The specific heat capacity of water is known to be 4.187 kJ/(kg.K).

Using the formula q = mCΔT

we can find ΔT = q/mC = 87 kJ/[587.00 kg x 4.187 kJ/(kg.K)] = 87 kJ/(2547.8 kJ/K)

= 0.035 K

To find the initial temperature, Ti = Tf - ΔT = 518.4 K - 0.0354 K = 518.365 K

Put the following elements into five pairs of elements that have similar chemical reactivity: F, Sr, P, Ca, O, Br, Rb, Sb, Li, S
Anarel [852]

Explanation:

Elements provided:

  F, Sr, P, Ca, O, Br, Rb, Sb, Li, S

Elements sharing similar reactivity belong to the same group in the periodic table, indicating that those in the same column exhibit comparable reactivity. Here are the identified groupings:

  Li and Rb are alkali metals in group 1

  Ca and Sr are alkaline earth metals in group 2

  F and Br are halogens in group 7

  O and S belong to group 6

 P and Sb are classified in group 5 of the periodic table

Thus, these classifications illustrate elements with the same chemical characteristics.

The fuel used in many disposable lighters is liquid butane, C4H10. Butane has a molecular weight of 58.1 grams in one mole. How
KiRa [971]
First convert grams of C4H10 to moles using its molar mass of 58.1 g/mol: 3.50 g C4H10 × (1 mol C4H10 / 58.1 g C4H10) = 0.06024 mol C4H10 Next convert moles to molecules using Avogadro’s number: 0.06024 mol C4H10 × (6.022×10^23 molecules C4H10 / 1 mol C4H10) = 3.627×10^22 molecules C4H10 Each butane molecule contains 4 carbon atoms, so: 3.627×10^22 molecules C4H10 × (4 atoms C / 1 molecule C4H10) = 1.45×10^23 carbon atoms present.

The speed of light in a vacuum is 2.998 × 10 8 8 m/s. How long does it take for light to circumnavigate the Earth, which has a c
castortr0y [923]

Answer:- 0.134 seconds

Solution:- The speed is given as 2.988*10^8\frac{m}{s} and the circumference is 24900 miles which is same as the distance light have to covered. It asks to calculate the time required to cover this distance by the light.

Unit conversion is needed from miles to meters since the speed is given in meters per second.

1 mile = 1609.34 meters

Thus, 24900mile(\frac{1609.34meter}{mile})

= 40072566 meters

Now, speed=\frac{distance}{time}

Rearranged for time, that gives: time=\frac{distance}{speed}

Inserting the values:

time=\frac{40072566meter}{2.988*10^8\frac{meter}{second}}

= 0.134 seconds

Hence, light would take 0.134 seconds to traverse the indicated distance. The answer without the unit is 0.134.

What features of this model will help Armando answer the question?
lions [985]

Answer:

The adjustable legs along with the sand table.

Note: The question is incomplete. The full question is presented below.

Using Models to Address Questions Regarding Systems

Armando’s class was examining images of rivers shaped by flowing water. Most rivers appeared wide and shallow, except for one, which was narrow and deep. The students theorized that this river's narrowness and depth are due to:

  • the steepness of the hill from which the water descends, or
  • the diminutive size of the sand grains the water flows through.

To explore the answer to the question of why this river is so narrow and deep, Armando created the model outlined below.

Explanation:

The model constructed by Armando will facilitate addressing the question due to specific features:

1. Adjustable leg - as one theory proposed by the class suggests that the steep hill affecting the water's path could be the reason for the river's dimensions, the adjustable legs are designed to be raised or lowered to alter the slope, allowing testing of this theory.

2. Sand table - this acts as the streambed. By modifying the size of the sand grains, students can examine the second hypothesis that smaller sand grains contribute to the river's narrowness and depth.

The outcomes of their experimentation will lead them to a conclusion.

alisha [964]
<span>Some solutions demonstrate colligative properties, which rely on the quantity of solute in a solvent. To find the elevation in boiling point, we use the formula:

</span><span>ΔT(boiling point)  = (Kb)mi

where Kb represents a constant, m is the solution's molality, and i is the van't Hoff factor.

From the provided information, we can easily determine i as follows:

</span>ΔT(boiling point)  = (Kb)mi
103.45 - 100  = (0.512)3.90i
