The heat cause 300g water temperature increase from 20 to 26 celcius. The heat transferred would be: 300g * (26 °C -20 °C) *4.2 joule/gram °C= 7560J
The unknown substance is added to the water, so its final temperature should be the same as the water. The calculation would be:
7560J= 124g * (100-26)* specific heat
specific heat= 7560J / 124g / 74 °C= 0.8238 J/gram °C
Conversion of mole to grams
k in mole = 1 mole/ atomic mass
K in mole =1/ 39.0983 g/mole
= 0.255765 g/mole
converting 40 grams of K
K 40 grams x [ 1 mole/ 39.0983 grams] = 1.0230623 mole
There are 1.0230623 moles of K in 40 K of Potassium
Answer:
liquid
Explanation:
Gas has very low density but spreads fast. Solid has high density.
