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>

The density of water at 400C is 0.992 g/mL What is the volume of 27.0 g of water at this temperature?
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Volume of water at this temperature is 27.2 mL

Explanation:

We know that density=\frac{mass}{volume}

Here density of water is 0.992 g/mL

Here mass of water is 27.0 g

So volume=\frac{mass}{density}

                         = \frac{27.0g}{0.992g/mL}

                         = 27.2 mL
