A kettle of water is at 14.5°C. Its temperature is then raised to 50.0°C by supplying it with 5,680 joules of heat. The specific

heat capacity of water is 4.186 joules/gram degree Celsius. What is the mass of water in the kettle? Express your answer to three significant figures. The mass of the water in the kettle is grams.

Answer:- 38.2 g.

Solution:- The equation used for solving this type of calorimetry problems is:

q=mc\Delta T

where, q is the heat energy, m is mass, c is specific heat and delta T is the change in temperature.

Water temperature is increasing from 14.5 degree C to 50.0 degree C.

\Delta T=50.0-14.5  = 35.5 degree C

q is given as 5680 J and specific heat value is 4.186\frac{J}{g.^0C} .

The equation could be rearranged for m as:

m=\frac{q}{c*\Delta T}

Let's plug in the values in it:

m=\frac{5680}{4.186*35.5}

m = 38.2 g

So, the mass of water in the kettle is 38.2 g.

Kaylis [27]

Physical changes occur when the properties of a substance are retained and/or the materials can be recovered after the change. Chemical changes involve the formation of a new substance. Formation of a gas, solid, light, or heat are possible evidence of chemical change.

When a 3.22 g sample of an unknown hydrate of sodium sulfate, na2so4 ⋅ h2o(s), is heated, h2o (molar mass 18 g) is driven off. T
Mariana [72]

The value of X is 10 hence the formula of unknown hydrate   sodium sulfate is  NaSO4.10 H20

calculation

step 1:find the moles of NaSO4 and the moles of H2O

moles= mass/molar mass

moles of Na2SO4=1.42÷142=0.01 moles

moles of H20=  mass of H2O/molar mass of H2O

mass of H2O= 3.22-1.42=1.8g

mole of H2O is therefore 1.8÷18=0.1 moles

step 2: find the mole ratio by dividing each mole by smallest number of mole (0.01)

that is Na2So4= 0.01/0.01 =1

            H2O= 0.1/0.01=10

While hiking in the woods, you see a brown, rotting apple lying on the ground. What changes is the physical properties of the ap
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The change in color.

Explanation:

The apple turn brown in color because of the oxidation process. When the oxygen and water molecules in air react with it, oxidation take place. The oxidation process is very efficient in ambient temperature.

For example, if the peal off apple is placed into the refrigerator it take a time to got oxidize and turn brown, but if it is placed in room temperature it quickly turn brown.

when oxygen is react with peel off apple , it trigger the polyphenol oxidase enzyme to oxidize the phenolic compound and quinones are formed which then react with amino acids and produced brown color.

A(n) _______________ can be formed by linking together several monosaccharides via glycosidic bonds.
mario62 [17]

Answer:

A polysaccharide (n) can be formed by linking several monosaccharides through glycosidic linkages.

Explanation:

Polysaccharides are carbohydrates or complex carbohydrates, where monosaccharides join with glucosidic bonds to form a more complex structure that would be the polysaccharide.

An example of a polysaccharide is starch, or glycogen.

Starch is found in many foods such as potatoes or rice, and glycogen is a form of energy reserve of our organism housed in muscles and liver to fulfill locomotion, physical activity, and other activities that consist of glycolysis.

Polysaccharides are degraded in our body by different stages, and several enzymes unlike monosoccharides or disaccharides, since they have more unions and a more complex structure to disarm in our body and thus assimilate it.

Polysaccharides are also part of animal structures, such as insect shells or nutritional sources, among others.
