If the same amount of heat is added to 25.0 g of each of the metals, which are all at the same initial temperature, which metal

will have the highest temperature?
Specific Heats of Metals:
Metal Specific Heat
Copper 0.385 J/(g°C)
Magnesium 1.02 J/(g°C)
Tungsten 0.134 J/(g°C)
Silver 0.237 J/(g°C)
Bismuth 0.123 J/(g°C)

Answer:

The bismuth sample.

Explanation:

The specific heat c of a substance (might not be a metal) is the amount of heat required for heating a unit mass of this substance by unit temperature (e.g., \rm 1\; ^{\circ}C.) The formula for specific heat is:

\displaystyle c = \frac{Q}{m \cdot \Delta T},

where

  • Q is the amount of heat supplied.
  • m is the mass of the sample.
  • \Delta T is the increase in temperature.

In this question, the value of Q (amount of heat supplied to the metal) and m (mass of the metal sample) are the same for all four metals. To find \Delta T (change in temperature,) rearrange the equation:

\displaystyle c \cdot \Delta T = \frac{Q}{m},

\displaystyle \Delta T = \frac{Q}{c \cdot m}.

In other words, the change in temperature of the sample, \Delta T can be expressed as a fraction. Additionally, the specific heat of sample, c, is in the denominator of that fraction. Hence, the value of the fraction would be the largest for sample with the smallest specific heat.

Make sure that all the specific heat values are in the same unit. Find the one with the smallest specific heat: bismuth (\rm 0.123 \; J \cdot g\cdot \,^{\circ}C^{-1}.) That sample would have the greatest increase in temperature. Since all six samples started at the same temperature, the bismuth sample would also have the highest final temperature.

What is the effect of high activation energy on a chemical reaction?
alex41 [277]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

It makes the reaction harder to start

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Activation energy is minimum amount of energy that is required for a reaction to start. Activation energy determines the rate of a chemical reaction such that the higher the activation energy, the lower the rate of chemical reaction and vice versa.</u></em>
  • The source of activation energy needed to push chemical reactions forward is obtained from the surroundings. Catalyst speed up chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy. Therefore, catalysis is the increase in the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering its activation energy.

Nuclear power plants produce energy using fission. One common fuel, uranium-235, produces energy through the fission reaction 23
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

mass of U-235  = 15.9 g (3 sig. figures)

Explanation:

1 atom can produce -------------------------> 3.20 x 10^-11 J energy

x atoms can produce ----------------------> 1.30 x 10^12 J energy

x = 1.30 x 10^12 / 3.20 x 10^-11

x = 4.06 x 10^22 atoms

1 mol ----------------------> 6.023 x 10^23 atoms

y mol ----------------------> 4.06 x 10^22 atoms

y = 0.0675 moles

mass of U-235 = 0.0675 x 235 = 15.8625

mass of U-235  = 15.9 g (3 sig. figures)
