If we takes 11. 2 kj of energy to raise the temperature of 145 g of benzene from 23. 0°c to 68. 0°c, then the specific heat of benzene is

1716.475 J/kg.°C.

Specific Heat capacity is given as

Q = cm(t₂-t₁) ................equation 1

Where Q = quantity of heat, c = specific heat of benzene, m = mass of benzene, t₁  = initial temperature, t₂ = final temperature.

C = \frac{Q}{m_{(t2-t1)} } ...........equation 2

Given:

Q = 11.2 kJ = 11200 J \\\\m= 145\\\\g = 0.145 kg\\\\t_{2} = 68.0 °C\\\\t_{1} = 23.0 °C

Substitute into equation 2.

C = \frac{11200}{[0.145(68-23)]}\\\\ C= \frac{11200}{6.525}\\\\ C= 1716.475 J/kg °C

Hence the specific heat of benzene = 1716.475 J/kg °C

If the solubility of sodium chloride is 36 grams per 100 grams of water, which of the following solutions would be considered un
Murrr4er [49]

Answer: If the solubility of sodium chloride is 36 grams per 100 grams of water then 5.8 moles of NaCl dissolved in 1 L of water solution would be considered unsaturated.

Explanation:

A solution which contains the maximum amount of solute is called a saturated solution. Whereas a solution in which more amount of solute is able to dissolve is called an unsaturated solution.

Now, the number of moles present in 36 g of NaCl (molar mass = 58.4 g/mol) is as follows.

No. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\= \frac{36 g}{58.4 g/mol}\\= 0.616 mol

This shows that solubility of sodium chloride is 36 grams per 100 grams of water means a maximum of 0.616 mol of NaCl will dissolve in 100 mL of water.

So, a solution in which number of moles of NaCl are less than 0.616 mol per 100 mL then the solution formed will be an unsaturated solution.

  • As 5.8 moles of NaCl dissolved in 1 L (or 1000 mL) of water. So, moles present in 100 mL are calculated as follows.

Moles = \frac{5.8 mol}{1000 mL} \times 100 mL\\= 0.58 mol

  • Moles present in 100 mL of water for 3.25 moles of NaCl dissolved in 500 ml in water are as follows.

Moles = \frac{3.25 mol}{500 mL} \times 100 mL\\0.65 mol

  • Moles present in 100 mL of water for 1.85 moles of NaCl dissolved in 300 ml of water are as follows.

Moles = \frac{1.85 mol}{300 mL} \times 100 mL\\= 0.616 mol

Thus, we can conclude that if the solubility of sodium chloride is 36 grams per 100 grams of water then 5.8 moles of NaCl dissolved in 1 L of water solution would be considered unsaturated.

Use the following data to calculate the standard heat (enthalpy) of formation, Δ H°f, of manganese(IV) oxide, MnO2 ( s). 2MnO2(
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

(A)

Explanation:

The enthalpy of formation of a substance is the enthalpy of the reaction where this substance is formed by its constituents species. So, for MnO2, the enthalpy of formation is the enthalpy of the reaction:

Mn(s) + O2(g) --> MnO2(s)

By the Hess' law, when a reaction follows steps, the enthalpy of the overall reaction is the sum of the enthalpy of the steps. In this sum, the intermediaries must be canceled, so, some changes may have to be done in the reactions. If the reaction is inverted, the signal of the enthalpy inverts too, and if it's multiplied by some constant, the enthalpy is multiplied too.

2MnO2 (s) --> 2MnO(s) + O2(g) ΔH = 264 kJ (must be inverted)

MnO2(s) + Mn(s) --> 2 MnO(s) ΔH = -240 kJ

O2(g) + 2MnO(s) --> 2MnO2(s) ΔH = -264 kJ

MnO2(s) + Mn(s) --> 2 MnO(s) ΔH = -240 kJ

---------------------------------------------------------------------

MnO is canceled, and 2MnO2 - MnO2 = MnO2 in the products because it was where have more of it:

O2(g) + Mn(s) --> MnO2(s)

ΔH = -264 + (-240) = -504 kJ
