Specific heat refers to the quantity of heat a material can absorb or release to alter its temperature by one degree Celsius. To calculate specific heat, we apply the equation for the heat absorbed by the system. The heat taken in or released by a system can be expressed by multiplying the mass of the substance by its specific heat capacity and the change in temperature. The formula is:
Heat = mC(T2-T1)
By substituting the provided values, we can find C, the specific heat of the substance.
2510 J = 0.158 kg (1000 g / 1 kg)(C)(61.0 - 32.0 °C) C = 0.5478 J/g°C
Monomers combine through electron sharing during the polymerization process. This leads to the formation of a polymer, which consists of repeating units. The resulting substance has various applications.
The compound is acetone ( CH₃-CO-CH₃)
Explanation:
1) Acetone is represented as CH₃-CO-CH₃.
2) This is a molecule formed by covalent bonds.
3) When it dissolves, compounds with covalent bonds remain as individual molecules, indicating that the primary species in the solution are the molecules themselves, which are surrounded (solvated) by water molecules.
In contrast, ionic compounds ionize. For example, when NaCl dissolves in water, it completely breaks down into ions, hence the predominant species are the ions Na⁺ and Cl⁻, rather than the NaCl formula.
This leads to the conclusion that: when acetone dissolves in water, the primary components are the acetone molecules (there is no need to mention that water molecules are in the solution, as that isn't the question's focus).
What is being removed during the wash is the solvent.
