A12.5 g sample of granite initially at 82.0 oc is immersed into 25.0 g of water that is initially at 22.0 oc. what is the final temperature of both substances when they reach thermal equilibrium? (specific heat capacity of water = 4.18 j/g. oc and specific heat capacity of granite = 0.790 j/g. oc)

The amount of heat lost by granite is equal to the amount of heat gained by water. Therefore their change in enthalpies must be equal. The opposite in sign means that one is gaining while the other is losing

ΔH granite = - ΔH water

ΔH is the change in enthalpy experienced by a closed object as it undergoes change in energy. This is expressed mathematically as,

ΔH = m Cp (T2 – T1)

Given this information, we can say that:

12.5 g * 0.790 J / g ˚C * (T2 – 82 ˚C) = - 25.0 g * 4.18 J / g ˚C * (T2 – 22 ˚C)

9.875 (T2 – 82) = 104.5 (22 – T2)

9.875 T2 – 809.75 = 2299 – 104.5 T2

114.375 T2 = 3108.75

T2 = 27.18 ˚C

The temperature of 2 objects after reaching thermal equilibrium is 27.18 ˚C.

n has four pairs of electrons in the valence shell, electrons repel one another ,n has 7 protons in its nucleus, and since n has 7 protons, it must fill the second shell, giving it 4 pairs of electrons. the electrons form 3 bonds and 1 lone pair of electrons. each pair of electrons repels the other pairs, so they are equally far apart.

so all of the above

the only liquid elements at standard temperature and pressure are bromine (br) and mercury (hg). although, elements caesium (cs), rubidium (rb), francium (fr) and gallium (ga) become liquid at or just above room temperature.
