If the mass of a sample of Mg is 0.500 g and is placed in 100.0 g of HCl, the heat gained is 546.5 J. What is the change in temp

Answer:

1.36 K

Explanation:

We have the following data:

The heat gained by HCl is calculated as:

heat = m x Sh x ΔT

where m is the mass of HCl (100.0 g), Sh is the specific heat of HCl (4.017 J/K.g) and ΔT is the change in temperature. We introduce the data in the mathematical expression to calculate ΔT as follows:

ΔT = heat/(m x Sh) = 546.5 J/(100.0 g x 4.017 J/K.g) = 1.36 K

Therefore, the change in temperature is 1.36 K.

What enables Dna to have so many variations with only 4 chemicals?
elena-s [515]
There are many combinations because it is not all about the number of chemicals, but also about the size of the strand. The longer the strand the more combinations there are and more variations and various lengths provide various results.

Suppose two scientists perform the same experiment separately, but their results are very different. What could they do to find
Lynna [10]
They should identify the confounding variable.

Some condition that is not examined by the scientist might alter the experiment result. That condition is called confounding variable. If the method of the experiment same but result is very different, there should be unidentified confounding variable. It could be air humidity, temperature, ventilation, light, time of the year or anything that might not be seen by naked eye.
Try to redo the experiment with controlling variable as much as possible.

A cat travels 240 meters in 30 seconds, and a sprinter travels 100 meters in 9.5 seconds. Which is traveling faster, the cat or
joja [24]

Answer:

The cat

Explanation:

1) You need to find how many meters per second each thing is sprinting, so you can divide the meters by seconds for each.

\frac{240}{30} = 8 m/s\\\frac{100}{9.5} = around  10.5 m/s

2) Per second, the sprinter is able to achieve 8 meters, while the cat can do around 10.5 meters. 10.5 is greater than 8, making the cat faster than the sprinter.

What orbital is represented by the transition metals in period four
andreev551 [17]

The name transition metal refers to the position in the periodic table of elements. The transition elements represent the successive addition of electrons to the d atomic orbitals of the atoms. In this way, the transition metals represent the transition between group 2 (2A) elements and group 13 (3A) elements.
