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>

Which electron configuration represents the electrons of an atom in an excited state? * 2-3 2-7-1 2-8 2-8-1​
Lemur [1.5K]

2-7-1

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Electrons can move the shell up or down by releasing energy or absorbing energy  

Excited electrons show higher electron transfer to the shell by absorbing energy  

So it can be concluded that there are 2 conditions:  

Ground state is the state of electrons filling shell with the lowest energy levels.  

Excited state is the state of electrons which occupies a higher energy level  

The state of excited electrons can be seen from the presence of electrons which do not fill the skin completely but fill the skin afterward  

2-7-1

From its 8 electron configuration, filling 3 shells, 2 electrons in the firs shell, 7 electrons in the second shell and 1 electron in the third shell

the electrons in the third shell should fill the electrons in the second shell first according to Aufbau rule (lower energy shells)

\tt  1s^22s^22p^4\rightarrow ground~state\\\\1s^22s^22p^33s^1\rightarrow excited~state

What volume of 0.194 MNa3PO4 solution is necessary to completely react with 85.5 mL of 0.109 MCuCl2 ?
ira [324]

Answer:

35.9 ml

Explanation:

Start with the balanced equation:

3CuCl2(aq)+2Na3PO4(aq)→Cu3(PO4)2(s)+6NaCl(aq)

This tells us that 3 moles of CuCI2 react with 2 moles Na3PO4-

∴  1 mole CuCl2 will react with 2/3 moles Na3PO4

We know that concentration = moles/volume i.e:

c= n/v

∴n=c×v

∴nCuCl2=0.107×91.01000=9.737×10−3

I divided by 1000 to convert ml to L

∴nNa3PO4=9.737×10−3×23=6.491×10−3

v=nc=6.491×10−30.181=35.86×10−3L

∴v=35.86ml

Consider four different samples: aqueous LiBr , molten LiBr , aqueous AgBr , and molten AgBr . Current run through each sample p
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

a) Aqueous LiBr = Hydrogen Gas

b) Aqueous AgBr = solid Ag

c) Molten LiBr = solid Li

c) Molten AgBr = Solid Ag

Explanation:

a) Aqueous LiBr

This sample produces Hydrogen gas, because the H+ (conteined in the water) has a reduction potential higher than the Li+ from the salt. Therefore the hydrogen cation will reduce instead of the lithium one and form the gas.

b) Aqueous AgBr

This sample produces Solid Ag, because the Ag+ has a reduction potential higher than the H+ from the water. Therefore the silver cation will reduce instead of the hydrogen one and form the solid.

c) Molten LiBr

In a molten binary salt like LiBr there is only one cation present in the cathod. In this case the Li+, so it will reduce and form solid Li.  

c) Molten AgBr

The same as the item above: there is only one cation present in the cathod. In this case the Ag+, so it will reduce and form solid Ag.
