The initial temperature of the copper piece if a 240.0 gram piece of copper is dropped into 400.0 grams of water at 24.0 °C is 345.5°C

<h3>How to calculate temperature?</h3>

The initial temperature of the copper metal can be calculated using the following formula on calorimetry:

Q = mc∆T

mc∆T (water) = - mc∆T (metal)

Where;

  • m = mass
  • c = specific heat capacity
  • ∆T = change in temperature

According to this question, a 240.0 gram piece of copper is dropped into 400.0 grams of water at 24.0 °C. If the final temperature of water is 42.0 °C, the initial temperature of the copper is as follows:

400 × 4.18 × (42°C - 24°C) = 240 × 0.39 × (T - 24°C)

30,096 = 93.6T - 2246.4

93.6T = 32342.4

T = 345.5°C

Therefore, the initial temperature of the copper piece if a 240.0 gram piece of copper is dropped into 400.0 grams of water at 24.0 °C is 345.5°C.

Using the balanced equation for the combustion of ethane: 2C2H6 + 7O2 → 4CO2 + 6H2O, how many moles of O2 needed to produce 12 m
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

14 moles of oxygen needed to produce 12 moles of H2O.

Explanation:

We are given that balance eqaution

2C_2H_6+7O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+6H_2O

We have to find number of moles of O2 needed  to produce 12 moles of H2O.

From given equation

We can see that

6 moles of   H2O produced by Oxygen =7 moles

1 mole of   H2O produced by Oxygen=\frac{7}{6}moles

12 moles of H2O produced by Oxygen=\frac{7}{6}\times 12moles

12 moles of H2O produced by Oxygen=7\times 2moles

12 moles of H2O produced by Oxygen=14 moles

Hence, 14 moles of oxygen needed to produce 12 moles of H2O.

Nady [450]

Answer:

0.825 M

Explanation:

The osmotic pressure is a colligative property, that can be calculated using the following expression.

π = M × R × T

where,

π is the osmotic pressure

M is the molarity

R is the ideal gas constant

T is the absolute temperature (24°C + 273 = 297 K)

M = π / R × T = 20.1 atm / (0.08206 atm.L/mol.K) × 297 K = 0.825 M

Brrunno [24]

She would observe a yellowish  solid precipitate which is the lead iodide and a white solid precipitate which is the potassium nitrate.

This is because the lead nitrate solution which contains particles of lead will mix with the potassium iodide solution containing  particles of iodide. Upon mixing,the  lead particles  from the Lead nitrate solution combines with the  iodide particles from Potassium iodide and form two compounds, a yellowish solid precipitate called lead iodide and a white solid  precipitate called Potassium nitrate.

The formation of entirely two new compounds is known as the double displacement reaction and can be written in a chemical equation as  

2KI(aq.)+Pb(NO₃)₂(aq.)------>2KNO₃(aq.)+PbI ₂(s)
