Given:
Ma = 31.1 g, the mass of gold
Ta = 69.3 °C, the initial temperature of gold
Mw = 64.2 g, the mass of water
Tw = 27.8 °C, the initial temperature of water 

Because the container is insulated, no heat is lost to the surroundings.
Let T °C be the final temperature.

From tables, obtain
Ca = 0.129 J/(g-°C), the specific heat of gold
Cw = 4.18 J/(g-°C), the specific heat of water

At equilibrium, heat lost by the gold - heat gained by the water.
Heat lost by the gold is
Qa = Ma*Ca*(T - Ta)
      = (31.1 g)*(0.129 J/(g-°C)(*(69.3 - T °C)- 
      = 4.0119(69.3 - T) j
Heat gained by the water is
Qw = Mw*Cw*(T-Tw)
       = (64.2 g)*(4.18 J/(g-°C))*(T - 27.8 °C)
       = 268.356(T - 27.8)

Equate Qa and Qw.
268.356(T - 27.8) = 4.0119(69.3 - T)
272.3679T = 7738.32
T = 28.41 °C

Answer: 28.4 °C

explain how a metal with one valence electron compares with a metal with more than one valence electron
slamgirl [31]

Explanation:

A metal with one valence electron is highly reactive compared to those with more than one electron.

Atoms including those of metals reacts in order attain a stable electronic configuration just like those of noble gases.

An atom with one valence electron have just one electron in its valence shell.

  • Metals generally have large sizes.
  • when the electron in this shell is lost, the metal atom can then attain stability.
  • therefore, such atom will quickly want to combine with any other willing to accept the electron so that they can be stable.
  • Those with more than one electron will find it difficult to lose them.
  • It requires huge energy to remove such electrons compared to the ones with only one valence electron.
