Powder. It will dissolve faster and should provide rapid pain relief.
The heat cause 300g water temperature increase from 20 to 26 celcius. The heat transferred would be: 300g * (26 °C -20 °C) *4.2 joule/gram °C= 7560J
The unknown substance is added to the water, so its final temperature should be the same as the water. The calculation would be:
7560J= 124g * (100-26)* specific heat
specific heat= 7560J / 124g / 74 °C= 0.8238 J/gram °C
<h3>Answer:</h3>
Rb = + 1
S = + 4
O = - 2
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
Oxidation states of the elements were calculated keeping in mind the basic rules of assigning oxidation states which included assignment of +1 charge to first group elements i.e. Rubidium (Rb) and assignment of -2 charge to Oxygen atom. Then the oxidation state of Sulfur was calculated as follow,
Rb₂ + S + O₃ = 0
Above zero (0) means that the overall molecule is neutral.
Putting values of Rb and O,
(+1)₂ + S + (-2)₃ = 0
(+2) + S + (-6) = 0
+2 + S - 6 = 0
S - 6 = -2
S = -2 + 6
S = + 4
