Answer: Molar mass is the amount grams that one mole weighs.

Explanation: You need to find the molar mass of NaCl which is the same as the amu on the periodic table in grams. So it is 22.99(Na) + 35.45(Cl) = 58.44

You also know that for every mole of NaCl you have 1 mole of Na because every molecule of NaCl has 1 atom of Na.

Finally, using the periodic table, again, you see that the molar mass of Na is 22.99.

Then using stoichiometry, you can find the grams of sodium.

100(g NaCl) * 1 mol (NaCl)/58.44 g (NaCl) * 1 mol (Na)/ 1 mol (NaCl) * 22.99 (g of Na)/ 1 mol (Na)

which equals 39.339435 g of Na.

If you need to maintain significant figures the answer will be 40.

I would think that the answer would be three

Because of the prefix tri- in "tigonal"

Tri- means 3, as in tricycle or triangle

So, it would make sense for the answer to be 3

In a beaker, 300 grams of water at 80°C cools down to 20°C. Assume all the heat from the water is absorbed by 100 cubic meters o

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

mass of water, mw = 300g = 0.3kg

∆Tw = (80 - 20) °C

volume of air, va = 100m³

mass of air, ma = 100g = 0.1kg

∆Ta = ?

H = mc∆T

Hw = mwcw∆Tw

Hw = 0.3*4200*60

Hw = 75600J

Hw = 75.6 kJ

All the above heat energy got absorbed by air,

that is; Ha = 75600J

since it's given that the heat was absorbed by a specific amount of volume of air

then specific capacity of volume of air is

then,

ca = Ha × density

ma temp

then,

Ha = vaca∆Ta

where, ca = volumetric heat capacity of air = 0.012kJ/m³°C

75.6kJ = 100m³ × 0.012kJ/m³°C × ∆Ta

75.6 = 1.2/°C × ∆Ta

∆Ta = 63°C

63°C is the temperature change in air.
