Answer : The metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is 
).
Explanation :
In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.
where,
= specific heat of unknown metal = ?
= specific heat of water = 
= mass of unknown metal = 150 g
= mass of water = 200 g
= final temperature of water = 
= initial temperature of unknown metal = 
= initial temperature of water = 
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get
Form the value of specific heat of unknown metal, we conclude that the metal used in this was iron (Fe).
Therefore, the metal used was iron (the specific heat capacity is ).
Answer:
The number of Chlorine atoms in the product is 2.
Explanation:
The law of conservation of mass states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
The reactants contain one chlorine molecule(
) which has two chlorine atoms.
Then, according to law of conservation of matter, the product must contain two chlorine atoms.
The answer is D, medical diagnosis
Answer:
Here's what I find.
Explanation:
An indicator is usually is a weak acid in which the acid and base forms have different colours. Most indicators change colour over a narrow pH range.
(a) Litmus
Litmus is red in acid (< pH 5) and blue in base (> pH 8).
This is a rather wide pH range, so litmus is not much good in titrations.
However, the range is which it changes colour includes pH 7 (neutral), so it is good for distinguishing between acids and bases.
(b) Phenolphthalein
Phenolphthalein is colourless in acid (< pH 8.3) and red in base (> pH 10).
This is a narrow pH range, so phenolphthalein is good for titrating acids with strong bases..
However, it can't distinguish between acids and weakly basic solutions.
It would be colourless in a strongly acid solution with pH =1 and in a basic solution with pH = 8.
(c) Other indicators
Other acid-base indicators have the general limitations as phenolphthalein. Most of them have a small pH range, so they are useful in acid-base titrations.
The only one that could serve as a general acid-base indicator is bromothymol blue, which has a pH range of 6.0 to 7.6.
