When 318 cal of energy is added to 279g of copper at 14.8°C, the temperature increases to

Chemistry

Answer:

0.385J/g°C

Explanation:

Using the following formula;

Q = m. c. ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat (joules)

m = mass of substance (g)

c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

According to the provided information in this question;

Q = 318 cal

1 calorie = 4.184J

318 cal = 318 × 4.184 = 1330.512J

m = 279g

∆T = 27.2°C - 14.8°C = 12.4°C

Hence, using Q = m. c. ∆T

c = Q ÷ (m. ∆T)

c = 1330.512 ÷ (279 × 12.4)

c = 1330.512 ÷ 3459.6

c = 0.385

Therefore, the specific heat of copper is 0.385J/g°C

The electronegativity of an atom generally _______ going down columns and _______ going left to right across rows. An element li
blondinia [14]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The electronegativity of an atom is a chemical property of that atom that describes the tendency of the atom in question to attract a lone pair of electrons towards itself.

Across the periods, that is going from left to right on the periodic table, it is expected that there is an increase in the electronegativity of elements. Hence, there are more electronegative elements on the right hand side of the periodic table. Thus, we say chlorine or fluorine is more electronegative than either sodium and magnesium.

While it is expected to increase across the period, electronegativity decreases down the group. Hence, we know that chlorine is more electronegative than bromine while fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine. In fact, fluorine is the most electronegative element as it is the first member of the most electronegative group of elements.

Fluorine and oxygen are expected to undergo a covalent bond formation. Both are electron deficient and thus completes their electron orbits by entering into covalent bonding with each other

Consider the reaction below. 2H2 + O2 mc015-1.jpg 2H2O How many moles of water are produced from 13.35 mol of oxygen?
Leokris [45]

Answer: 26.7 moles

Explanation: 2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O

As can be seen from the balanced chemical equation 2 moles of hydrogen combine with 1 mole of oxygen to give two moles of water.

1 mole of oxygen give = 2 moles of water.

Thus 13.35 moles of oxygen give=\frac{2}{1}\times 13.35=26.7moles of water.
