Answer: C. The number of atoms of each element is the same on each side of the equation.

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter shows that it is not possible for matter to either be created nor for it to be destroyed so the number of atoms of each element on the reactant side of the equation must equal the number of atoms in each element on the product side of the equation.

This is why the following equation is incomplete:

H₂ + O₂ ⇒ H₂O

The oxygen atoms are not the same on either side.

Equation will therefor have to be balanced which will make it:

2H₂ + O₂ ⇒ 2H₂O

Notice now that atoms are the same on both sides.

A sample of copper absorbs 4.31E+1 kJ of heat, resulting in a temperature rise of 6.71E+1 °C. Determine the mass (in kg) of the
olga2289 [7]

Answer: 1.67 kg

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

Q = Heat absorbed=4.31\times 10^1kJ = 43100J   (1kJ=1000J)

m= mass of substance = ?

c = specific heat capacity = 0.385J/g^0C

Change in temperature ,\Delta T=T_f-T_i=6.71\times 10^1^0C=67.1^0C

Putting in the values, we get:

43100J=m\times 0.385J/g^0C\times 67.1^0C

m=1670g=1.67kg   (1kg=1000g)

Thus the mass (in kg) of the copper sample is 1.67

Ber [7]
We have seasons on earth because of the way the earth is tilt on its axis. at a certain time in the year, the sun's rays reach certain parts of the globe more than others.

some places have 4 seasons because they are in the northern hemisphere, which is in the sweet spot of the sun's rays that give us each season. other places only have 1 or 2 because they are not in the northern hemisphere.
