Please HELP! Chewbacca finds an unknown piece he believes is part of C3PO of metal weighing 91.5 g. To test this it is heated to 93.7∘C, it is dropped into 284.1 g of water at 25.2∘C. When Equilibrium is reached, the temperature of the water and piece of metal is 28.9∘C. Determine the specific heat of the metal(in cal/g∘C). Assume the heat capacity of the container, a Styrofoam cup, is negligible. Hint: heat gained by water = heat lost by metal.

Answer from: Quest

a mercury barometer is a device that uses the physical properties of mercury in a tube to measure barometric pressure. mercury barometers are used for : -

1. measurement of atmospheric pressure

2. determining the altitude of a place

3. weather forecasting

4. calibration and checking of aneroid barometers

5. application in fluid mechanics

6. measurement of pressure in aircrafts

7. surface weather analysis

8. preparation of barographs

9. usage in physical sciences like physics, astronomy & chemistry

10. preparation of aircraft altimeters

characteristics of mercury barometer : -

1.used to define and measure atmospheric pressure.

2.on the average at sea level the column of mercury rises to a height of about 760 mm.

3.this quantity is equal to 1 atmosphere.

4.it is also known as standard atmospheric pressure.

5.a barometer in which the weight of a column of mercury in a glass tube with a sealed top is balanced against that of the atmosphere pressing on an exposed cistern of mercury at the base of the mercury column, the height of the column varying with atmospheric pressure.

Write 15 uses of a mercury barometer along with its characterestics

Answer from: Quest

Ans. : frostbite is when exposure to cold temperatures causes freezing to the skin or other tissues. it most commonly affects the hands, feet, and face. the longer areas are exposed to cold, typically the worse the frostbite. the water temperature used for rewarming a frostbitten part should be : (102 -105) f degrees.

Answer from: Quest

answer : third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol

explanation :

let us write down the given equations

equation 1 : $4x (s) + 3o_{2} (g) \rightarrow 2x_{2}o_{3} (s) h rxn = -600 kj/mol$

equation 2 : $2x (s) + 3cl_{2} (g) \rightarrow 2xcl_{3} (s) h rxn = -800 kj/mol$

equation 3 : $4xcl_{3} (s) + 3o_{2} (g) \rightarrow 2x_{2}o_{3} (s) + 6cl_(2} h rxn = -200 kj/mol$

let us use hess's law to find out which 2 equations can be added to get the third equation.

let us reverse equation 2 and multiply it by 2. the new equation that we get is,

equation 4 : $4xcl_{3} (s) \rightarrow 4x (s) + 6cl_{2} ( h rxn = (+800) \times 2 kj/mol$

let us add equation 1 & 4

$4x (s) + 3o_{2} (g) \rightarrow 2x_{2}o_{3} (s) h rxn = -600 kj/mol$

$4xcl_{3} (s) \rightarrow 4x (s) + 6cl_{2} ( h rxn = (+1600) kj/mol$

$4xcl_{3} )s) + 3o_{2} \rightarrow 2x_{2}o_{3} (s) + 6cl_{2} (g) h rxn = (+1000) kj/mol$

the above equation is similar to equation 3 but has different value for dhrxn.

therefore third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol

Answer from: Quest

if the temperature drops and becomes cool

then the atmosphere can be freezing as the water vapor in the air is at maximum (100%) and can be severely cold

also can be snowing lightly as the moisture in the air will start to solidify

and btw this is not chemistry but
