A student claims that water's polarity is the reason it has a high specific heat.

Chemistry

Komok [63]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Perform research to see if other polar molecules have high specific heat

Explanation:

The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of the substance by 1°C.

In this question, the student is trying to establish a relationship between polarity and specific heat of substances. This claim can be tested by performing a research to see if other polar molecules have high specific heat.

If the research shows that a large number of other polar molecules  have high specific heat, then the claim is confirmed to be true.

A chemist prepares a solution of aluminum sulfate (Al2(SO4) by weighing out 116.0 g of aluminum sulfate into a 450. mL volumetri
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

0.0733 mol /dL

Explanation:

Mole -

Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,

Hence ,

n = w / m

n = moles ,

w = given mass ,

m = molecular mass .

From the information of the question ,

w = 116.0 g

As we know, molecular mass of aluminum sulfate ,

m = 342.15 g/mol

n = w / m  

n = 116.0 g /  342.15 g/mol = 0.33 mol

Molarity -

Molarity of a substance , is the number of moles present in a liter of solution .

M = n / V

M = molarity

V = volume of solution in liter ,

n = moles of solute ,

The unit is mol / L ,

Hence , from the question, the value of molarity is asked ,

From the information of the question ,

V = 450 mL ,

Since,

1 mL = 0.01 dL

As, the unit asked in the question is in dL,

V = 4.5 dL

n = 0.33 mol ( as calculated above )

Using the above formula ,

M = n / V  

M = 0.33 mol / 4.5 dL

M = 0.0733 mol /dL

M =

All methods of chromatography operate on the same basic principle that Select one: a. one component of the mixture will chemical
ANEK [815]

Answer:C

Explanation:

Chromatography separates compounds by taking advantage of their polarity. The stationary phase is generally very polar. The mobile phase can be pure hexane or various ratios of hexane with a polar eluent added. The more polar the compound, the more it interacts with the stationary phase and won’t move very far up the plate compared to the non-polar or less polar compounds that interact more with the non-polar hexane.

In the following reaction, how many grams of nitroglycerin c3h5(no3)3 will decompose to give 25 grams of co2?4c3h5(no3)3(l) 12co
Korolek [52]
The balanced reaction that describes the decomposition of nitroglycerin to produce carbon dioxide, nitrogen, water and oxygen is expressed: <span>4c3h5(no3)3(l) = 12co2(g)+ 6n2(g) +10h2o(g) + o2(g). Hence for every 4 moles of nitroglycerin used, 12 moles of carbon dioxide is produced. When 25 grams of CO2 is produced, we convert this to mass and multiply by 4/12 and multiply again with the molar mass of nitroglycerin. The answer is 42.99 grams nitroglycerin.</span>
