Answer:</h3>
Initial temperature is 243.59°C
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
The quantity of heat is calculated by multiplying the mass of a substance by its specific heat capacity and change in temperature.
That is; Q = m×c×ΔT
In this case;
Quantity of heat = 560 J
Mass of the Sample of Zinc = 10 g
Final temperature = 100°C
We are required to determine the initial temperature;
This can be done by replacing the known variables in the formula of finding quantity of heat,
Specific heat capacity, c, of Zinc = 0.39 J/g.°C
Therefore,
560 J = 10 g × 0.39 J/g°C × ΔT
ΔT = 560 J ÷ (3.9 J/°C)
= 143.59°C
But, since the sample of Zinc lost heat then the temperature change will have a negative value.
ΔT = -143.59°C
Then,
ΔT = T(final) - T(initial)
Therefore,
T(initial) = T(final) - ΔT
= 100°C - (-143.59°C)
= 243.59°C
Hence, the initial temperature of zinc sample is 243.59°C
False because a compound is one or more elements
Moles of Na2SO4 = conc. x volume(dm3)
= 2 x (2500cm3/1000)
= 5 mol
Mass of Na2SO4 = moles x molar mass
= 5 x ((23 x 2) + 32.1 + (16 x 4))
= 710.5g
The combustion reaction is as expressed,
CxHy + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
The mass fraction of carbon in CO2 is 3/11. Hence,
mass of C in CO2 = (3.14 g)(3/11) = 0.86 g C.
Given that we have 1 g of the hydrocarbon, the mass of H is equal to 0.14 g.
moles of C = 0.86 g C / 12 g = 0.0713
moles of H = 0.14 g H / 1 g = 0.14
The empirical formula for the hydrocarbon is therefore, CH₂.
