A student investigates a pure metal, X . The student takes a 100.0 g piece of metal X , heats it to 500.0°C , then places it on a 1000.0 g block of ice at 0.0°C . The ice partially melts, and the final temperature of the metal, ice, and melted water is 0.0°C . The student calculates the experimental value of the specific heat capacity of metal X and records it as 0.24 J/(g⋅°C) . Calculate the magnitude of the energy change (qmetal) of metal X during the experiment.

q_metal = -12000 J = -12 KJ

Here, the negative sign indicates that the energy is lost by the metal piece.

Explanation:

The magnitude of energy change of the metal X can be given by the following formula:

where,

m = mass of metal = 100 g

C = Specific Heat Capacity of metal X = 0.24 J/g.°C

ΔT = Change in Temperature of Metal Piece = 0° C - 500°C = -500°C

Therefore, using these values in the equation, we get:

q_metal = -12000 J = -12 KJ

Here, the negative sign indicates that the energy is lost by the metal piece.

sup bro, im dumb, but this is what i found xd

"the ozone layer acts as a filter for the shorter wavelength and highly hazardous ultraviolet radiation (uvr) from the sun, protecting life on earth from its potentially harmful effects. when the sky is clear, there is an inverse relationship between stratospheric ozone and solar uvr measured at the earth's surface"
