Neko [114]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The noble gases have 8 valence electrons in their outermost electron shell. In other words, they have full out shells. These elements are highly stable.

What makes a compound a base?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

C.) It dissolves into Hydroxide ions in water (OH-)

Explanation:

A.) is incorrect because acids dissolve into hydrogen ions, not bases.

B.) is incorrect because acids have a pH lower than 7. Bases have a pH higher than 7.

C.) is correct because this is the defining characteristic of bases.

D.) is incorrect because bases can dissolve oils. This means they can be mixed.

g 32.53 g of a solid is heated to 100.oC and added to 50.0 g of water in a coffee cup calorimeter and the contents are allowed t
Radda [10]

Answer:

0.886 J/g.°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the heat absorbed by the water

We will use the following expression

Q = c × m × ΔT

where,

  • Q: heat
  • c: specific heat capacity
  • m: mass
  • ΔT: change in the temperature

Q(water) = c(water) × m(water) × ΔT(water)

Q(water) = 4.184 J/g.°C × 50.0 g × (34.4 °C - 25.36 °C) = 1.89 × 10³ J

According to the law of conservation of energy, the sum of the energy lost by the solid and the energy absorbed by the water is zero.

Q(water) + Q(solid) = 0

Q(solid) = -Q(water) =  -1.89 × 10³ J

Step 2: Calculate the specific heat capacity of the solid

We will use the following expression.

Q(solid) = c(solid) × m(solid) × ΔT(solid)

c(solid) = Q(solid) / m(solid) × ΔT(solid)

c(solid) = (-1.89 × 10³ J) / 32.53 g × (34.4 °C - 100. °C) = 0.886 J/g.°C
