Answer:
The correct answer is cation. See the explanation below, please.
Explanation:
An atom with a net charge, either positive or negative, is called an ion. In the event that an atom loses an electron (or more), that is, it will have more protons than electrons, and its net charge will be positive, it will be called cation. In the opposite direction, if an atom gains electrons, it will have a negative net charge, called anion.
The majority of the mass of the atom is located in the nucleus. Remember that the nucleus contains both protons and neutrons and therefore, most of the mass of the atom.
b. testing the hypothesis
Answer:
0.296 J/g°C
Explanation:
Step 1:
Data obtained from the question.
Mass (M) =35g
Heat Absorbed (Q) = 1606 J
Initial temperature (T1) = 10°C
Final temperature (T2) = 165°C
Change in temperature (ΔT) = T2 – T1 = 165°C – 10°C = 155°C
Specific heat capacity (C) =..?
Step 2:
Determination of the specific heat capacity of iron.
Q = MCΔT
C = Q/MΔT
C = 1606 / (35 x 155)
C = 0.296 J/g°C
Therefore, the specific heat capacity of iron is 0.296 J/g°C
