Answer:

Silver.

Explanation:

To obtain the right answer to question, let us calculate the change in temperature for each substance assuming they all have the same mass as 100g.

This is illustrated below:

1. For Siver:

Mass (M) = 100g

Specific heat capacity (C) = 0.239J/g°C

Heat (Q) = 100 kJ = 100000J

Change in temperature (ΔT)

Q = MCΔT

ΔT = Q/MC

ΔT = 100000/(100 x 0.239)

ΔT = 4184°C

2. For Aluminium:

Mass (M) = 100g

Specific heat capacity (C) = 0.921J/g°C

Heat (Q) = 100 kJ = 100000J

Change in temperature (ΔT)

Q = MCΔT

ΔT = Q/MC

ΔT = 100000/(100 x 0.921)

ΔT = 1086°C

3. For Lithium:

Mass (M) = 100g

Specific heat capacity (C) = 3.56J/g°C

Heat (Q) = 100 kJ = 100000J

Change in temperature (ΔT)

Q = MCΔT

ΔT = Q/MC

ΔT = 100000/(100 x 3.56 )

ΔT = 281°C

4. For water:

Mass (M) = 100g

Specific heat capacity (C) = 4.184J/g°C

Heat (Q) = 100 kJ = 100000J

Change in temperature (ΔT)

Q = MCΔT

ΔT = Q/MC

ΔT = 100000/(100 x 4.184)

ΔT = 239°C

Summary

Temperature change of each substance is given below

1. Silver => 4184°C

2. Aluminum => 1086°C

3. Lithium => 281°C

4. Water => 239°C

From the calculations made above, Silver has the highest rise in temperature.

A student observes the combustion (burning) of propane (C3H8). Because of the heat and light it generates, the student concludes
insens350 [35]

Answer:

The student's conclusion is not correct

Explanation:

Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required for a reaction to occur. All reactions require there activation energy to be met before the reaction can proceed. When the temperature of a reaction is increased, the kinetic energy of the reactant molecules increases; colliding more with each other, which makes them "surmount" the activation energy of the reaction faster as compared to a lower temperature.

In combustion, there is burning of an hydrocarbon (in this case propane) in excess oxygen. The burning assists in increasing the kinetic energy of the reactant particles which in turn easily surmounts the activation energy of the reaction  by colliding (effective collision) more with oxygen. So, the reaction has an activation energy but the activation energy has been met and passed and hence the reaction is proceeding faster.

Increasing the temperature of a reaction is one of the ways of increasing the rate of a chemical reaction.

The charges and sizes of the ions in an ionic compound affect the strength of the electrostatic attraction holding that compound
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

order = SrS > SrCl2 > RbCl > CsBr

Explanation:

Comparison of the melting points of compounds is basically dependent on the charge on their cation and anion, the more the charges on the cation and anion, the stronger and greater the force of attraction and as such the melting point will be relatively higher as well.

The ionic radii is also another factor to be considered, the more the distance between ions, the lesser the bond strength and the lesser the melting point.

from the options, in terms of ionic radii SrS > SrCl2 and RbCl > CsBr

also both SrS and SrCl2 have more charges on their ions compared to RbCl and CsBr and as such the arrangement of the highest melting point will be in the order SrS > SrCl2 > RbCl > CsBr.
