Answer:

c =0.2 J/g.°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Specific heat of material = ?

Mass of sample = 12 g

Heat absorbed = 48 J

Initial temperature = 20°C

Final temperature = 40°C

Solution:

Specific heat capacity:

It is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of substance by one degree.

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

ΔT =  40°C -20°C

ΔT =  20°C

48 J = 12 g×c×20°C

48 J =240 g.°C×c

c = 48 J/240 g.°C

c =0.2 J/g.°C

Stannum has a body centered tetragonal with lattice constant, a = b = 5.83A and c = 3.18A. If the atomic radius is 0.145 nm, det
Fed [463]

Answer:

the atomic packing factor of Sn is 0.24

Explanation:

a = b = 5.83A and c = 3.18A.

Volume of unit cell = a²c

= (5.83)² *  3.18 * 10⁻²⁴ cm³

= 1.08 * 10⁻²²cm³

Volume of atoms =

2 \times  \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

(∴ BCC, effective number of atom is 2)

Volume of atoms =

2 * \frac{4}{3} *3.14*(0.145*10^-^7cm)^3

= 2.55*10⁻²³cm³

\text {Atomic packing factor}=\frac{\text {volume occupied by atom}}{\text {volume of unit cell }}

=\frac{2.55*10^-^2^3}{1.08*10^-^2^2} \\\\=0.24

<h3>therefore, the atomic packing factor of Sn is 0.24</h3>
