Answer:
31.9 °C
Explanation:
The formula for the heat q absorbed by an object is
q = mCΔT where ΔT = (T₂ - T₁)
Data:
q = 12.35 cal
m = 19.75 g
C = 0.125 cal°C⁻¹g⁻¹
T₂ = 37.0 °C
Calculations
(a) Calculate ΔT
q = mCΔT
12.35 cal = 19.25 g × 0.125 cal°C⁻¹g⁻¹ × ΔT
12.35 = 2.406ΔT °C⁻¹
ΔT = 12.35/(2.406 °C⁻¹) = 5.13 °C
(b) Calculate T₂
ΔT = T₂ - T₁
T₁ = T₂ - ΔT = 37.0 °C - 5.13 °C = 31.9 °C
The original temperature was 31.9 °C.
The mass number = protons + neutrons. Bromine has a mass number of 80<span> and 35 protons so </span>80<span>-35 = </span>45<span> neutrons. b) How many electrons does the neutral atom of bromine have? The neutral atom of bromine has 35 electrons because the number of electrons equals the number of protons.</span>
Sorry if i’m late but your answer should be infrared
Nonane (b) has the highest melting point.
-----------------------------
A caveat: I'm assuming that we're dealing with the straight-chain isomers of these alkanes (specifically pentane and nonane). The straight-chain isomer of pentane (<em>n</em>-pentane, CH3-[CH2]3-CH3) has a melting point of -129.8 °C; the straight-chain isomer of nonane (<em>n-</em>nonane, CH3-[CH2]7-CH3) has a melting point of -53.5 °C. The pattern holds as you go down (or up): The more carbon atoms, the higher the melting point. So, in decreasing order of melting points here, you'd have the following: nonane > pentane > butane > ethane.
However, one structural isomer of pentane, neopentane, has a melting point of -16.4 °C, which is <em>higher </em>that the melting point of <em>n</em>-nonane despite neopentane having the same molecular formula as its straight-chain isomer. Of course, you're not to blame for coming up with this question; this is just some extra info to keep in mind.
