Answer:
A piece of unknown solid substance weighs 437.2 g, and requires 8460 J to increase its temperature from 19.3 °C to 68.9 °C.
What is the specific heat of the substance?
If it is one of the substances found in Table 8.1.1, what is its likely identity?

The balanced equation for the reaction is
AgNO3 + MgCl2 ==> AgCl + Mg(NO3)2
So it's obvious that for each Mg ion, you'll get 1 AgCl molecule as a product. Now calculate the molar mass of AgCl, starting with looking up the atomic weights.
Atomic weight silver = 107.8682
Atomic weight chlorine = 35.453
Molar mass AgCl = 107.8682 + 35.453 = 143.3212 g/mol
Now how many moles were produced?
0.1183 g / 143.3212 g/mol = 0.000825419 mol
So we had 0.000825419 moles of MgCl2 in the sample of 50.0 ml. Since concentration is defined as moles per liter, do the division.
0.000825419 / 0.0500 = 0.016508374 mol/L = 0.016508374 m
Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 0.0165 m</span>
