The specific heat of palladium is 0.239 J/g°C. How much heat (q) is released when a 10.0 g piece of platinum cools from 100.0°C to 50.0°C?

Water's surface tension and heat storage capacity are accounted for by its a) orbitals b) weight c) hydrogen bonds d) mass e) size

At 20°c, a sample of h2o liquid and a sample of co2 gas each have the same average kinetic energy. why is one a liquid and the other a gas at this temperature?

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.
