You can put a known amount sodium into some sort of time release mechanism such as a pill made from soluble material. Then you can place the sodium into a calorimeter with a known mass of water and record the temperature change the water undergoes during the reaction. Then you can use the equation q(water)=m(water)c(water)ΔT to find the amount of heat absorbed by the water. since the amount of heat absorbed by the water is the amount of heat released from the sodium, q(sodium)=-q(water). Than you can use the equation q(sodium)=m(sodium)c(sodium)ΔT and solve for c(sodium)
I hope this helps and feel free to ask about anything that was unclear in the comments.
Answer:
sorry I didn't know the answer
Explanation:
ok
Explanation:
a) when zinc burnt in oxygen.
2Zn + O2 -----∆-----> 2ZnO(black residue)
b) when carbon burnt in oxygen.
C+O2----∆---> CO2.
c) when sulphur burnt in oxygen.
S+O2-----∆-----> SO2.
d) when Calcium burnt in oxygen.
2Ca+O2-----∆-----> 2CaO(black residue)
e) when Magnesium burnt in oxygen.
2Mg+O2-----∆----> 2MgO.
f) when sodium burnt in oxygen.
4Na+O2----∆-----> 2Na2O.
hope all these reactions help you.
