Answer:

b) empty space

Explanation:

A mechanical cannot travel through empty space. So option (b) is correct.

A mechanical wave is a wave which needs a material medium for its propagation. For example sound, water waves etc . The medium required by the wave can be a solid, liquid or a gas. Empty space doesn't have any medium, so a mechanical wave cannot travel through empty space.

Answer:

Both:

-They are both made up of cells embedded in an extracellular matrix. It is the nature of the matrix that defines the properties of these connective tissues.

Cartilage:

-Cartilage is thin, avascular, flexible and resistant to compressive forces.

-Cartilages are soft and flexible components present in ear, nose and joints.

Bone marrow:

-Bone is highly vascularised, and its calcified matrix makes it very strong.

-Bones are hard and tough which gives the structural framework of the skeleton in the body.

The specific heat of the metal, given the data from the question is 0.60 J/gºC

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>

The following data were obtained from the question:

  • Mass of metal (M) = 74 g
  • Temperature of metal (T) = 94 °C
  • Mass of water (Mᵥᵥ) = 120 g
  • Temperature of water (Tᵥᵥ) = 26.5 °C
  • Equilibrium temperature (Tₑ) = 32 °C
  • Specific heat capacity of the water (Cᵥᵥ) = 4.184 J/gºC
  • Specific heat capacity of metal (C) =?

<h3>How to determine the specific heat capacity of the metal</h3>

The specific heat capacity of the sample of gold can be obtained as follow:

According to the law of conservation of energy, we have:

Heat loss = Heat gain

MC(T –Tₑ) = MᵥᵥC(Tₑ – Tᵥᵥ)

74 × C(94 – 32) = 120 × 4.184 (32 – 26.5)

C × 4588 = 2761.44

Divide both side by 4588

C = 2761.44 / 4588

C = 0.60 J/gºC

Thus, the specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.60 J/gºC

Metal M has only one oxidation state and forms a compound with the formula MHCO3. Which formula is correct? A.MNO3 b.MNH4 c.M(NO
never [62]

Answer:

The compound with the correct formula is;

A. MNO₃

Explanation:

The number of oxidation states in the metal, M = One oxidation state

The formula of the compound formed by the metal, M = MHCO₃

We note that the ion HCO₃⁻, known as hydrogen carbonate has an oxidation number of -1

Similarly nitrate, NO₃⁻ has an oxidation number of -1, therefore, the metal M can form similar compound formed with HCO₃⁻ with nitrate, and we have;

The possible compounds formed by the metal 'M' includes MHCO₃ and MNO₃.

Based on the following equation, how many moles of hydrochloric acid (HCl)are needed to react with 0.44 moles of potassium
inysia [295]

Answer:

1.76 moles of HCl.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2KMnO₄ + 8HCl —> 3Cl₂ + 2MnO₂ + 4H₂O + 2KCl

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of KMnO₄ reacted with 8 moles of HCl.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of HCl needed to react with 0.44 moles of KMnO₄. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of KMnO₄ reacted with 8 moles of HCl.

Therefore, 0.44 moles of KMnO₄ will react with = (0.44 × 8)/2 = 1.76 moles of HCl.

Thus, 1.76 moles of HCl is needed for the reaction.
