A new metal alloy was created in the laboratory for use in applications where a strong but light metal is required. An experiment was done to determine the specific heat of the new alloy. 31.37 grams of the alloy was heated to 99.8 °C in a hot water bath and then placed into 98.83 grams of water at 20.4 °C. The temperature of the alloy + water combined reached a temperature of 25.9. Determine the specific heat (in (J/g°C) of the alloy based on this experiment. • The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g°C. • Assume that no heat is lost to the surroundings. • Round your answer to the 1000th place (3 decimal places) Type your answer.

Order these chemical species by increasing pH of an 0.1 M aqueous solution of each. That is, imagine making an 0.1 M solution of each species. Select 1 next to the species that makes the solution with the lowest pH. Select 2 next to the species that makes the solution with the next higher pH, and so on. Notice that some of the rankings have been filled in for you already. Also notice that water is on the list. For that particular case, just compare the pH of pure water to the pH of the other solutions. Note for advanced students: for all charged species, you may assume the necessary counterions act as neither acids nor bases. relative pH of 0.1 M aqueous solution species H20 4 H,PO4 5 HNO2 (Choose one) ▼ NO, 7 ОН (Choose one) ▼ HF |(Choose one) ▼
