A house is built with a granite countertop. The heat capacity of the countertop is 158.5 kJ/°C. A hot pan of water is placed on

the countertop, and 5000 J of heat energy is transferred into the countertop. By how much does the temperature of the countertop change?

The temperature of the countertop changes by 0.032 °C

The quantity of heat transferred to the countertop is given by

Q = CΔT where Q = quantity of heat transferred to the countertop = 5000 J = 5 kJ, C = heat capacity of the countertop = 158.5 kJ/°C and ΔT = temperature change of the countertop.

Since we require the temperature change of the countertop, we make ΔT subject of the formula.

So, ΔT = Q/C

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

ΔT = Q/C

ΔT = 5 kJ/158.5 kJ/°C

ΔT = 0.032 °C

So, the temperature of the countertop changes by 0.032 °C

How does a difference in 1 pH unit change in terms of H+ concentration? Ex: How does a pH of 3 differ from the pH of 4? Which on
yuradex [85]

Answer:

A difference of 1 would mean there is either x10 more or less depending on where you are starting.

Explanation:

The pH of 3 differs from 4 because the acidity of 3 is 10x higher than that of 4. This is due to how the scientific notation of 3 in relation to pH is 10x^-3 while that of 4 is 10^-4 so in terms of the stronger acid that would be the one with the pH of 3.

How many moles of tin atoms are in a pure tin cup with a mass of 37.6 g ?
Georgia [21]
Tin is an element called Stannum and has the symbol Sn. Molar mass is the mass of 1 mol of a compound, 1 mol of any substance is made of 6.022 x 10²³ units, these units could be atoms making up an element or molecules making up a compound. 
While the number of atoms making up 1 mol is the same for any element, the weight of 1 mol of substance varies from one another.
In tin(Sn) molar mass - 118.71 g/mol
In 118.71 g - there's 1 mol of tin
therefore in 37.6 g of tin - 1 x 37.6 / 118.71 = 0.31 mol 
In 37.6 g of tin, there's 0.31 mol
