In a closed system, heat should be conserved which means that the heat produced in the calorimeter is equal to the heat released by the combustion reaction. We calculate as follows:

Heat of the combustion reaction = mC(T2-T1)
                                                          = 1 (1.50) (41-21)
                                                          = 30 kJ

Answer:

30 kJ is released during the combustion of this sample.

Explanation:

Heat released during combustion = Heat gained by calorimeter

Mass of calorimeter= m = 1.00 kg=1000 g

Change in temperature of the calorimeter = ΔT = 41.0 °C - 21.0 °C =20.0 °C

Specific heat if calorimeter = c = 1.50 J/g °C

Heat released during combustion = Q

Q=mc\Delta T

Q=1000.00 g\times 1.50 J/g ^oC\times 20.0 ^oC=30,000 =30 kJ

30 kJ is released during the combustion of this sample.

Are these radiation, conduction, or convection?
irakobra [83]
Hey! 1) Convection [Warm water is less dense, so it rises.] 2) Conduction [The metal skewer is heated by the fire, and it is directly touching your hand. The metal skewer transfers heat to your hand through conduction.] 3) Conduction [The rock is directly touching you, so it transfers heat to you through conduction.] 4) Convection [Convection causes weather systems because hot air sinks and cold air sinks] 5) Convection [The hot air rises because it is less dense while the cold air sinks because it is denser.] ~Hope this helped~

How many pounds of manganese are in 1.261 tons of Mn2O3?
Alina [70]

Answer:

2000pound

Explanation:

Manganese metal is produced from the manganese(III) oxide, Mn2O3, which is found in manganite, a manganese ore. The manganese is reduced from its +3 oxidation state in Mn2O3 to the zero oxidation state of the uncharged metal by reacting the Mn2O3 with a reducing agent such as aluminum or carbon. How many pounds of manganese are in 1.261 tons of Mn2O3? (1 ton = 2000 pounds)

About 40 different substances called organophosphorus compounds are registered in the United States as insecticides. They are considered less damaging to the environment than some other insecticides because they breakdown relatively rapidly in the environment. The first of these organophosphorus insecticides to be produced was tetraethyl pyrophosphate, TEPP, which is 33.11% carbon, 6.95% hydrogen, 38.59% oxygen, and 21.35% phosphorus. It has a molecular mass of 290.190.

The emission spectrum of hydrogen shows discrete, bright, colored lines. Which characteristic of the Bohr model is best supporte
natali 33 [55]
The characteristic of the Bohr model that would best support his observation is this assumption: "The energy of the electron in an orbit is proportional to its distance from the nucleus. The further the electron is from the nucleus, the more energy it has." The discrete, bright, colored lines might represent the electrons and its distance from the nucleus. The lights are caused by the energy it has.
