The answer is (3) 11,460 y. For this problem, you must know that the half life of C-14 is 5740 y and that nuclear decay processes are first order reactions (which means that the half life remains constant). For 25.00g to be left of a 100.0g sample, two half life must have elapsed (100*0.5*0.5=25). Each half life is 5730 y, so the total time elapsed is 5730 * 2 = 11,460 y.

Which of the following would release the most heat? Assume the same mass of in each case. Specific heats of ice, liquid water, a
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

The process which releases most heat is E)

Explanation:

As we know that water freezes at 0ºC and vaporizes at 100ºC, we calculate the heat as follows:

  • Processes with temperatures < 0ºC : by using specific heat of ice (Sh ice) multiplied by the change in temperature (ΔT= Final Temperature - Initial Temperature)⇒ Sh ice x ΔT
  • Processes of ice melting (at 0ºC): by using heat of fusion of ice (ΔH fus) multiplied by a conversor factor (1 mol H20= 18 g)⇒ ΔHfus x 1mol/18g
  • Processes between 0ºC and 100ºC: by using specific heat of liquid water (Sh liq) multiplied by change in temperature ⇒ Sh liq x ΔT
  • Processes of water evaporation (at 100ºC): by using heat of vaporization (ΔH vap) multiplied by the conversor factor ⇒ ΔH vap x 1mol/18 g
  • Processes at a temperature >100ºC: by using specific heat of water vapor (Sh vap) multiplied by the change in temperature ⇒ Sh vap x ΔT

A) Water at -25ºC is ice. Ice is heated from -25ºC to 0ºC, then it melts at 0ºC (ice became liquid water) and then liquid water is heated from 0ºC to 70ºC. T

This is the only process in with the heat is absorbed (not releases), so it cannot be the right answer, but we calculate the heat involved to practice:

Heat= (Sh ice x ΔT) + (ΔH fus x 1/18 g) + Sh liq x ΔT

Heat= (2.05 J/g ºC x (0ºC -(-25ºC) ) + (6.01 x 10³ J/mol x 1 mol/18 g) + (4.18 J/g ºC x (70ºC-0ºC)

Heat= 51.25 J + 333,8 J +292.6 J

Heat= 677.65 J (heat is absorbed)

B) Water is cooled from 13ºC to 0ºC, then it is freezed at 0ºC and then the ice is cooled from 0ºC to -2.6 ºC

Heat= (Sh liq x ΔT) + (-ΔH melt x 1/18 g) + (Sh ice x ΔT)

Heat= 4.18 J/ºC x (0ºC- 13ºC) + (-6.01 x 10³ J/mol x 1mol/18 g) + (2.05 J/ºC x (-2.5ºc - 0ºC)

Heat= -54.34 J - 333.8 J + 5.33 J

Heat= -393.47 J (heat is released)

C) Liquid water is cooled from 74ºC to 95ºC

Heat= Sh liq x ΔT

Heat= 4.18 J/ºC x (74ºC - 95ºC)

Heat = -87.78 J (heat is released)

D) Water at 140ºC is in vapor state. Vapor at 140ºC is cooled to 110ºC (still vapor).

Heat = Sh vap x ΔT

Heat= 2.01 J/ºC x (110ºC - 140ºC)

Heat= -60.3 J (heat is released)

E) Vapor at 106ºC is cooled to 100ºC, then it condenses at 100ºC (convertion from gas to liquid), and liquid water is cooled from 100ºC to 88ºC.

Heat= (Sh vap x ΔT) + (-ΔHvap x 1mol/18g) + (Sh liq x ΔT)

Heat= (2.01 J/ºC x (100ºC-106ºC)) - (40.7 x 10³ J/mol x 1mol/18 g) + (4.18 J/ºC x (88ºC -100ºC)

Heat= -2323.32 J (heat is released) <u>THIS IS THE RIGHT ANSWER</u> (the more negative= the more released)
