Answer:0.8742j/g°C
Explanation: SOLUTION
GIVEN
length of bar=1.25m
mass 382g
temperature= 20°C to 288°C
Q=89300J
Specific Heat Capacity will be calculated using
Q=mC∆T
where
C = specific heat capacity
Q = heat
m = mass
Δ T = change in temperature
C=Q/ m∆T
=89300/382X(288-20.6)
=0.8742j/g°C
The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
The half-life for the decay of carbon-14 is 5.73x10^3 years. Suppose the activity due to the radioactive decay of the carbon-14 in a tiny sample of an artifact made of woodfrom an archeological dig is measured to be 2.8x10^3 Bq. The activity in a similiar-sized sample of fresh wood is measured to be 3.0x10^3 Bq. Calculate the age of the artifact. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.
Answer:
570 years
Explanation:
The activity of the fresh sample is taken as the initial activity of the wood sample while the activity measured at a time t is the present activity of the wood artifact. The time taken for the wood to attain its current activity can be calculated from the formula shown in the image attached. The activity at a time t must always be less than the activity of a fresh wood sample. Detailed solution is found in the image attached.
Answer:
6.564×10¹⁶ fg.
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass of beaker = 76.9 g
Mass of beaker + salt = 142.54 g
Mass of salt in fg =?
Next, we shall determine the mass of the salt in grams (g). This can be obtained as follow:
Mass of beaker = 76.9 g
Mass of beaker + salt = 142.54 g
Mass of salt =?
Mass of salt = (Mass of beaker + salt) – (Mass of beaker)
Mass of salt = 142.54 – 76.9
Mass of salt = 65.64 g
Finally, we shall convert 65.64 g to femtograms (fg) as illustrated below:
Recall:
1 g = 1×10¹⁵ fg
Therefore,
65.64 g = 65.64 g × 1×10¹⁵ fg / 1g
65.64 g = 6.564×10¹⁶ fg
Therefore, the mass of the salt is 6.564×10¹⁶ fg.
To balance chemical equations, you should just remember that the number of atoms of an element in the reactant side must be equal to the number of atoms of the same element in the product side. The order of the substances doesn't matter. What is important that the equation balances.
