Answer: c = 710 J/kg°C or 0.71 J/g°C

Explanation: Heat is expressed in the formula Q = mc∆T. Derive to find the specific heat c. So the formula will become c = Q / m∆T

c = Q / m∆T

= 42600 J / 2 kg ( 55°C - 25°C )

= 710 J /kg°C

Or can be expressed by converting kg to g.

c = 0.71 J /g°C

Answer:

The heat capacity of carbon is 710 J/kg°C

Explanation:

Given;

Mass (m) = 2.0 Kg

T₁ = 25°C , T₂ = 55°C       ∴ Θ = T₂ - T₁ = 55°C - 25°C ==> 30°C

Energy absorbed (E) = 42,600 J

Heat Capacity (C) = ?

heat equation => E = m*C*Θ

Making "c" the subject, the equation becomes

C = E / mΘ

C = \frac{42,600}{2 (30)}

C = 710 J /kg°C

Which of the following has to remain constant to allow you to use the combined gas law for calculations?
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Amount of gas

Explanation:

The combined gas law has to do with pressure, volume, and temperature. All of them can be a variable that you have to solve for. However, amount of gas is not a variable you can solve for, which means it must remain constant.

How many grams do 6.534e+24 molecules of phosphoric acid weigh?
fredd [130]

Answer:

1,063 grams H₃PO₄

Explanation:

To find the mass of phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄), you should (1) convert molecules to moles (via Avogadro's number) and then (2) convert moles to grams (via molar mass from periodic table).

Molar Mass (H₃PO₄): 3(1.008 g/mol) + 30.974 g/mol + 4(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mas (H₃PO₄): 97.99 g/mol

6.534 x 10²⁴ molecules H₃PO₄                       1 mole                         97.99 g
---------------------------------------------  x  -------------------------------------  x  --------------
                                                            6.022 x 10²³ molecules          1 mole

= 1,063 grams H₃PO₄

Liquid hexane
maks197457 [2]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of H_2O produced is 2.52 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass.  The equation used is:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}} ......(1)

  • <u>For hexane:</u>

Given mass of hexane = 1.72 g

Molar mass of hexane = 86.18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of hexane}=\frac{1.72g}{86.18g/mol}=0.020mol

  • <u>For oxygen gas:</u>

Given mass of oxygen gas = 8.0 g

Molar mass of oxygen gas= 32 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of water}=\frac{8.0g}{32g/mol}=0.25mol

The chemical equation for the combustion of hexane follows:

2C_6H_{14}+19O_2\rightarrow 12CO_2+14H_2O

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of hexane reacts with 19 moles of oxygen gas

So, 0.020 moles of hexane will react with = \frac{19}{2}\times 0.020=0.19mol of oxygen gas

As the given amount of oxygen gas is more than the required amount. Thus, it is present in excess and is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hexane is considered a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of the product.

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of hexane produces 14 moles of H_2O

So, 0.020 moles of hexane will produce = \frac{14}{2}\times 0.020=0.14mol of H_2O

We know, molar mass of H_2O = 18 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Mass of }H_2O=(0.14mol\times 18g/mol)=2.52g

Hence, the mass of H_2O produced is 2.52 g
