QveST [7]3 years ago
8 0
Hi,

Atom is the second smallest form of any matter behind elementary particles. They are not visible to human eye. It consists of protons and neutrons in the atom core and electrons outside its core. All protons, neutrons and electrons are a part of atomic nuclei.

The more neutrons atom haves the bigger the mass of an atom is.

Number of electrons determines which element does atom represent. The more electrons atom haves the heavier element atom represents.

Different elements have different properties.

Hope this helped you understand what atom is better.

Hope this helps.

MArishka [77]
Here is the correct option: According to Newton's third law of motion, the balloon is pushed forward as the air is forced out.  Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that in every interaction, there is a pair of force that is acting on the interacting objects, the size of the force on the first object is equal to the size of the force on the second object.

23 grams of sodium reacts with 293 cm 3 of water that is initially at 298 k. it produces an enthalpy change of 197 kj. what is t
m_a_m_a [10]

448 K is the final temperature of the water.

<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>

The specific heat capacity is defined as the quantity of heat (J) absorbed per unit mass (kg) of the material when its temperature increases by 1 K (or 1 °C), and its units are J/(kg K) or J/(kg °C).

Given,

the mass of Na is 23 g

The volume of water = 293 cm3

Mass of water = 293 g

Total solution mass = 23 g + 293 g = 316 g

Specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 J/Kg

The equation relating mass, heat, specific heat capacity and temperature change is:

q = mcΔT

197 kJ = 316 g x 4.18 J/Kg x (T_{finals} - T_ {initial})

197 kJ = 316 g x 4.18 J/Kg x ( T_{finals}-298 K)

0.1491429956 x 1000 =  T_{finals}-298 K

149.1429956 + 298 = T_{finals}

447.1429956 = T_{finals}

448 K = T_{finals}

Hence, 448 K is the final temperature of the water.

<h3>What does a high specific heat capacity mean?</h3>

A high specific heat capacity means that it can store a large amount of thermal energy for a small change in mass or temperature.
