1375 J of heat energy are added to a 50.0 g sample of copper, which increases temperature from 22.8 C to 94.2 C. Calculate the specific heat of copper.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.385 J/g°C

Explanation:

Using the following formula, the specific heat of an elemental substance can be calculated:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = quantity of heat (J)

m = mass (g)

c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

Based on the given information, Q = 1375J, m = 50g, initial temperature = 22.8°C, final temperature = 94.2°C, c =?

Q = m × c × ∆T

1375 = 50 × c × (94.2 - 22.8°C)

1375 = 50 × c × 71.4

1375 = 3570c

c = 1375/3570

c = 0.3851

c = 0.385 J/g°C

Isopentyl acetate is the molecule largely responsible for the aroma and taste of bananas. It is made up of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of a 3.256-g sample of isopentyl acetate produces 7.706 g CO2 and 3.156 g H2O. Using these results, what is the correct empirical formula for isopentyl acetate?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

7.706 g of CO₂ will contain 12 x 7.706 / 44 g of C

= 2.1 g of C .

This will be contained in 3.256 g of isopentyl acetate

3.156 g of H₂O will contain 2 x 3.156 / 18 g of H

= .351 g of H

This will be contained in 3.256 g of isopentyl acetate

Rest will be oxygen

amount of oxygen in 3.256 g of isopentyl acetate

= 3.256 - ( 2.1 + .351 )

= .805 g

ratio of C , H , O in isopentyl acetate

= 2.1 g : .351 g : .805 g

2.1 / 12 : .351 / 1 : 0.805 / 16 ratio of moles

= .175 : .351 : .05  ratio of moles

= 3.5 : 7.02: 1

= 7 : 14 : 2

If 0.484J of heat is added to 0.1372g of water, how much will the temperature increase?

0.263 °C
0.927 °c
0.843 °C
0.460 °C

Answers

Answer:

ΔT = 0.843 °C

Explanation:

Given data:

Heat added = 0.484 J

Mass of water = 0.1372 g

Temperature increase = ΔT = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Q = m.c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat absorbed or released

m = mass of given substance

c = specific heat capacity of substance

ΔT = change in temperature

Specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 j/g.°C

Now we will put the values in formula.

0.484 j = 0.1372 g × 4.184 j/g.°C× ΔT

0.484 j = 0.574j/°C× ΔT

ΔT = 0.484 j / 0.574j/°C

ΔT = 0.843 °C

Examine the layers of rock. How does layering provide evidence for determining geologic age?

Answers

Well I can’t see the rocks but, to determine the relative age of different rocks, geologists start with the assumption that unless something has happened, in a sequence of sedimentary rock layers, the newer rock layers will be on top of older ones.



Hope this helped! <3

Answer:

the deeper you go down in to the rock the older the fossils get.

Explanation:

layering can provide evidence because the deeper you go down in to the rock the older the fossils get. So when the scientists go in to the rock they can say what animals lived in that time and what animal was the oldest.

Emma draws a sketch of what happens to light as it moves through air and then into a tank of water. describe what happens to the speed of light as it enter the water.
Answer if you know, if you don't move on please! If you don't know comment not answer. Thank you!!

Answers

Answer:

The speed of light becomes slower in denser medium which is water in this case.

Explanation:

We know the lens law of Refraction which states

[tex]\frac{Sin(i)}{Sin(r)} =[/tex]  Refractive index of second medium /Refractive index of the first     medium

= Velocity of light in medium 1 (V1)/ velocity of light in medium 2 (V2)

When light rays fall from air medium into water which is a denser medium bending of light or change in the direction of light occurs which is knows as Refraction.

When refraction occurs speed of the light rays are also varied as we can see it from the Lenz's Law. suppose two light rays parallel to each other falling on the air-water interface at an angle , the first ray will reach the interface and bend about the normal and then the second ray. We also observe when light enters denser medium the speed of light becomes slower, also the bending of light when going from rarer to denser it bends towards normal of the surface and when it move from denser to rarer medium it moves away from the normal to the surface.

Lithium has two isotopes, lithium-6 weighing 6.015 amu (7.5% abundance), and lithium-7
weighing 7.016 amu (92.5% abundance). What is the atomic mass of lithium?
with calculations

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 6.941 but I dont really have the explanation

Explanation:

The atomic mass of lithium will be 6.9458 amu.

What is Atomic Mass ?

The mass of an atom of a chemical element expressed in atomic mass units.

It is approximately equivalent to the number of protons and neutrons in the atom (the mass number) or to the average number allowing for the relative abundances of different isotopes.

Calculation :

Consider 10000 atoms of Li ;

742 of them would have mass 6.02.9258 of them would have mass 7.02

.

Hence,

The total mass of these 10000 Li atoms would be ;

(742 × 6.02) + (9258 × 7.02) = 69458

∴ 1 Li atom on average would have mass =  69458 / 10000 = 6.9458 amu

Therefore, The atomic mass of lithium will be 6.9458 amu.

1. What is volume displacement? Why would you use this method?

2. What is density? What happens to things that are denser? What happens if they are less dense?

Answers

Answer:

1. The volume of displaced fluid is equivalent to the volume of an object fully immersed in a fluid or to that fraction of the volume below the surface of an object partially submerged in a liquid. The weight of the displaced portion of the fluid is equivalent to the magnitude of the buoyant force.

Why would you use this method?

So it can be used to accurately measure the volume of the human body and other oddly shaped objects by measuring the volume of fluid displaced when the object is submerged.

2. Density, mass of a unit volume of a material substance. The formula for density is d = M/V, where d is density, M is mass, and V is volume. Density is commonly expressed in units of grams per cubic centimetre.

What happens to things that are denser?

Students should realize that if an object weighs more than an equal volume of water, it is more dense and will sink, and if it weighs less than an equal volume of water, it is less dense and will float.

What happens if they are less dense?

The density of an object determines whether it will float or sink in another substance. An object will float if it is less dense than the liquid it is placed in. An object will sink if it is more dense than the liquid it is placed in.

Consider the equation:

Ca+O2→CaO

What needs to be done in order to balance the equation?

How can electronegativity be used to explain the reaction we see in terms of the numbers and types of bonded being formed in lithium?

Answers

Explanation:

Lithium is an electropositive element that readily loses electrons.

Oxygen is electronegative and it will readily accept electrons.

 Due to this significant electronegativity differences between the two species they form electrovalent or ionic bonds between them.

  2atoms of Li lose two electrons:

      Li  →  Li²⁺ + e⁻

             Lithium isoelectronic with helium

 For oxygen;

      O + 2e⁻   →  O²⁻

                          Oxygen is isoelectronic with Neon

Two ions of the lithium combines with the oxygen to form the bond;

                   4Li + O₂  →  2Li₂O

The electrostatic attraction between the two ions forms the ionic bond
