Calculate the calories lost when 95 g of water cools from 45 ∘c to 29 ∘c. express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units. use abbreviations for the units.

1,520.00 calories

Explanation:

Water molecules are linked by hydrogen bonds that require a lot of heat (energy) to break, which is released when the temperature drops. That energy is called specific heat or thermal capacity (ĉ) when it is enough to change the temperature of 1g of the substance (in this case water) by 1°C. Water ĉ equals 1 cal/(g.°C).

Given that ĉ = Q / (m.ΔT),

where Q= calories transferred between the system and its environment or another system (unity: calorie or cal) (what we are trying to find out),

m= mass of the substance (unity: grams or g), and

ΔT= difference of temperature (unity: Celsius degrees or °C); and

m= 95g and ΔT= 16°C:

Q= 1 cal/(g.°C).95g.16°C = 1,520.00 cal

answer; (d) spontaneous processes are characterized by the overall conversion of order to disorder;

a high pressure system is a dense air mass that is usually cooler and drier than the surrounding air. a low pressure system is a less dense air mass that is usually wetter and warmer than the surrounding air.

in general, areas that experience high atmospheric pressure also experience fair weather. low pressure systems can cause the formation of clouds and storms. air usually flows from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure..
