter contains 22.0 mL of water at 14.0 ∘C . When 2.50 g of X (a substance with a molar mass of 82.0 g/mol ) is added, i

Alik [6]

Answer:

The enthalpy change in the the reaction is -47.014 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

$X(s)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow X(aq)$

Volume of water in calorimeter = 22.0 mL

Density of water = 1.00 g/mL

Mass of the water in calorimeter = m

$m=1.00 g/mL\times 22.0 mL=22 g$

Mass of substance X = 2.50 g

Mass of the solution = M = 2.50 g + 22 g = 24.50 g

Heat released during the reaction be Q

Change in temperature =ΔT = 28.0°C - 14.0°C = 14.0°C

Specific heat of the solution is equal to that of water :

c = 4.18J/(g°C)

$Q=Mc\times \Delta T$

$Q=24.50 g\times 4.18 J/g ^oC\times 14.0^oC=1,433.74 J=1.433 kJ$

Heat released during the reaction is equal to the heat absorbed by the water or solution.

Heat released during the reaction =-1.433 kJ

Moles of substance X= $\frac{2.50 g}{82.0 g/mol}=0.03048 mol$

The enthalpy change, ΔH, for this reaction per mole of X:

$\Delta H=\frac{-1.433 kJ}{0.03048 mol}=-47.014 kJ/mol$

Liquid A is known to have a lower surface tension and lower viscosity than Liquid B. Use these facts to predict the result of be

Korvikt [17]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Surface tension is defined as the attractive forces experienced by the surface molecules of a liquid by the molecules present beneath the surface layer of the liquid.

And, viscosity is defined as the ability of a liquid to resist its flow. When a substance has high viscosity then it is known as a viscous substance.

Since, it is given that viscosity of liquid B is more than liquid A. Therefore, liquid B has more resistive force on its surface as compared to liquid A. As a result, time taken by liquid B is more than time taken by liquid A.

Also, Surface tension = $\frac{Force}{Length}$

Surface tension of liquid B is more than liquid A. Therefore, $F_{B} > F_{A}$ .

Thus, we can conclude that tA will be less than tB.
