A 23.2 g sample of copper if heated to 97.4°C and placed in a coffee cup calorimeter containing 100.0 g of water at 25.2°C. After the metal cools, the final temperature of the metal and water is 23.0°C.
Which substance absorbed heat and which one released heat?

Imagine that you have produced several versions of lactase, each of which differs from normal lactase by a single amino acid. describe a test that could indirectly determine which of the versions significantly alters the three-dimensional shape of the lactase protein.

When svante arrhenius first proposed his acid-base theory, he was a doctoral candidate. his professors thought his ideas were unfounded. within a decade, the arrhenius theory of acid-base was widely accepted and praised within the scientific world. arrhenius defined acids as compounds having ionizable hydrogen and bases as compounds with ionizable a) barium. b) hydronium. c) hydroxide. d) oxygen.

The bond energy for the van der waals bond between two helium atoms is 7.9×10−4ev. assuming that the average kinetic energy of a helium atom is (3/2)kbt, at what temperature is the average kinetic energy equal to the bond energy between two helium atoms
