For this problem, we use the formula for sensible heat which is written below:

Q= mCpΔT
where Q is the energy
Cp is the specific heat capacity
ΔT is the temperature difference

Q = (55.5 g)(<span>0.214 cal/g</span>·°C)(48.6°C- 23°C)
<em>Q = 304.05 cal</em>

Read the information on Hydrochloric Acid. List four ways you can avoid injury while using HCl and three steps you would take in
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Find the list and explanation below.

Explanation:

Hydrochloric acid shortened as HCl is a harmful chemical when not handled properly. Four ways to avoid injury with hydrochloric acid include;

1. Dilution: It is advised to dilute the concentrated hydrochloric acid with a reasonable amount of water so that its corrosive effect can be significantly reduced.

2. Wear a laboratory coat: When working with hydrochloric acid in the laboratory it is always advised to wear a laboratory suit so as to ensure a minimal amount of harm in case of an accident or spillage with the acid.

3. Wear a face shield: It is also important that a face shield is worn while working with the acid to prevent contact with the eyes.

4. Wear a protective rubber glove: The rubber gloves would ensure that there is minimal contact of the acid with the hands.

Three steps to be taken in case of an accidental exposure include;

1. Medical Attention: In serious cases, such as in a case of ingesting the acid, urgent medical help should be sought for immediately.

2. Water: If there is contact with the skin or eye, a lot of water should be used on the affected area, and then medical help obtained.

3. Inhalation of fresh air: In a case whereby the hydrochloric acid was inhaled for a long time, the affected person should try to get some fresh air and if other effects are noticed, urgent medical attention should be gotten.

miv72 [106K]

The classification of it being a metal, nonmetal, or metalliod will be useful in the process of elimination to determine what it is. Then for the second test, meauring the atomin radius will narrow it down quicker to the mystery elemet's name.

Since you determined what part of the periodic table it's on, then when measuring the atomic radius, you should be able to pinpoint what the element is more surely.
