Answer:

The specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is 0.223 \frac{J}{g*C}

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

There is a direct proportional relationship between heat and temperature. The constant of proportionality depends on the substance that constitutes the body as on its mass, and is the product of the specific heat by the mass of the body. So, the equation that allows calculating heat exchanges is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case, you know:

  • Q= 418.6 J
  • c= ?  
  • m= 75 g
  • ΔT= 25 C

Replacing:

418.6 J= c* 75 g* 25 C

Solving:

c=\frac{418.6 J}{75 g*25 C}

c= 0.223 \frac{J}{g*C}

<u><em>The specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is 0.223 </em></u>\frac{J}{g*C}<u><em></em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>

yarga [219]

Answer:

E) are electrically attracted to each other

Explanation:

Water molecule is polar because there is a difference in electronegativity values between hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen side of the molecule has a slight positive charge and the oxygen side is slightly negatively.  

Positively and negatively charged ends cause water molecules to attract one another and for this reason water shows the properties mentioned in the question: cohesion, high specific heat, and high heat of vaporization.

Which of the four substances listed will dissolve in water and why?
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Sugar, sodium chloride, and hydrophilic proteins are all substances that dissolve in water. Oils, fats, and certain organic solvents do not dissolve in water because they are hydrophobic.

And, water is called the "universal solvent" because it dissolves more substances than any other liquid. ... Water molecules have a polar arrangement of the oxygen and hydrogen atoms—one side (hydrogen) has a positive electrical charge and the other side (oxygen) had a negative charge.

I don't see any options so there i hope it helps .
