When a 8 gram slice of bread is burned under a beaker of 4500 grams of water, it heats up the water by 1.3 degrees Celsius. The specific heat of water is 1 cal/g degree C. How many calories does this slice of bread contain

Explanation:

m = Mass of water = 4500 g

c = Specific heat of water =

= Change in temperature of water =

Heat is given by

A slice of the bread contains .

a:

by the combination of an unlimited number of elements

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
