Answer:

The heat absorbed by the water is 228,948.48 J

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

In this way, between heat and temperature there is a direct proportional relationship (Two magnitudes are directly proportional when there is a constant so that when one of the magnitudes increases, the other also decreases; and the same happens when either of the two decreases .). The constant of proportionality depends on the substance that constitutes the body and its mass, and is the product of the specific heat and the mass of the body. So, the equation that allows to calculate heat exchanges is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, constituted by a substance of specific heat c and where ΔT is the variation in temperature.

In this case:

  • c= 4.184 \frac{J}{g*C}
  • m=855 g
  • ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= 85 °C - 21°C= 64 °C

Replacing:

Q= 4.184 \frac{J}{g*C} *855 g* 64 C

Solving:

Q= 228,948.48 J

<u><em>The heat absorbed by the water is 228,948.48 J</em></u>

The molar mass of a certain gas is 80.6 g. What is the density of the gas in g/L at STP?
vfiekz [6]
Using the ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT

Substituting n with mass / Mr
PV = mRT/Mr

Density = m/V
So rearranging:
Density = PMr/RT

P = 1 atm
R = 0.082 L atm / K mol
T = 273 K
Density = (1 x 80.6) / (0.082 x 273)
Density = 3.6 g / L

Which statements describe the six elements found in all living things? Check all that apply.
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Carbon is the basis of all living things

Nitrogen is found in certain foods

Oxygen and hydrogen combine with each other to form water

Carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, phosphorus and sulfur are found in organic compounds

Explanation:

We are all made up of mainly three elements, Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen. These three elements are found in every living organism on our planet, and along with a few trace elements, they make up all the nutrients we take in and use to build our bodies and survive.

Nitrogen is primarily found in meats, and this is because nitrogen is a key element in amino acids (which are used to build proteins), however we cannot directly assimilate nitrogen from the air, so we have to assimilate it through amino acids already synthesized in plants, or in proteins found in meat.

The chemical formula for water is H₂O. Seeing the chemical formula, it is obvious that hydrogen and oxygen are the only elements in the water molecule.

In our bodies, we use phosphorus to form our skeleton and help maintain it, sulfur and nitrogen can be found in some amino acids, and carbon, hydrogen and oxygen can be found in carbohydrates, lipids and proteins.
