The SI unit of specific heat is J per gram per degree
Celsius. Thus it follows that specific heat could be calculated in this way:
Specific Heat = Energy / (mass x change in temperature)
Thus,
Specific Heat = 3.912 cal / (9.84 oz x (191.2 ˚F – 73.2 ˚F))
Specific Heat = 3.369 x 10^-3 cal/oz-˚F
Answer:
It is neutral (NR)
Explanation:
Salts are formed when the ionizable hydrogens in an acid is replaced by metallic or ammonium ions from bases. The reaction is known as a neutralization reaction.
The nature of a salt formed from this reaction depends on the nature of the reacting acid and base.
If the reaction is between a strong acid and strong base, the salt produced is a neutral salt.
If the reaction occurs between a strong acid and a weak base, the salt produced is acidic.
If the reaction occurs between a strong base and a weak acid, the salt produced is a basic salt.
Considering the salt above, LiNO3.
On hydrolysis, addition of water, the following products are obtained:
LiNO3 + H2O ----> LiOH + HNO3
The products obtained, LiOH and HNO3 are a strong base and a strong acid respectively. Therefore, the salt, LiNO3, is a neutral salt.
Answer:
3
Explanation:
A cyclic event is one that happens repeatedly.
The appearance of Hailey's Comet is a cyclic event because it has happened in various occasions in the past on a regular schedule as predicted. We have every reason to believe that the appearance of Hailey's Comet every 75 years will continue to be happen until the comet ceases to exist.
Answer:
c = 4016.64 j/g.°C
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of substance = 2.50 g
Calories release = 12 cal (12 ×4184 = 50208 j)
Initial temperature = 25°C
Final temperature = 20°C
Specific heat of substance = ?
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
Solution:
Q = m.c. ΔT
ΔT = T2 - T1
ΔT = 20°C - 25°C
ΔT = -5°C
50208 j = 2.50 g . c. -5°C
50208 j = -12.5 g.°C .c
50208 j /-12.5 g.°C = c
c = 4016.64 j/g.°C
