Answer:

Copper sulphate is an acidic salt: It is the product of the reaction between a weak copper base and a strong acid , H2SO4

Litmus has a red colour in acidic solutions:

Conclusion: Acidic copper sulphate solution turns blue litmus to red

Baking soda is a basic salt : It is the reaction product of a weak acid , CO2 and a strong base , NaOH

Litmus has a blue colour in basic solutions:

Conclusion: basic baking soda solution turns red litmus to blue

Answer:

a. qm = 627.3 J

b. qw = 627.3 J

c. C₂ = 227.4 J/kg.°C

Explanation:

a.

Since, the calorimeter is completely insulated. Therefore,

Heat Lost by Metal = Heat Gained by water

qm = qw

qm = m₁C₁ΔT₁

where,

qm = heat lost by metal = ?

m₁ = mass of water = (density)(volume) = (1000 kg/m³)(100 mL)(10⁻⁶ m³/1 mL)

m₁ = 0.1 kg

C₁ = specific heat capacity of water = 4182 J/kg.°C

ΔT₁ = Change in Temperature of Water = 19.1°C - 17.6°C = 1.5°C

Therefore,

qm = (0.1 kg)(4182 J/kg.°C)(1.5°C)

<u>qm = 627.3 J</u>

<u></u>

b.

Since,

qm = qw

<u>qw = 627.3 J</u>

<u></u>

c.

qm = m₂C₂ΔT₂

where,

m₂ = mass of metal = 38.1 g = 0.0381 kg

C₂ = specific heat capacity of metal = ?

ΔT₂ = Change in Temperature of metal = 90°C - 17.6°C = 72.4°C

Therefore,

627.3 J = (0.0381 kg)(C₂)(72.4°C)

(627.3 J)/(0.0381 kg)(72.4°C) = C₂

<u>C₂ = 227.4 J/kg.°C</u>

Pls big test What are openings in the ground that release energy from deep inside the planet? * 1clouds 2volcanoes 3sun 4hurrica
9966 [12]

Answer:

2. Volcanoes

Explanation:

The interior of some planets (e.g earth) contains some hot flowing fluids called lava which has a very high thermal energy. The lava as a means of escaping the confinement within the planet, burst out by creating an opening through the ground to the surface of the planet to release the energy (lava).

This process in which the energy is released to the surface of the planet is termed volcanic eruptions. Which occurs majorly in some susceptible regions of the earth.

The openings in the ground that release energy from deep inside the planet is thus called volcanoes.
