Solids maintain their shape, whereas fluids do not because <span>the molecules in solids maintain a regular pattern and only vibrate, or move very slowly. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option or option "d". I hope the answer has come to your help.</span>
Answer:
-26.125 kj
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of water = 250.0 g
Initial temperature = 30.0°C
Final temperature = 5.0°C
Amount of energy lost = ?
Solution:
Formula:
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = amount of heat absorbed or released
m = mass of given substance
c = specific heat capacity of substance
ΔT = change in temperature
ΔT = T2 - T1
ΔT = 5.0°C - 30.0°C
ΔT = -25°C
Specific heat of water is 4.18 j/g.°C
Now we will put the values in formula.
Q = m.c. ΔT
Q = 250.0 g × 4.18 j/g.°C × -25°C
Q = -26125 j
J to kJ
-26125 j ×1 kj /1000 j
-26.125 kj
We can calculate how long the decay by using the half-life equation. It is expressed as:
A = Ao e^-kt
<span>where A is the amount left at t years, Ao is the initial concentration, and k is a constant.
</span><span>From the half-life data, we can calculate for k.
</span>
1/2(Ao) = Ao e^-k(30)
<span>k = 0.023
</span>
0.04Ao = Ao e^0.023(t)
<span>t = 140 sec</span>
