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.

Based on the information above, which statement provides evidence that a chemical reaction has occurred?
Vesna [10]

Answer: Atoms that make up reactants rearrange into new products

Explanation:

A chemical reaction is the process of breaking down the chemical bonds of the reacting substances  which are commonly called as reactants and making new bonds to form new substances commonly called as products.

The products will contain the same atoms as there are in the reactants but the bonds will rearrange to form different substances.

Every chemical reaction is accompanied with absorption or release of energy.

Write the equation for the reaction described: A solid metal oxide, Ag2O, and hydrogen are the products of the reaction between
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

2Ag + H2O -----> Ag2O + 2H

Explanation:

2Ag + H2O -----> Ag2O + 2H is the equation of the reaction between metal and steam. Silver reacts with water (steam) forming silver oxide and hydrogen gas. When the metals react with steam it produces the solid metal oxide and hydrogen gas. On the surface o metals, a protective layer of aluminium oxide is formed that keeps water away from the metal so we can say that silver oxide and hydrogen are formed from the reaction of silver metal and steam.

Ammonia can be produced via the chemicalreaction
otez555 [7]

Answer:

3)The reaction is not at equilibrium and willproceed to the right.

Explanation:

The reaction quotient of an equilibrium reaction measures relative amounts of the products and the reactants present during the course of the reaction at  particular point in the time.

It is the ratio of the concentration of the products and the reactants each raised to their stoichiometric coefficients. The concentration of the liquid and the gaseous species does not change and thus is not written in the expression.

Q < Kc , reaction will proceed in forward direction.

Q > Kc , reaction will proceed in backward direction.

Q = Kc , reaction at equilibrium.

Given that:

Q = 3.56\times 10^{-4}

K = 6.02\times 10^{-2}

Since, Q < K , reaction is not at equilibrium and will proceed to right, in forward direction.
