Some homes that use baseboard heating use copper tubing. Hot water runs through and heats the copper tubing, which in turn heats

aluminum fins. It is actually the aluminum fins that heat the air rising through the fins. How much energy would it take to heat a section of the copper tubing that weighs about 595.0 g , from 15.18 ∘C to 21.28 ∘C ? Copper has a specific heat of 0.3850 (J/g)⋅∘C. Express your answer to four significant figures.

Answer:

The amount of heat needed is 1397 j.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of copper tubing = 595.0 g

Initial Temperature = 15.18 °C

Final temperature = 21.28 °C

Specific heat of copper = 0.3850 j/g°C

Amount of heat required = ?

Solution:

Change in temperature

ΔT = T2 - T1

ΔT = 21.28 - 15.18 = 6.1 °C

Formula:

Q = m. c. ΔT

Q = amount of heat

m = mass

c = specific heat

ΔT = change in temperature

Now we will put the values in formula,

Q = m. c. ΔT

Q = 595 g. 0.3850 j/g°C . 6.1 °C

Q = 1397.36 j    

The amount of heat needed is 1397 j.

What is the maximum number of hydrogen atoms that can be covalently bonded in a molecule containing two carbon atoms?a) 2b) 3c)
aksik [14]

Answer:

           The correct answer is Option-D (6 Hydrogen atoms).

Explanation:

                  Carbon atom has a unique property of linking to it self and making a chain of carbon called as Catenation. In a molecule having two carbon atoms there must be a bond between the two carbon atoms. The bond can be saturated (single bond) or unsaturated (double or triple bond). But as the statement states maximum number of hydrogen atoms so, we will asume the bond between two carbon atoms to be single.

                  As carbon has four valence electrons so, it has the ability to make four single bonds. In given molecule each carbon has already made a single bond with another carbon therefore, each carbon is left with three more unpaired electrons which will make covalent bond with three hydrogen atoms each as shown in attached structure.

Because its molecules can slide around each other, a liquid<span> has the ability to flow. The resistance to such flow is called the </span>viscosity<span>. For organic liquids, as the chain increases the viscosity increases as well due to the bonding that is present. Therefore, the ranking should be as follows:

The specific rotation of (R) carvone is (+) 61°. The optical rotation of a sample of a mixture of R &amp;S carvone is measured a
shusha [124]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

% optical purity = specific rotation of mixture/specific rotation of pure enantiomer  * 100/1

specific rotation of mixture = 23°

specific rotation of pure enantiomer = 61°

Hence;

% optical purity = 23/61 * 100 = 38 %

More abundant enantiomer = 100% - 38 % = 62%

Hence the pure  (S) carvone is (-) 62° is the more abundant enantiomer.

Enantiomeric excess = 62 - 50/50 * 100 = 24%

Hence

(R) - carvone  =  38 %

(S) - carvone = 62%

Tema [17]

Answer:

When the operation of the voltaic cell, which is formed of an aluminum and silver strip takes place, the atom of aluminum loses three of its electrons and the Al3+ formed moves within the solution. The Al3+ ion gets dissolved within the solution and the electrons lost in the process moves through the wire and get acquired by the ions of silver, which then get reduced to solid Ag resulting in the mass gain of silver strip.

Use the conversion factor 1amu=6.66054 x 10^-24 to answer the following questions.. . a) 1.674 x 10^-24 g of neutrons is how man
Wewaii [24]
A.) The conversion factor is 1 amu = 1.66054 ^{-24}g

To know how many amu in 1.674x10^{-24}g grams of neutrons:
1.674x10^{-24}g ( \frac{x (amu) }{ 1.66054x10^{-24} g)}

=1.00811 amu

b.) The mass in grams of one lithium ion which has an atomic weight of 6.94 amu.

6.94 amu (\frac{6.66054 ^{-24} g}{1 amu}) = 4.62241x10 ^{23} g

c.) How many amu in 6.492x10^-23g potassium?

6.492x10^{-23}g ( \frac{x (amu) }{ 1.66054x10^{-24}g }) = 39.0957 amu
