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)

Explanation:

Matter undergoes two types of changes: physical changes and chemical changes.

A physical change is one that affects only the physical properties of a substance such as colour, size, shape, etc., and in which no new substances are formed. Physical changes are easily reversible.

Chemical changes are changes which affect the chemical characteristics and properties of a substance such as reactivity, acidity, basicity, etc., resulting in the formation of new substances.

The following changes below are categorized as either physical or chemical changes based on which of the properties of the substance is affected and whether new substances result or not.

nlexa [21]
Answer is: <span>concentration of fluoride in the water in parts-per-million is 1 ppm.
</span>Parts-per-million (10⁻⁶) is<span> present at one-millionth of a </span>gram per gram of sample solution, f<span>or example mg/kg.
</span>m(fluoride) = 500 g · 1000 mg/g = 500000 mg.
m(water) = d(water) · V(water).
m(water) = 1 kg/L · 500000 L.
m(water) = 500000 kg.
arts-per-million = 500000 mg ÷ 500000 kg = 1 mg/kg = 1 ppm.
