Answer:
How much heat energy required to convert following?
How much heat energy, in kilojoules, is required to convert 47.0 g of ice at -18.0 C to water at 25.0 C ?
Specific Heat of Ice - 2.09 j/g * c
This is how I did it and the answer is wrong...Please check and correct me
Q = m * Cice * Change in Temp
Q = (47.0 g)(2.09 J/g*c)(43) = 4222.6 J * 0.001 kj / j = 4.22 kj
Pure substances are substances which are homogenous in nature. They either consists of atoms of 1 kind or molecules of 1 kind. Atoms are seen in elements, where as molecules are seen in compounds like Acids, Bases, etc.
They mostly have fixed properties like boiling and melting points and are uniform in nature. :D
<span>Pre-1982 definition of STP: 37 g/mol
Post-1982 definition of STP: 38 g/mol
This problem is somewhat ambiguous because the definition of STP changed in 1982. Prior to 1982, the definition was 273.15 K at a pressure of 1 atmosphere (101325 Pascals). Since 1982, the definition is 273.15 K at a pressure of exactly 100000 Pascals). Because of those 2 different definitions, the volume of 1 mole of gas is either 22.414 Liters (pre 1982 definition), or 22.71098 liters (post 1982 definition). And finally, there's entirely too many text books out there that still use the 35 year obsolete definition. So let's solve this problem using both definitions and you need to pick the correct answer for the text book you're using.
First, determine how many moles of gas you have. Just simply divide the volume you have by the molar volume.
Pre-1982: 2.1 / 22.414 = 0.093691443 moles
Post-1982: 2.1 / 22.71098 = 0.092466287 moles
Now determine the molar mass. Simply divide the mass by the moles. So
Pre-1982: 3.5 g / 0.093691443 moles = 37.35666667 g/mol
Post-1982: 3.5 g / 0.092466287 moles = 37.85163333 g/mol
Finally, round to 2 significant figures. So
Pre-1982: 37 g/mol
Post-1982: 38 g/mol</span>
