As long as the equation in question can be expressed as the sum of the three equations with known enthalpy change, its
can be determined with the Hess's Law. The key is to find the appropriate coefficient for each of the given equations.
Let the three equations with
given be denoted as (1), (2), (3), and the last equation (4). Let
,
, and
be letters such that
. This relationship shall hold for all chemicals involved.
There are three unknowns; it would thus take at least three equations to find their values. Species present on both sides of the equation would cancel out. Thus, let coefficients on the reactant side be positive and those on the product side be negative, such that duplicates would cancel out arithmetically. For instance,
shall resemble the number of
left on the product side when the second equation is directly added to the third. Similarly
Thus
and

Verify this conclusion against a fourth species involved-
for instance. Nitrogen isn't present in the net equation. The sum of its coefficient shall, therefore, be zero.

Apply the Hess's Law based on the coefficients to find the enthalpy change of the last equation.

Answer:
Percent error = 12.5%
Explanation:
In a measurement you can find percent error following the formula:
Percent error = |Measured value - Accepted Value| / Acepted value * 100
Based on the data of the problem, accepted value is 22.4L and the measured Value (Value of Sara) was 19.6L.
Replacing:
Percent error = |Measured value - Accepted Value| / Acepted value * 100
Percent error = |19.6L - 22.4L| / 22.4L * 100
Percent error = |-2.8L| / 22.4L * 100
Percent error = 2.8L / 22.4L * 100
Percent error = 12.5%
Explanation:
The two ways that energy can be transferred are by doing work and by heat transfer.
Answer:
81°C.
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we can use the relation:
<em>Q = m.c.ΔT,</em>
where, Q is the amount of heat released from water (Q = - 1200 J).
m is the mass of the water (m = 20.0 g).
c is the specific heat capacity of water (c of water = 4.186 J/g.°C).
ΔT is the difference between the initial and final temperature (ΔT = final T - initial T = final T - 95.0°C).
∵ Q = m.c.ΔT
∴ (- 1200 J) = (20.0 g)(4.186 J/g.°C)(final T - 95.0°C ).
(- 1200 J) = 83.72 final T - 7953.
∴ final T = (- 1200 J + 7953)/83.72 = 80.67°C ≅ 81.0°C.
<em>So, the right choice is: 81°C.</em>
