Accepted Answer

Visible

Question 10

Which of the following sets of quantum numbers is NOT allowed for an electron in an atom?

Accepted Answer

$$n=2,\ l=2,\ m_l=0$$

Question 11

Which of the following best describes the law of conservation of energy?

Accepted Answer

Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.

Question 12

A 10.0 g sample of a metal is heated from $$25.0\ ^\circ\mathrm{C} to$$ $$75.0\ ^\circ\mathrm{C}$$, absorbing $$500\ \mathrm{J} of $$heat. What is the specific heat capacity of the metal?

Accepted Answer

$$0.50\ \mathrm{J/g\cdot ^\circ C}$$
