Answer:

904.014 j/kgk

Explanation:

Mass of metal = 45g

Temperature of metal = 85.6°

Mass of water = 150

Temperature of water = 24.6

Final temperature of system = 28.3

Heat lost by metal = Heat gained by water

m1 * c1 * dt = m2 * c2 * dt

Q = quantity of heat

Q = m*c*dt

dt = change in temperature

dt of water = 28.3 - 24.6 = 3.7

dt of metal = 85.6 - 28.3 = 57.3

Specific heat capacity of water, c = 4200

(45 * 10^-3) * c * 57.3 = (150 * 10^-3) * 4200 * 3.7

2.5785c1 = 2331

c1 = 2331 / 2.5785

= 904.01396

= 904.014 j/kgk

How many electrons in an atom can share the quantum numbers n = 4 and l = 3?
o-na [289]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{14}}

Explanation:

If l = 3, the electrons are in an f subshell.

The number of orbitals with a quantum number l is 2l + 1, so there

are 2×3 + 1 = 7 f orbitals.

Each orbital can hold two electrons, so the f subshell can hold 14 electrons.

\boxed{\textbf{14 electrons}} \text{ can share the quantum numbers n = 4 and l = 3.}

What aqueous solution has the highest boiling point at standard pressure? A) 1.0 M KCl(aq) B) 1.0 M CaCl2(aq) C) 2.0 M KCl(aq) D
Lapatulllka [165]
The increase in the boiling point of a solvent is a colligative property.


That means that the increase in the boling point will be related to the number of particles (molecules or ions) present in the solution.


The higher the number of particles (molecules or ions) the higher the increase in the boiling point.


All the aqueous solutions presented are electrolytes, i.e. the solutes are ionic compounds.


Then, you have to compare the number of ions that you have in each solution.


A) 1.0 M KCl ---> 1.0 M K+     +      1.0 MCl-    = 2 moles of particles / liter


B) 1.0 M CaCl2 --> 1.0M Ca(2+)      +      1.0M * 2 Cl (-)    = 3 moles of particle / liter


C) 2.0M KCl ---> 2.0 M K+      +      2.0 M Cl-  = 4 moles of particle / liter


D) 2.0 M CaCl2 ----> 2.0 M Ca (2+)      + 2.0M * 2 Cl (-)  = 6 moles of particle / liter.


Then, the solution 2.0M CaCl2(aq) has the highest increase in the boiling point.


Answer: option D) 2.0 M Ca Cl2(aq)

A 100g sample of a metal was heated to 100oC and then quickly transferred to an insulated container holding 100g of water at 22o
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

B) The metal temperature changed more than the water temperature did, but the metal lost

the same amount of thermal energy as the water gained.

Explanation:

Heat capacity or thermal capacity is defined as the amount of heat required by a given mass of a material to raise its temperature by one unit which means that the heat capacity of the water, that is the quantity of heat required to cause a rise from 22°C to 35°C that is a rise of 13°C is the quantity of heat that caused the drop in temperature of the metal from 100°C to 35°C a change of 65°C

The water has more capacity to absorb heat or a higher heat capacity than the metal

However, the first law of thermodynamics states that energy is neither created nor destroyed, but it changes from one form to another. In this case, the thermal energy lost by the metal is the same as the thermal or heat energy gained by the water
