Copper has a specific heat of 0.092 cal/(g • ?C). When 52.7 cal of heat is added to a piece of copper, the temperature increases from 22.4 ?C to 38.6 ?C. What is the mass of the piece of copper?

Assume that 50.0 cal of heat is applied to a 15g sample of sulfur at 20 ?C. What is the final temperature of the sample if the specific heat of sulfur is 0.175 cal/(g • ?C)?

When 100 cal of heat is applied to a 125g sample , the temperature increases by 28?C. Calculate the specific heat of the sample and compare your answer to the values in Table 2.6. What is the identity of the sample?

mols04 asked:


I’m going to a concert in Chicago, and also a Cubs game. I think we’ll probably go see the Sears Tower too. But other than that I’ve never been to Chicago so I don’t know what there is to do. What are some things to see that won’t take all day (we’ll probably have like 5-6 hours of free time) and are also close to a transit station, because I won’t have a car?

Nate B. asked:


It’s getting to me so BAD!
My coworkers at work all have people in their lives, and most of the guys have girls they get to have fun with. And it ussually is new girls about at least every couple months.
I started this last 2 weeks to stop texting people and see what would happen, and needless to say hardly any text messages (mostly stopped cause one of my “friends” said it was annoying and I text all the time) one a day like “how you doing, whats up”is that to much?
I’m a 21yr. virgin, been dumped because I was a virgin, now the girl who dumped me want’s to be friends again (yet now not talking with me) I like her a lot, yet now she doen’t even text me back, WTH?
I get really sick of this High like want and ambition, then compelete soul shattering deppresion. I don’t know why, any ideas? Feel depresed, sucidal maybe 4+ times a week.
I’m not going anywhere in my life, and having no energy to get up and care about chaging it anymore. I want things, and am willing to work toward them, but then next day don’t give a Sh*t. ***?
Even just talking is becoming diffulcult, daily conversation wise. And it makes me want to go mute.
I don’t want to see a Physc, or Psycholigist, because I’m trying to get into the military, after being denied twice. (kinda one of my dreams I wanted to accomplish).
I’m really sick of it, people I don’t know, I can start a conversation with no issue, but daily lives people it’s like diffucult.
Now I’m lonely! and don’t know what to do, specially when I get rejected all the time, even on questions like this here.
Any thoughts, maybe advice. I’m just tired of bringing my so called friends into this downing thoughts all the time(but they are there all the time, even after I get done with having fun in the moment, ***!)
So really PLZ what should I do? I don’t even know what I want to be anymore! But I want a masters degree before i’m 30, and I’m a drop out of HS. Seriously didn’t even goto school, so starting from stractch :( but I refuse to be alone if I hit 25 then it’s to the top of The Sears Tower! But I seriously do alot alone, and now just broke :( HELP?

allistaken1 asked:


We are not “officially” boyfriend/girlfriend but we’ve been dating for over a month and just about there. The situation is unique, since she is from Japan and doesn’t have a US ID and is 20 yrs old (so we can’t go to any bars or clubs). Also we are going to downtown Chicago, and she has never gone there before, so obviously, I want it to be a special and fun time for her :-)

Thus far I have ideas to go ice skating at Millenium Park (I have asked her already if she would like ice skating and she said yes), then eat at, and see fireworks at Navy Pier. Also I would like to take her to the top of the Sears Tower.

Does this sound good so far? Any other ideas that you may suggest? Thanks!

Could Chicago be the next city planned for a false flag “terror attack”?

Rio asked:


Captain Eric H. May, former Army military intelligence and public affairs officer, as well as a former NBC editorial writer says yes. Captain May specializes in special ops and military propaganda, and, along with a worldwide network of counter-intelligence agents, claims to have thwarted several false flag attacks that could have jump-started a war in Iran.

“My associates and I believe that the most likely target for terror on American soil this summer will be the Texas Gulf coast. Secondary Target: Chicago. While Houston is the most endangered city, the most endangered building — the best candidate to be the next World Trade Center — is the Sears Tower.

Official sources have pronounced it just that ever since the original 9/11 attack, when they said it was on the Al Qaeda hit list. Larry Silverstein, who bought the WTC two months before 9/11, led a group that purchased the Sears Tower on 3/11/04.

apriljtr62674 asked:


A single can of a regular soda, contains 150 calories that is equivalent to 6.28 x 105 J ( 1 Cal = 4186 J ) of energy. Using results from the previous question, calculate how many meters would that person ( 160.4 lb ) have to climb to convert all that energy into potential energy. Would that be enough energy to climb to the top of Sears Tower (442 m) in Chicago after drinking one can of a regular soda?
