Answer:

Heat change of the metal = -6799 J

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the metal = 20.0 grams

Mass of water = 250.0 grams

Initial temperature of water = 25.0 °C

Final temperature of water = 31.5 °C

Step 2: Calculate the heat change of the metal in joules?

Heat lost = heat gained

Qlost = -Qgained

Q = m*C*ΔT

m(metal) * C(metal) * ΔT(metal) = -m(water) * C(water) * ΔT(water)

⇒with m(metal) = the mass of metal = 20.0 grams

⇒with C(metal) = the specific heat of meteal = ?

⇒with ΔT(metal) = the change of temperature of the metal = ?

⇒with m(water) = the mass of water = 250.0 grams

⇒with C(water) = the specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒with ΔT(water) = the change of temperature of water = T2 - T1 = 31.5 °C - 25.0 °C = 6.5 °C

The heat change of metal = heat change of water

Q = 250 * 4.184 * 6.5

Q = 6799 J

Heat change of water = 6799 J

Heat change of the metal = -6799 J

Answer:

$Q_{metal} = -6799\,J$

Explanation:

By the First Law of Thermodynamics, the piece of metal and water reaches thermal equilibrium when water receives heat from the piece of metal. Then:

$Q_{metal} = - Q_{w}$

$Q_{metal} = m_{w} \cdot c_{p,w}\cdot (T_{1}-T_{2})$

$Q_{metal} = (250\,g)\cdot \left(4.184\,\frac{J}{g\cdot ^{\textdegree}C} \right)\cdot (25\,^{\textdegree}C - 31.5\,^{\textdegree}C)$

$Q_{metal} = -6799\,J$

If, in a peptide chain, there were 85 amino acids each joined by peptide bonds, how many n-terminus groups would be present?

Crank

If, in a peptide chain, there were 85 amino acids each joined by peptide bonds, there would only be 1 N-terminus group that would be present. The N-terminus group is always the start of the chain of a amino acid chain or a protein or a polypeptide. It refers to the free amine group present that is located at the end part of the chain. So, that no matter how many amino acids in a chain there would always be only one N-terminus group.

Answer:

Hope this helps!

Explanation:

I would help you, but I won't. Because you take others people points without helping them and but random words. So, since you are doing that I won't be helping you <3. Thanks for the points idiot.

The anion of which element has a –1 charge?

vovangra [49]

An anion is a negatively charged ion. An element can become an anion if it takes an extra electron such that it has one more electron than protons.
Atoms would preferentially taken an extra electron so that it can have a full octet and be more stable.

$\sf Cl^-, Br^-, F^-$ are some of the few elements that would have a -1 charge.

When a 3.25 g sample of solid sodium hydroxide was dissolved in a calorimeter in 100.0 g of water, the temperature rose from 23.

sertanlavr [38]

Answer : The enthalpy change for the solution is 42.8 kJ/mol

Explanation :

Heat released by the reaction = Heat absorbed by the calorimeter + Heat absorbed by the water

$q=[q_1+q_2]$

$q=[c_1\times \Delta T+m\times c_2\times \Delta T]$

where,

q = heat released by the reaction

$q_1$ = heat absorbed by the calorimeter

$q_2$ = heat absorbed by the water

$c_1$ = specific heat of calorimeter = $15.8J/^oC$

$c_2$ = specific heat of water = $4.18J/g^oC$

$m$ = mass of water = 100.0 g

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature = $T_2-T_1=(32.0-23.9)=8.1^oC$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q=[(15.8J/^oC\times 8.1^oC)+(100.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times 8.1^oC)]$

$q=3513.8J=3.5138kJ$ (1 kJ = 1000 J)

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy change for the solution.

$\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}$

where,

$\Delta H$ = enthalpy change = ?

q = heat released = 3.5138 kJ

m = mass of NaOH = 3.25 g

Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }NaOH=\frac{\text{Mass of }NaOH}{\text{Molar mass of }NaOH}=\frac{3.25g}{40g/mole}=0.0812mole$

Now,

$\Delta H=\frac{3.5138kJ}{0.0821mole}=42.8kJ/mol$

Therefore, the enthalpy change for the solution is 42.8 kJ/mol
