A 13.8 g of zinc is heated to 98.8 c in boiling water and then dropped onto a beaker containing 45.0 g of water at 25.o °C .when the water and metal come to thermal equilibrium the temperature is 27.1°C .what is the specific heat capacity

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, by considering thermodynamics and the temperature of zinc, we can infer it is hot while water is cold, it means that the heat lost by the zinc is gained by the water and we can write:

In terms of mass, specific heat and temperatures we can write:

In such a way, by solving for the specific heat capacity of the zinc we write:

Thus, by plugging in the given values we obtain:

Best regards!

- calcium has greater affinity to bond with electron receptors than hydrogen does and hence, it has the ability to replace hydrogen in most of its compounds.

- lithium has 2 valence electrons in the product because it can make only 1 bond with hydrogen. beryllium has 4 valence electrons in the product because it can only make 2 bonds. it has fewer electrons than neon and can react with electron donors. each hydrogen has 2 valence electrons, the same as helium.

- the covalent bond formed between carbon and hydrogen is polar because carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen and it attracts the bonded electron pair closer to itself, thus giving hydrogen a partial positive charge.

- a hydrogen bond is a relatively weak bond that hydrogen atoms make with the electronegative atoms nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine.

so the best choice is a.) 2 calcium (ca) atoms

contour lines on a map indicate elevation, or depth. numeric notations on contour lines refer to the level of elevation, or height about sea level.
