The mass of water in a single popcorn kernel was found to be 0.905 grams after it popped at a temperature of 175 °C. Using the i

nformation given in the Introduction, calculate the amount of heat in kilojoules required to pop this single kernel if the room temperature was recorded to be 21.0 °C.

Answer:

0.583 kilojoules

Explanation:

The amount of heat required to pop a single kernel can be calculated using the formula as follows:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat (J)

m = mass of water (g)

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

∆T = change in temperature

From the given information, m = 0.905 g, initial temperature (room temperature) = 21°C , final temperature = 175°C, Q = ?

Q = m × c × ∆T

Q = 0.905 × 4.184 × (175°C - 21°C)

Q = 3.786 × 154

Q = 583.044 Joules

In kilojoules i.e. we divide by 1000, the amount of heat is:

= 583.04/1000

= 0.583 kilojoules

andrey2020 [161]

Answer: An inorganic acid.

Explanation: An inorganic acid (also called a mineral acid) is an acid derived from one or more inorganic compounds. All inorganic acids form hydrogen ions and the conjugate base ions when dissolved in water. Commonly used inorganic acids are sulfuric acid (H2SO4), hydrochloric acid (HCl), and nitric acid (HNO3). Hope this helps :)

from the following equation in which decomposition of CaCO3 takes place, give your justification. CaCO3 gives Ca +CO2 ​
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

CaCO₃(s) => CaO(s) + CO₂(g) ... GpIIA Decomp

Explanation:

Metallic Carbonates decompose into a metallic oxide and carbon dioxide.

Examples:

Na₂CO₃(s) => Na₂O(s) + CO₂(g) ... GpIA Decomp

MgCO₃(s) => MgO(s) + CO₂(g) ... GpIIA Decomp

How is the sugar cube like a sedimentary rock?
noname [10]
This is heated until evaporation occurs and sugar crystals are precipitated. This is similar to how chemical sedimentary rocks are formed (like rock salt or cave limestone). It is then separated into small individual crystals. This can be representative of weathering and erosion of rock into sediment

A gas has a pressure of 3.16 atm at STP. I have decided to transfer it to a container that is 3 times larger than the original v
Oliga [24]

Answer:

<u>The new pressure is 1.0533 atm</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

According  to<u> Boyle's Law :</u> The Pressure of fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to Volume at constant temperature.

PV = Constant

P1V1 = P2V2

P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}.....(1)

P1 = 3.16 atm

Accprding to question ,

V1 = V

V2 = 3 V

Insert the value of V1 , V2 and P1 in the equation(1)

P_{1}V_{1}=P_{2}V_{2}

3.16\times V=P_{2}\times 3V

V and V cancel each other

3.16=P_{2}\times 3

P_{2}=\frac{3.16}{3}

P_{2}=1.05atm
