forsale [732]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Silver

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass = 116g

Energy  = 511J

Initial temperature  = 21.6°C

Final temperature  = 40.5°C

Unknown:

Specific heat capacity and the type of metal = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to find the specific heat capacity of the metal given,

         H  = m x c x Ф  

H is the energy

m is the mass

c is the specific heat capacity

Ф is the change in temperature

        511  = 116 x c x (40.5 - 21.6)

         511  = 2192.4c

           c  = 0.233J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of silver is similar to this.

The burning of a sample of propane
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

70.0°C

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Amount of heat generated by propane as 104.6 kJ or 104600 Joules
  • Mass of water is 500 g
  • Initial temperature as 20.0 ° C

We are required to determine the final temperature of water;

Taking the initial temperature is x°C

We know that the specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g°C

Quantity of heat = Mass × specific heat × change in temperature

In this case;

Change in temp =(x-20)° C

Therefore;

104600 J = 500 g × 4.18 J/g°C × (x-20)

104600 J = 2090x -41800

146400 = 2090 x

  x = 70.0479

     =70.0 °C

Thus, the final temperature of water is 70.0°C

What is the molarity (M) of an 85.0-mL solution (total volume) containing 1.77 g of ethanol (C2H5OH)
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer: The molarity of solution is 0.453 M

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}

where,

n = moles of solute

V_s = volume of solution in ml

moles of C_2H_5OH = \frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{1.77g}{46g/mol}=0.0385mol

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get

Molarity=\frac{0.0385\times 1000}{85.0}

Molarity=0.453

Therefore, the molarity of solution is 0.453 M

What is the oxidation number of Cl in Cl2O3
Alchen [17]
Since Cl2O3 is a neutral compound, it has an overall charge of 0, which means that the total oxidation number of the compound is 0.

O has an oxidation number of 2- so, 3(2-)= 6-

to have an overall charge of 0, 6+ shpuld be added. Since there are 2 Cl's 6/2=3

Oxidation number of Cl is 3+
