Answer: 0.65\ J/g.^{\circ}C

Explanation:

Given

Mass of iron piece is m=17.98\ g

Heat absorbed Q=2056.5\ J

Temperature changes from 25^{\circ}C\ to\ 200^{\circ}C i.e.

\Delta T=200-25=175^{\circ}C

Heat absorbed is given by Q=mc\Delta T\quad [c=\text{specific heat of material}]

Insert the values

\Rightarrow 2056.5=17.98\times c\times 175\\\\\Rightarrow c=\dfrac{2056.5}{3146.5}\\\\\Rightarrow c=0.65\ J/g.^{\circ}C

Thus, the specific heat of iron is 0.65\ J/g.^{\circ}C

An elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction in which an elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction
tresset_1 [31]
So I’m not 100% sure what you’re asking but I’m going to give it a go. The elimination reaction is a term used in organic chemistry that describes a type of reactions. The name kinda tells you what’s going to happen. Something is going to be removed/eliminated from initial reactant/substrate and as a result, an alkene (double bond containing compound) will form.

In elimination reactions a hydrogen atom is first removed (as a H+) from the beta carbon. As a result, the left behind electrons create a pi bond between the beta carbon and the neighboring alpha carbon. This promotes the electronegative atom, on the alpha carbon, to leaves the substrate taking both electrons from the shared sigma bond with the alpha carbon.

How many moles of MgSiO3 are in 237g of the compound?
Anna35 [415]
For this, we first calculate molecular weight of MgSiO₃:
Atomic masses:
Mg = 24
Si = 28
O = 16

Mr = 24 + 28 + 16 x 3
Mr = 100

moles = mass / Mr
moles = 237 / 100
moles = 2.37

What is the weight of a 90kg man standing on the moon, where gmoon = 1.64 m/s2?
Doss [256]

Answer:

The weigth of a 90kg man standing on the moon is <u><em>147.6 N (option C)</em></u>

Explanation:

Weight is called the action exerted by the force of gravity on the body.

The mass (amount of matter that a body contains) of an object will always be the same, regardless of where it is located. Instead, the weight of the object will vary according to the force of gravity acting on it.

The formula that allows you to calculate the weight of any body is:

W = m*g

where:

  • W = weight measured in N.
  • m = mass measured in kg.
  • g = acceleration of gravity measured in m/s². The acceleration of gravity g is the same for all objects that fall due to gravitational attraction, whatever their size or composition. For example, as an approximate value on Earth, g = 9.8 m/s².

In this case,  the mass m has a value of 90 kg and the gravity g has a value of 1.64 m/s², which is the value of the acceleration of gravity of the moon. Then:

W=90 kg* 1.64 m/s²

<u><em>W= 147.6 N</em></u>

Finally, <u><em>the weigth of a 90kg man standing on the moon is 147.6 N (option C)</em></u>
