Answer:

c=0.127\ J/g^{\circ} C

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the sample, m = 275 g

It required 10.75 kJ of heat to change its temperature from 21.2 °C to its melting temperature, 327.5 °C.

We need to find the specific heat of the metal. The heat required by a metal sample is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T

c is specific heat of the metal

c=\dfrac{Q}{m\Delta T}\\\\c=\dfrac{10.75\times 10^3\ J}{275\times (327.5 -21.2)}\\\\=0.127\ J/g^{\circ} C

So, the specific heat of metal is 0.127\ J/g^{\circ} C.

Which element has a greater electronegativity?<br> fluorine (9) or radium (88)
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Fluorine

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Periodic Trends
  • Electronegativity - the tendency for an element to attract an electron to itself
  • Z-effective and Coulomb's Law, Forces of Attraction

Explanation:

The Periodic Trend for Electronegativity is up and to the right of the Periodic Table.

Fluorine is Element 9 and has 9 protons. Radium is Element 88 and has 88 protons. Therefore, Radium has a bigger Zeff than Flourine.

However, since Radium is in Period 7 while Fluorine is in Period 2, Radium has more core e⁻ than Fluorine does. This will create a much larger shielding effect, causing Radium's outermost e⁻ to have less FOA between them. Fluorine, since it has less core e⁻, the FOA between the nucleus and outershell e⁻ will be much stronger.

Therefore, Fluorine would attract an electron more than Radium, thus bringing us to the conclusion that Fluorine has a higher electronegativity.
