Calculate the amount of heat, in Joules, needed to raise 34.0g of water from 55.0°C to 76.0*C. The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/gºC.

2984.52J

Explanation:

Using the formula: Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = amount of heat (in Joules)

m = mass (in grams)

c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

Based on the information provided in the question;

m = 34.0g

c = 4.18 J/gºC.

Initial temperature = 55.0°C

Final temperature = 76.0°C

Hence, Q = m × c × ∆T

Q = 34 × 4.18 × (76 - 55)

Q = 142.12 × 21

Q = 2984.52J

Therefore, 2984.52J is the amount of heat, in Joules, needed to raise 34.0g of the water.

alkaline metals are lithium, sodium, rubidium, potassium, cesium and francium.

alkali metals have electronegativity from 0.7 to 1, lowest in periodic table of elements, which means that alkali metals (i group in periodic table) has positive oxidation number in compounds.

electronegativity is a chemical property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons towards itself.

alkaline metals (far left in main group) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons,

for example, potassium is the alkali metal and has a single valence electron in the outer electron shell.

electron configuration of potassium is: ₁₉k 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶4s¹.

they can not exist alone in nature, because they are very reactive.
