Answer:
The specific heat of gold is 0.129 J/g°C
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Mass of gold = 15.3 grams
Heat absorbed = 87.2 J
Initial temperature = 35.0 °C
Final temperature = 79.2 °C
Step 2:
Q = m*c*ΔT
⇒ Q =the heat absorbed = 87.2 J
⇒ m = the mass of gold = 15.3 grams
⇒ c = the specific heat of gold = TO BE DETERMINED
⇒ ΔT = The change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 79.2 - 35.0 = 44.2 °C
87.2 J = 15.3g * c * 44.2°C
c = 87.2 / (15.3 * 44.2)
c = 0.129 J/g°C
The specific heat of gold is 0.129 J/g°C
Find the molar mass of CH3 and divide that by 45.0. That should give a whole number and then mult that whole number by CH3 to find molecular formula to get like ( incorrect ex: C2H6) which is mult by 2
