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

What reactions are involved in making plastic bags and what are the molecules that make up a plastic bag like?
denpristay [2]
Plastic bags are made up of plastic film, non-woven fabric, or plastic textile. The molecules that are present in plastic bags are polymers. Polymers are large molecules made up of repeating units called monomers.
I know this isn't much, but I hope it helps! :)

If I initially have a gas at a pressure of 12 atm, volume of 23 liters, and temperature of 200 K, and then I raise the pressure
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer : The volume of gas will be 29.6 L

Explanation:

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 12 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 14 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 23 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 200K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = 300K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.

\frac{12atm\times 23L}{200K}=\frac{14\times V_2}{300K}

V_2=29.6L

Therefore, the new volume of gas will be 29.6 L

The pH of lemon juice is 2, and the pH of orange juice is 4. Which of these is more acidic, and by how much? What does this mean
katovenus [111]

Explanation:

The pH is a 1 to 14 scale that measures how acidic or basic is a solution, at lowest number the solution will be acid, in 7 the solution will be neutral, and in higher values will be basic. It is a  logarithmic scale, so with each number you move, the acidity or basicity will be increased by a factor of 10. So, lemon juice is more acidic than orange juice by a factor of 100.

2 Na + Cl2 --&gt; 2 NaCl<br> What is the mole ratio of sodium to sodium chloride?
Irina18 [472]

Answer: The mole ratio of sodium to sodium chloride 2:2.

Explanation:

As the given reaction equation is as follows.

2Na + Cl_{2} \rightarrow 2NaCl

Here, 2 moles of sodium reacts with 1 mole of Cl_{2} and leads to the formation of 2 moles of NaCl.

This means that 2 moles of sodium gives 2 moles of NaCl on reaction with chlorine.

Hence, the ratio of moles of sodium to sodium chloride is 2:2.

Thus, we can conclude that the mole ratio of sodium to sodium chloride 2:2.
