Answer:

The specific heat of the unknown metal is 0.333 cal/g°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

1.67 kcal of energy is required

Mass of the metal = 79.2 grams

Temperature rise = 63.3 °C

Step 2: Calculate specific heat of the metal

Q = m*c*ΔT

⇒ with Q = the energy required = 1.67 kcal = 1670 cal

⇒ with m = the mass of the metal = 79.2 grams

⇒ with c = the specific heat of the metal = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with ΔT = the temperature rise = 63.3 °C

1670 cal = 79.2 grams * c * 63.3 °C

c = 0.333 cal/g*°C

The specific heat of the unknown metal is 0.333 cal/g°C

Answer:

The answer to your question is       C = 0.000333 kcal/g°C

or  C = 0.333 cal/g°C

Explanation:

Data

 Q = 1.67 kcal

 mass = 79.2 g

 ΔT = 63.3°C

Formula

 Q = mCΔT

Solve for C

 C = Q/mΔT

Substitution

  C = 1.67/(79.2 x 63.3)

Simplification

   C = 1.67 / 5013.4

Result

    C = 0.000333 kcal/g°C

or  C = 0.333 cal/g°C

An increase in temperature will effect vapor pressure by:
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer: Increases.

Explanation:  As the temperature of a liquid or solid increases its vapor pressure also increases. Conversely, vapor pressure decreases as the temperature decreases.

Describe how to use Le Chatelier’s principle to predict the possible ways a chemical system can respond to changes.
Andre45 [30]
Le Chatelier's principle simply explains how equilibria change as you change the conditions of a reaction. If you have a reaction that is at equilibrium lets say (A + 2B <--> C + D) by removing C or D we can drive the reaction forward and products more products. I can provide a more in-depth description if needed.

The double bond between carbon and oxygen is similar to an alkene C-C, except that C o is: a) shorter and weaker. b) shorter and
mina [271]

Answer:

the double bond between c and o is shorter and weaker

Explanation:

this is because the bond between c and o involves unequal sharing of electrons whole c and c involves hybridization sp2 of orbitals and also catenation phenomenon in which carbon could form long chain with it's other carbon

If 25 g of NH3, and 96 g of H2S react according to the following reaction, what is the
jeyben [28]

25 g of NH₃ will produce 47.8 g of (NH₄)₂S​

<u>Explanation:</u>

2 NH₃ + H₂S ----> (NH₄)₂S​

Molecular weight of NH₃ = 17 g/mol

Molecular weight of (NH₄)₂S​ = 68 g/mol

According to the balanced reaction:

2 X 17 g of NH₃ produces 68 g of (NH₄)₂S​

1 g of NH₃ will produce \frac{68}{34} g of (NH₄)₂S​

25g of NH₃ will produce \frac{65}{34} X 25 g of (NH₄)₂S​

                                     = 47.8 g of (NH₄)₂S​

Therefore, 25 g of NH₃ will produce 47.8 g of (NH₄)₂S​

What is the overall charge of the compound frbr
sammy [17]

Answer:

Zero  

Explanation:

FrBr is an ionic compound .

Fr is in Group 1. Br is in Group 17.

The charges on the ions are +1 and -1, respectively.

The compound consists of Fr⁺Br⁻ ions.

However, there are equal numbers of + and - charges, so

The overall charge of the compound is zero.
