A 136 g sample of an unknown substance was heated from 20.0 °C to 40.0 °C. In the process the substance absorbed 2440 J of energ
Julli [10]

Answer:

Option A. The specific heat is 0.897 J/gºC, The Substance is aluminum.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the change in temperature of the substance. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T₁) = 20.0 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 40.0 °C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

ΔT = T₂ – T₁

ΔT = 40 – 20

ΔT = 20 °C

Finally, we shall determine the specific heat capacity of the substance. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (M) = 136 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 20 °C

Heat (Q) absorbed = 2440 J

Specific heat capacity (C) =?

Q = MCΔT

2440 = 136 × C × 20

2440 = 2720 × C

Divide both side by 2720

C = 2440 / 2720

C = 0.897 J/gºC

Comparing the specific heat capacity (i.e 0.897 J/gºC) of the substance with those in the table above, the substance is Aluminum.

Thus, option A gives the correct answer to the question.

Problem
postnew [5]

Answer:

C) Potassium, K, and calcium, Ca

Explanation:

Given pair of elements:

Ni and Cu

Potassium and Ca

Nitrogen and oxygen

Solution:

We know that number of protons and number of electrons are always equal and number of electron or number of proton is called atomic number.

Number of protons given elements:

Ni number of protons = 28

Copper number of protons  = 29

Combine number of protons = 57

K number of protons  = 19

Ca number of protons = 20

Combine number of protons = 39

Ni number of protons  = 7

O number of protons  = 8

Combine number of protons = 15

Thus,  option C is correct.
