Answer:

The answer to the question is

The specific heat capacity of the alloy = 1.77 J/(g·°C)

Explanation:

To solve this, we list out the given variables thus

Mass of alloy = 45 g

Initial temperature of the alloy = 25 °C

Final temperature of the alloy = 37 °C

Heat absorbed by the alloy = 956 J

Thus we have

ΔH = m·c·(T₂ - T₁) where  ΔH = heat absorbed by the alloy = 956 J, c = specific heat capacity of the alloy and T₁ = Initial temperature of the alloy = 25 °C , T₂ = Final temperature of the alloy = 37 °C  and m = mass of the alloy = 45 g

∴ 956 J = 45 × C × (37 - 25) = 540 g·°C×c  or

c = 956 J/(540 g·°C) = 1.77 J/(g·°C)

The specific heat capacity of the alloy is 1.77 J/(g·°C)

.7 liters of CO represents how many molecules?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

               1.88 × 10²² Molecules of CO

Explanation:

At STP for an ideal gas,

Volume = Mole × 22.4 L/mol

Or,

Mole = Volume / 22.4 L/mol

Mole = 0.7 L / 22.4 L/mol

Mole = 0.03125 moles

Now,

No. of Molecules = Moles × 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules/mol

No. of Molecules = 0.03125 × 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules/mol

No. of Molecules = 1.88 × 10²² Molecules of CO

What is the form of energy that an object has due to its temperature
SOVA2 [1]
There is thermal energy, but temperature is also a measure of the average kinetic energy, so either of those should be acceptable answers for the question.
