Why did you use two coffee cups during the experiment instead of just one cup? in case a hole was punctured in the inside cup to add more weight in order to stabilize the calorimeter to hold all of the water in the experiment so that the water temperature would not change at all during the experiment to prevent heat from escaping from the calorimeter

Identify which properties could correspond to solids, plasmas, or both. maintain a unique shape. collide infrequently with other particles. have very high velocities. conduct electricity. protons. have a low temperature. has long-range order.

The conventional equilibrium constant expression (kc) for the system below is: 2icl(s) ⇄ i2(s) + cl2(g) [cl2] ([i2] + [cl2])/2[icl] [i2][cl2]/[icl]2 none of the listed answers are correct [i2][cl2]/2[icl]

Two nitro no2 groups are chemically bonded to a patch of surface. they can't move to another location on the surface, but they can rotate (see sketch at right). it turns out that the amount of rotational kinetic energy each no2 group can have is required to be a multiple of ε, where =ε×1.010−24 j. in other words, each no2 group could have ε of rotational kinetic energy, or 2ε, or 3ε, and so forth — but it cannot have just any old amount of rotational kinetic energy. suppose the total rotational kinetic energy in this system is initially known to be 32ε. then, some heat is removed from the system, and the total rotational kinetic energy falls to 18ε. calculate the change in entropy. round your answer to 3 significant digits, and be sure it has the correct unit symbol.
