When 38.1 grams of a certain metal at a temperature of 90.0°C is added to 100.0mL of water at a temperature of 17.6°C in a perfe
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

a. qm = 627.3 J

b. qw = 627.3 J

c. C₂ = 227.4 J/kg.°C

Explanation:

a.

Since, the calorimeter is completely insulated. Therefore,

Heat Lost by Metal = Heat Gained by water

qm = qw

qm = m₁C₁ΔT₁

where,

qm = heat lost by metal = ?

m₁ = mass of water = (density)(volume) = (1000 kg/m³)(100 mL)(10⁻⁶ m³/1 mL)

m₁ = 0.1 kg

C₁ = specific heat capacity of water = 4182 J/kg.°C

ΔT₁ = Change in Temperature of Water = 19.1°C - 17.6°C = 1.5°C

Therefore,

qm = (0.1 kg)(4182 J/kg.°C)(1.5°C)

<u>qm = 627.3 J</u>

<u></u>

b.

Since,

qm = qw

<u>qw = 627.3 J</u>

<u></u>

c.

qm = m₂C₂ΔT₂

where,

m₂ = mass of metal = 38.1 g = 0.0381 kg

C₂ = specific heat capacity of metal = ?

ΔT₂ = Change in Temperature of metal = 90°C - 17.6°C = 72.4°C

Therefore,

627.3 J = (0.0381 kg)(C₂)(72.4°C)

(627.3 J)/(0.0381 kg)(72.4°C) = C₂

<u>C₂ = 227.4 J/kg.°C</u>

How will you describe the pathway of oxygen in the breathing system?
QveST [7]
<span>Air enters through the nose or mouth (which join to form the nasopharyngeal cavity). The air travels through the trachea which and the trachea splits into two bronchi. The air travels through the bronchi which split into smaller and smaller bronchioles. The tiny bronchioles and the air ends up in the miniscule alveoli, where the oxygen in the air diffuse into the bloodstream. Carbon dioxide diffuse from the bloodstream into the alveoli and the unwanted gas travels in reverse back to the nose and mouth, where it is breathed out.</span>

Geiger counters and scintillation counters differ in<br> Blank .
butalik [34]

The Geiger Counter. Geiger counters are used to detect radioactive emissions, most commonly beta particles and gamma rays. The counter consists of a tube filled with an inert gas that becomes conductive of electricity when it is impacted by a high-energy particle.

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

They should obtain the same Rf for the same compounds.

Explanation:

The <em>Rf</em> is defined as A/B. Where A is the displacement of the substance of interest, and B is the solvent front.

By dividing the substance's displacement by B, we make it so that the Rf factor is equal for identical compounds in the same mobile phase, no matter what the solvent front is.

When rubidium metal is exposed to air, two atoms of rubidium, Rb, combine with one atom
Eddi Din [679]

2.1653 g

Explanation:

The molar mass of Rubidium is;

85.468 g/mol

Therefore the moles of Rubidium that reacted with oxygen is;

1.98 / 85.468

= 0.0232 moles

If every two moles of Rubidium reacts with one mole of oxygen then the amount of oxygen consumed in the chemical reaction is;

0.5 * 0.0232

= 0.0116 moles

The molar mass of an oxygen atom is 16 g/mole. Then the amount of O in grams consumed is;

0.0116 * 16

=0.1853 g

The final weight of the Rubidium II Oxide is;

1.98 + 0.1853

= 2.1653 g
