Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 1.87 \J/g \textdegree C}}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the specific heat capacity of a liquid. We are given the heat added, the mass, and the change in temperature, so we will use the following formula.

q= mc\Delta T

The heat added (q) is 47.1 Joules. The mass (m) of the liquid is 14.0 grams. The specific heat (c) is unknown. The change in temperature (ΔT) is 1.80 °C.

  • q= 47.1 J
  • m= 14.0 g
  • ΔT= 1.80 °C

Substitute these values into the formula.

47.1 \ J = (14.0 \ g) * c * (1.80 \textdegree C)

Multiply the 2 numbers in parentheses on the right side of the equation.

47.1 \ J = (14.0 \ g * 1.80 \textdegree C)*c

47.1 \ J = (25.2 \ g*\textdegree C) *c

We are solving for the heat capacity of the liquid, so we must isolate the variable c. It is being multiplied by 25.2 grams * degrees Celsius. The inverse operation of multiplication is division, so we divide both sides of the equation by (25.2 g * °C).

\frac {47.1 \ J}{(25.2 g *\textdegree C)} = \frac {(25.2 g *\textdegree C)*c}{{(25.2 g *\textdegree C)}}

\frac {47.1 \ J}{(25.2 g *\textdegree C)} =c

1.869047619 \ J/g *\textdegree C = c

The original measurements of heat, mass, and temperature all have 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found that is the hundredth place. The 9 in the thousandth place to the right tells us to round the 6 up to a 7.

1.87 \ J/ g * \textdegree C =c

The heat capacity of the liquid is approximately 1.87 J/g°C.

For the overall reaction below, which of the following is the correctly written rate law? Overall reaction: O3(g)+2NO2(g)→N2O5(g
zavuch27 [327]

Answer: Rate=k[O_3][NO_2]^2

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

O_3(g)+NO_2(g)\rightarrow NO_3(g)+O_2(g)   slow

NO_3(g)+NO_2(g)\rightarrow N_2O_5(g)   fast

To determine the net chemical equation, we will simply add the above two equations, we get:

O_3(g)+2NO_2(g)\rightarrow N_2O_5(g)+O_2(g)

Rate=k[O_3][NO_2]^2

Order with respect to O_3 is 1 and Order with respect to NO_2 is 2.

Thus the rate law will be:  Rate=k[O_3][NO_2]^2

List the subshells that hold the 25 electrons in a<br> manganese atom in order of increasing energy
jonny [76]

Answer:

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d5

Explanation:

According to the Aufbau principle, electrons are filled in orbitals in order of increasing energy. The energy of orbitals in the electronic configuration of manganese increases from left to right, hence 3d orbital is much greater in energy than a 3p orbital.

The arrangement of orbitals in order of increasing energy is shown in the answer above.

Adi loves the smell of lavender, so she decides to press a few petals of the flower until they release a few drops of oil. She w
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

What Adi failed to realize is that the oily substance that was obtained from lavender consists of a mixture of substances. It is not only the required  fragrance that is present in the extract.

This experiment will not work because those other components in the mixture may be erroneously identified when they show up in the mass spectrum of the extract and may be mistaken for the fragrance in question.

Hence the experiment will not work because; if some kind of separation method is not used to identify other impurities in the oil, many other substances may be mistaken for the actual fragrance.
