Answer:

0.934J/g°C

Explanation:

Using Q = mc∆T

However, in this question;

(Q)water = -(Q)metal

(mc∆T)water = -(mc∆T)metal

According to the information provided in the question;

For water;

m = mass = 72.9g

c = specific capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C

∆T = 22.9 - 15.9 = 7°C

For metal;

m = mass = 45.7g

c = specific capacity of water = ?

∆T = 22.9 - 72.9 = -50°C

(mc∆T)water = -(mc∆T)metal

(72.9 × 4.184 × 7) = -(45.7 × c × -50)

2135.0952 = -(-2285c)

2135.0952 = 2285c

c = 2135.0952/2285

c of metal = 0.934J/g°C

Why did we have you determine the reaction rate using reactant consumed per unit of time instead of product formed per unit of t
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:Rate of reaction can be determined in terms of concentration of reactants consumed or concentration of product formed per unit time

Explanation: For the reaction below

A ===>B

The reactant is A while the product given is B.

Reaction rate = Δ[B]/Δt = -Δ[A]/Δt

The concentration of A will decrease with time while the concentration of B will increases with time.

The negative sign in -Δ[A]/Δt is to convert the expression to positive since the change will always be negative (decreases)

the combustion of 0.1240 kg of propane in the presence of excess oxygen produces 0.3110kg of carbon dioxide what is the limittin
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

Propane

Explanation:

From the question given, we were told that 0.1240 kg of propane reacted with excess oxygen to produce 0.3110kg of carbon dioxide.

Since the reaction took place in the presence of excess oxygen, therefore, propane is the limiting reactant as all of it is used up in the presence of excess oxygen.

Isotope b has a half-life of 3 days. a scientist measures out 100 grams of this substance. after 6 days has passed, the scientis
Brilliant_brown [7]
So half life is the time taken for a sample to decay to half its original mass, its a constant and applies to any original mass, it could be 5g or 1kg, it will take the same amount of time for the original mass to half. In this case the half life is 3 days.

After 3 days the sample will be at half its original mass, now 50g. 

Now we can treat the 50g as if its a new sample. After another 3 days (6 days in total) there will be half of 50g left, = 25g.
