A40.0 g drinking glass is filled with hot liquid. the liquid transfers 1,000. j of energy to the glass. if the temperature of the glass increases by 50.0 degrees celsius, what is the specific heat of the glass?

Which substances have the lowest melting points: ionic covalent, or metallic

The small bags of silica gel you often see in a new shoe box are placed there to control humidity. despite its name, silica gel is a solid. it is a chemically inert, highly porous, amorphous form of sio2. because water vapor readily adsorbs onto the surface of silica gel, it acts as a desiccant. despite not knowing mechanistic details of the adsorption of water onto silica gel, from the information provided you should be able to make an educated guess about the thermodynamic characteristics of the process. predict the signs for δg, δh, and δs for the adsorption of water.

At a certain temperature the rate of this reaction is first order in hi with a rate constant of : 0.0632s2hig=h2g+i2g suppose a vessel contains hi at a concentration of 1.28m . calculate how long it takes for the concentration of hi to decrease to 17.0% of its initial value. you may assume no other reaction is important. round your answer to 2 significant digits.
