Answer:

Lead shows the greatest temperature change upon absorbing 100.0 J of heat.

Explanation:

$Q=mc\Delte T$

Q = Energy gained or lost by the substance

m = mass of the substance

c = specific heat of the substance

ΔT = change in temperature

1) 10.0 g of copper

Q = 100.0 J (positive means that heat is gained)

m = 10.0 g

Specific heat of the copper = c = 0.385 J/g°C

$\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}$

$=\frac{100.0 J}{10 g\times 0.385J/g^oC}=25.97^oC$

2) 10.0 g of aluminium

Q = 100.0 J (positive means that heat is gained)

m = 10.0 g

Specific heat of the aluminium= c = 0.903 J/g°C

$\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}$

$=\frac{100.0 J}{10 g\times 0.903 J/g^oC}=11.07^oC$

3) 10.0 g of ethanol

Q = 100.0 J (positive means that heat is gained)

m = 10.0 g

Specific heat of the ethanol= c = 2.42 J/g°C

$\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}$

$=\frac{100.0 J}{10 g\times 2.42 J/g^oC}=4.13 ^oC$

4) 10.0 g of water

Q = 100.0 J (positive means that heat is gained)

m = 10.0 g

Specific heat of the water = c = 4.18J/g°C

$\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}$

$=\frac{100.0 J}{10 g\times 4.18 J/g^oC}=2.39 ^oC$

5) 10.0 g of lead

Q = 100.0 J (positive means that heat is gained)

m = 10.0 g

Specific heat of the lead= c = 0.128 J/g°C

$\Delta T=\frac{Q}{mc}$

$=\frac{100.0 J}{10 g\times 0.128 J/g^oC}=78.125^oC$

Lead shows the greatest temperature change upon absorbing 100.0 J of heat.

\The specific heat of aluminum is 0.21 cal g°C . How much heat is released when a 10 gram piece of aluminum foil is taken out of

atroni [7]

Answer: The amount of heat released is 84 calories.

Explanation:

The equation used to calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed, we use the equation:

$Q= m\times c\times \Delta T$

where,

Q = heat gained or released = ? Cal

m = mass of the substance = 10g

c = specific heat of aluminium = 0.21 Cal/g ° C

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\Delta T={\text{Change in temperature}}=(10-50)^oC=-40^oC$

$Q=10g\times 0.21Cal/g^oC\times-40^oC$

Q = -84 Calories

Hence, the amount of heat released is 84 calories.

Alisiya [41]

A & C.
much debated nuclear power plants uses nuclear fission power stations, with uranium-235 as the source if fission. It is "non-renewable" according to the Energy Information Administration.

Here is the information: A 1.2516 gram sample of a mixture of CaCO3 and Na2SO4 was analyzed by dissolving the sample and adding

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

93,32 % (w/w)

Explanation:

The Ca²⁺ of CaCO₃ was completely precipitate to CaC₂O₄ that results in H₂C₂O₄. The titration of this one is:

3H₂C₂O₄ + 2H⁺ + MnO₄⁻ → Mn²⁺ + 4H₂O + 6CO₂

As you required 35,62mL of 0,1092M MnO₄⁻, the moles of H₂C₂O₄ are:

0,03562L× $\frac{0,1092M}{L}$ =

3,890x10⁻³mol of MnO₄⁻× $\frac{3molH_{2}C_{2}O_{4}}{1mol MnO_{4}^-}$ = 0,01167 mol of H₂C₂O₄

The number of moles of CaCO₃ are the same number of moles of H₂C₂O₄ because every Ca²⁺ was converted in CaC₂O₄ that was converted in H₂C₂O₄. That means: 0,01167 mol of CaCO₃

0,01167 mol of CaCO₃ are:

0,01167 mol of CaCO₃× $\frac{100,0869g}{1mol}$ = 1,168 g of CaCO₃

As the mass of the initial mixture is 1,2516 g, the percentage by weight of CaCO₃ is:

$\frac{1,168g}{1,2516g}$ ×100 = 93,32 % (w/w)

I hope it helps!
