Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 333 \ grams}}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the mass of a sample of metal. We are given temperatures, specific heat, and joules of heat, so we will use the following formula.

Q= mc \Delta T

The heat added is 4500.0 Joules. The mass of the sample is unknown. The specific heat is 0.4494 Joules per gram degree Celsius. The difference in temperature is found by subtracting the initial temperature from the final temperature.

  • ΔT= final temperature - initial temperature

The sample was heated <em>from </em> 58.8 degrees Celsius to 88.9 degrees Celsius.

  • ΔT= 88.9 °C - 58.8 °C = 30.1 °C

Now we know three variables:

  • Q= 4500.0 J
  • c= 0.4494 J/g°C
  • ΔT = 30.1 °C

Substitute these values into the formula.

4500.0 \ J = m (0.4494 \ J/g \textdegree C)(30.1 \textdegree C)

Multiply on the right side of the equation. The units of degrees Celsius cancel.

4500.0 \ J = m (13.52694 J/g)

We are solving for the mass, so we must isolate the variable m. It is being multiplied by 13.52694 Joules per gram. The inverse operation of multiplication is division, so we divide both sides by 13.52694 J/g

\frac {4500.0 \ J }{13.52694 J/g}= \frac{m (13.52694 J/g)}{13.52694 J/g}

The units of Joules cancel.

\frac {4500.0 \ J }{13.52694 J/g}= m

332.6694729 \ g =m

The original measurements have 5,4, and 3 significant figures. Our answer must have the least number or 3. For the number we found, that is the ones place. The 6 in the tenth place tells us to round the 2 up to a 3.

333 \ g \approx m

The mass of the sample of metal is approximately <u>333 grams.</u>

An analytical chemist has determined by measurements that there are 96.5 moles of carbon in a sample of acetic acid. how many mo
Nadya [2.5K]
The formula of acetic acid is CH3COOH => C2H4O2.

So, the acetic acid has the same number of atoms of carbon (C) than of oxygen (O).

Therefore, the sample that contains 96.5 moles of carbon, will contain also 96.5 moles of O.

Answer: 96.5 moles of oxygen.

Which is heavier einsteinium (Es) or europium (Eu)
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Einsteinium is heavier

Explanation:

Atomic weight is what we are referring to when figuring out how heavy an element is and is measured in amu (atomic mass units)

(This is also the same as the molar mass how heavy 6.022 x 10^23 atoms of a substance or element is which is measured in grams)

The atomic weight of an element can be found on a periodic table.

Europium has an atomic mass of approximately 152 amu (atomic mass units)

Einsteinium has an atomic mass of approximately 252 amu.

Einsteinium has a higher atomic weight so it's heavier.

There's another easier way of going about it where you don't even have to think about the actual number and basically just look at the element's atomic number and position on the periodic table.

Eu is 63

Es is 99

As the atomic number increases on the periodic table this means it's number of protons is greater.

Protons lie in the nucleus which has most of the atom's weight so the more protons the heavier it is.

Einsteinium has a higher atomic number meaning it has more protons so we can assume it's the heavier one.

Hope this helps!
