2. calculate the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 3.00g of gold from 45.9 to 93.0°c.

3. 1.70g of a silvery metal requires 1000.j of energy to change its temp from 298k to 2749k. is the metal pure silver?

1. Kindly, see the attached image.

2. 18.369 J.

3. Yes, the metal is pure silver.

Explanation:

1. Draw a graph of an exothermic reaction. Label reactants, products and ∆H.

2. Calculate the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 3.00 g of gold from 45.9 to 93.0°C.

Q = m.c.ΔT.

Where, Q is the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of gold (J).

m is the mass of the gold (m = 3.0 g).

c is the specific heat of gold (c = 0.13 J/g.°C).

ΔT is the temperature difference between the initial and final T (ΔT = 93.0 °C - 45.9 °C = 47.1 °C).

∴ Q = m.c.ΔT = (3.0 g)(0.13 J/g.°C)(47.1 °C) = 18.369 J.

3. 1.70 g of a silvery metal requires 1000.0 J of energy to change its temp from 298 K to 2749 K. Is the metal pure silver?

As mentioned in details in the second point, we can use the relation:

Q = m.c.ΔT

Q = 1000.0 J, m = 1.70 g, ΔT = 2749 - 298 = 2451 °C.

∴ c = Q/(m.ΔT) = (1000.0 J)/(1.70 g)(2451 °C) = 0.239 J/g.°C ≅ 0.24 J/g.°C.

organisms are more likely to be more preserved in mud than sand because mud is moist and wet, while sand is very dry.

if you're asking what comes out, it's steam.
