Answer:
See below
Step-by-step explanation:
heat gained by metal + heat lost by water = 0
m₁C₁ΔT₁ + m₂C₂ΔT₂ = 0
C₁ = -(m₂C₂ΔT₂)/(m₁ΔT₁)
The factors determining C₁ are
- mass of water
- temperature change of water (T_f - Ti)
- mass of metal
- temperature change of metal (T_f - Ti)
Any factor that makes the numerator higher or the denominator lower than what you thought, will give a calculated C₁ that is too high (and vice versa).
The major sources of uncertainty are probably in determining the temperatures, especially the initial and final temperatures of the metal. However, you will have to decide what the principal factors were in your experiment.
For example, did the metal have a chance to cool during the transfer to the calorimeter? How easy was it to determine the equilibrium temperature, etc?
Factors Affecting the Calculation of Specific Heat Capacity
<u> Too Low </u> <u> Too high </u>
Water Water
Mass less than thought Mass more than thought
Ti lower Ti higher
T_f higher T_f lower
Metal Metal
Mass more than thought Mass less than thought
Ti higher Ti lower
3I₂ + 2Al → 2AlI₃
m(I₂)=3M(I₂)m(Al)/{2M(Al)}
m(I₂)=3*253.8*20.4/{2*27.0}=287.64 g
Answer:
Initially, the ballast tanks are filled with water. The weight of the submarine is equal to the upthrust of the water at the position of the submarine under water. When high pressure air is released into the ballast tanks displacing the water, the weight of the submarine becomes less than the upthrust of the water thus the net force is is upwards and it forces the sub to resurface. This is according to the Archimedes principle which states that a a body partially or wholly immersed in water displaces its own weight of the fluid in which it is immersed.
Answer:
24 atm is the total pressure exerted by the gases
Explanation:
We propose this situation:
In a vessel, we have 4 gases (for example, hydrogen, Xe, methane and chlorine)
Each of the gases has the same pressure:
6 atm → hydrogen
6 atm → xenon
6 atm → methane
6 atm → chlorine
To determine the total pressure, we sum all of them:
Partial pressure H₂ + Partial pressure Xe + Partial pressure CH₄ + Partial pressure Cl₂ = Total P
6 atm + 6 atm + 6 atm + 6 atm = 24atm
