Answer:

The final temperature will be close to 20°C

Explanation:

First of all, the resulting temperature of the mix can't be higher than the hot substance's (80°C) or lower than the cold one's (20°C). So options d) and e) are imposible.

Now, due to the high heat capacity of water (4,1813 J/mol*K) it can absorb a huge amount of heat without having a great increment in its temperature. On the other hand, copper have a small heat capacity (0,385 J/mol*K)in comparison.

In conclusion, the copper will release its heat decreasing importantly its temperature and the water will absorb that heat resulting in a small increment of temperature. So the final temperature will be close to 20°C

<u>This analysis can be done because we have equal masses of both substances. </u>

Calculate the density in g/mL of 2.0L of gasoline that weighs 1.26 kg

quester [9]

2.0 L in mL :

2.0 x 1000 => 2000 mL

1.26 kg in g :

1.26 x 1000 => 1260 g

D = mass / volume

D = 1260 / 2000

D = 0.63 g/mL

hope this helps!

Gnoma [55]

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

A solution of chloroform ( $CHCl_{3}$ ) and acetone ( $(CH_{3})_{2}CO$ ) exhibits a negative deviation from Raoult's law. This result implies that:

chloroform-chloroform interactions are stronger than chloroform-acetone interactions.

chloroform-chloroform interactions are weaker than chloroform-acetone interactions.

acetone-acetone interactions are stronger than chloroform-acetone interactions.

acetone-acetone interactions are weaker than chloroform-acetone interactions

chloroform-chloroform interactions are weaker than chloroform-acetone interactions AND acetone-acetone interactions are weaker than chloroform-acetone interactions.

Explanation:

It is known that when the forces between the particles of the mixture are stronger than the forces between the particles in the pure liquids then negative deviations from Raoult's law are observed.

Hence, when a solution of chloroform ( $CHCl_{3}$ ) and Acetone ( $(CH_{3})_{2}CO$ ) will exhibit a negative deviation from Roult's law.

Then, chloroform-chloroform interactions should be weaker than chloroform-acetone interactions and acetone-acetone interactions must be weaker than Chloroform-Acetone interactions.

thus, we can conclude that for the given situation chloroform-chloroform interactions are weaker than chloroform-acetone interactions AND acetone-acetone interactions are weaker than chloroform-acetone interactions.
