Answer:

823.7g

Explanation:

Using the formula as follows:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat (J)

m = mass of substance (g)

c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

Using the information given in this question as follows:

Q = 6,400 J

m = ?

c of soil = 0.840 J/g°C

∆T = 9.25°C

Using Q = mc∆T

m = Q ÷ c∆T

m = 6,400 ÷ (0.840 × 9.25)

m = 6400 ÷ 7.77

m = 823.7g

Answer:

There are 823.68 grams.

Explanation:

Calorimetry is responsible for measuring the amount of heat generated or lost in certain physical or chemical processes.

Between heat and temperature there is a relationship of direct proportionality. The constant of proportionality depends on the substance that constitutes the body and its mass, and is the product of the specific heat by the mass of the body. In summary, the amount of heat Q that receives or transmits a mass m of a substance with specific heat C to raise its temperature from T1 to T2 is given by the formula:

Q= C*m* (T2- T1) = C*m* ΔT

In this case:

  • Q= 6400 J
  • C= 0.840 \frac{J}{g*C}
  • m= ?
  • ΔT= 9.25 C

Replacing:

6400J= 0.840 \frac{J}{g*C} *m* 9.25 C

Solving:

m=\frac{6400 J}{0.840 \frac{J}{g*C} *9.25 C}

m=823.68 grams

<u><em>There are 823.68 grams.</em></u>

We observe a distant object in space and see that the spectral lines for hydrogen in the object's light appear at a shorter wave
MrMuchimi

Answer:

This tells us the radial velocity of the object and that the object is approaching or coming towards us.

Explanation:

Certain chemicals radiate with particular wavelengths or colors  when their temperature is raised or when they are charged electrically. Also observable are dark strokes separating the spectrum known as absorption lines

These spectral lines of chemicals are well known as stated above and from the phenomenon of Doppler effect, spectroscopy can be used to detect the movement of a distant object by the change of the emitted frequency of the wavelength

The Doppler effect is used in calculating the radial velocity of a distant object due to the fact that an approaching object compresses its emitted signal wavelength while a receding object has a longer wavelength than normal

rodikova [14]

Answer:

I believe it may be-

1. Series

2. Parallel

3. Parallel

4. Series

Explanation:

In a series circuit, electricity only has one path to follow while a parallel circuit has more than one path to follow.

Which of the following has a mass of 10.0 g?
Serjik [45]

Answer:

a.  0.119mol Kr

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we must understand that;

     Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of Kr  = 83.3g/mol

                        Ar = 40g/mol

                        He = 4g/mol

                        Ne = 20.18g/mol

a0.119 mol Kr               mass  = 0.119 x 83.3 = 9.9g

b 0.400 mol Ar             mass  = 0.4 x 40  = 16g

C 1.25 mol He               mass  = 1.25 x 4  = 5g

d 2.02 mol Ne              mass  = 2.02 x 20.18  = 40.8

Krypton is the answer

Which best describes a stock solution that is used in a dilution?
RSB [31]
A stock solution is a solution of a known concentration. Stock solution has a high concentration and therefore, the known amount of stock solution is used for preparing different concentrations, by diluting the same with the known amount of the solvent being used, such as water.
