Answer:</h3>
0.387 J/g°C
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
- To calculate the amount of heat absorbed or released by a substance we need to know its mass, change in temperature and its specific heat capacity.
- Then to get quantity of heat absorbed or lost we multiply mass by specific heat capacity and change in temperature.
- That is, Q = mcΔT
in our question we are given;
Mass of copper, m as 95.4 g
Initial temperature = 25 °C
Final temperature = 48 °C
Thus, change in temperature, ΔT = 23°C
Quantity of heat absorbed, Q as 849 J
We are required to calculate the specific heat capacity of copper
Rearranging the formula we get
c = Q ÷ mΔT
Therefore,
Specific heat capacity, c = 849 J ÷ (95.4 g × 23°C)
= 0.3869 J/g°C
= 0.387 J/g°C
Therefore, the specific heat capacity of copper is 0.387 J/g°C
The electron geometry of a water molecule is tetrahedral even though the molecular geometry is bent.
As water molecule hybridisation is sp³ that provides it a electron geometry tetrahedral but due to presence of 2 lone pairs and 2 bond pairs its molecular geometry is bent.
The hybridisation sp³ makes electron geometry of a water molecule tetrahedral but the presence of 2 lone pairs makes its molecular geometry bent
Answer:
Postassium bisulphate - KHSO4 - can be used as an food preservative to protect the food from micro-organisms.
Answer:
(1) Bromination, (2) E2 elimination and (3) epoxidation
Explanation:
- In the first step, -OH group in cyclopentanol is replaced by more facile leaving group Br by treating cyclopentanol with
- In the second step, E2 elimination in presence of strong base e.g. NaOEt/EtOH produce cyclopentene
- In the third step, treatment of cyclopentene with mCPBA produces 1,2-epoxycyclopentane
- Full reaction scheme has been shown below
