Answer:

The specific heat of iron is 0.45 J/g.°C

Explanation:

The amount of heat absorbed by the metal is given by:

heat = m x Sh x ΔT

From the data, we have:

heat = 180.8 J

mass = m = 22.44 g

ΔT = Final temperature - Initial temperature = 39.0°C - 21.1 °C = 17.9°C

Thus, we calculate the specific heat of iron (Sh) as follows:

Sh = heat/(m x ΔT)  = (180.8 J)/(22.44 g x 17.9°C) = 0.45 J/g.°C

  If the temperature is kept constant, what change in volume would cause the pressure of an enclosed gas to be reduced to one-th
joja [24]
Using the ideal gas equation pV = nRT, where R is the ideal gas constant, we can show that p=nRT/V. Since n, R and T are all constants, p2/p1 = V1/V2 where p1 and p2 are the start and final pressures respectively and V1 and V2 are the start and final volumes respectively. For if p1 = 3*p2, the pressure would have fallen to one third of its original value, and it follows that V2 = 3*V1. Therefore, for the pressure to fall to a third of its original value, the volume must increase by a factor of 3.

fgiga [73]
A cation-exchange column is a type of chromatography that separates substances according to their charges. The cation-exchange column in particular has a negatively charged resin that will attract positively charged ions. 

Applying this principle with amino acids, we can say, for example that the negatively charged ones (e.g., aspartate and glutamate) will elute first compared to the positively charged ones (e.g., lysine, arginine, and histidine), which will elute last.

The chemical formula of aspirin is C9H8O4. What is the mass of 0.40 mol<br> of aspirin?​
dybincka [34]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf About \ 72 \ grams }}

Explanation:

To convert from moles to grams, we must use the molar mass (also known as the gram formula mass).

First, look up the molar masses of the elements in the formula.

  • C: 12.011 g/mol
  • H: 1.008 g/mol
  • O: 15.999 g/mol

Next, multiply by the subscript, because it tells us the number of atoms of each element in the formula.

  • C₉: 4(12.011 g/mol)= 108.099 g/mol
  • H₈: 8(1.008 g/mol)= 8.064 g/mol
  • O₄: 4(15.999 g/mol)= 63.996 g/mol

Add the values.

  • 108.099 + 8.064+63.996=180.159 g/mol

Use this molar mass as a ratio.

\frac {180.159 \ g \  C_9H_8O_4}{1 \ mol \ C_9H_8O_4}

Multiply by the given number of moles, 0.40

0.40 \ mol \ C_9H_8O_4 *\frac {180.159 \ g \  C_9H_8O_4}{1 \ mol \ C_9H_8O_4}

The units moles of aspirin cancel.

0.40  *\frac {180.159 \ g \  C_9H_8O_4}{1 }

72.0636 \ g \ C_9H_8O_4

The original number of moles has 2 sig figs (4 and 0), so answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, it is the ones place. The 0 in the tenth place tells us to leave the 2.

72 \ g

How do oil spills affect marine ecosystems?
charle [14.2K]
Oil makes it impossible for fur-bearing mammals to insulate<span>, this leaves them unprotected from the harsh elements out in the water. Birds and mammals will die from hypothermia without the ability to insulate from the freezing water. 

I hope this helps you! :-)</span>
