A 175 g piece of iron and a 175 g piece

of aluminum are placed in a hot water

bath so that they are warmed to 99.7/C.

The metal samples are removed and

cooled to 21.5/C. Which sample

undergoes the greater heat change?

(Al; -12.3 kJ Fe; - 6.08 kJ)

please help

Answer : The sample undergoes the greater heat change is, aluminum.

Explanation :

Specific heat capacity : It is defined as the amount of heat absorbed by one gram of a substance to raise its temperature by one degree Celsius.

Formula used for specific heat capacity :

where,

C = specific heat capacity

m = mass of a substance

q = heat required

= change in temperature of substance

As we know that the heat change is directly proportional to the specific heat capacity  at constant temperature and mass that means higher the specific heat capacity, the higher will be the heat change and vice-versa.

The specific heat capacity  of iron and aluminum is, 0.449 J/g.°C and 0.903 J/g.°C respectively.

From this we conclude that the specific heat capacity of aluminum is greater than iron. So, aluminium sample undergoes the greater heat change.

Hence, the sample undergoes the greater heat change is, aluminum.

it's filtration, but this is an assumption so my apologies if i got this

so here we go

atomic mass

239 + 1 = y + 134 + 3 combine like terms

240 = y + 137             subtract 137 from both terms

240 - 137 = y

103 = y

atomic number

94 = z +54 + 0

94 = z + 54               subtract 54 from both sides.

40 = z
