Thermal expansion<span> is the tendency of matter to change in shape, area, and volume in response to a change in temperature, through heat transfer. Temperature is a monotonic function of the average molecular kinetic energy of a substance. When a substance is heated, the kinetic energy of its molecules increases.</span>

a piece of newly synthesized material of mass 25.0 g at 80.0C is placed in a calorimeter containing 100.0 g of water at 20.0C. I
serg [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 1.194 J/g.ºC

Explanation:

The heat released by the material is absorbed by the water. We put a minus sign (-) for a released heat and a plus sign (+) for an absorbed heat.

We know the mass of the material (mass mat= 25.0 g) and the mass of water (mass H20= 100.0 g) and the specific heat capacity of water is known (Shw=4.18 J/g.ºC), so we can equal the heat released by the material and the heat absorbed by water y calculate the specific heat capacity of the material (Shm) as follows:

heat released by material = heat absorbed by water

-(mass material x Shm x ΔT)= mass water x Shw x ΔT

-(25.0 g x Shm x (24ºC - 80ºC)= 100.0 g x 4.18 J/g.ºC  x (24ºC-20ºC)

25.0 g x Shm x (56ºC) =  100.0 g x 4.18 J/g.ºC x 4ºC

⇒Shm= (100.0 g x 4.18 J/g.ºC x 4ºC)/(25.0 g x 56ºC)

 Shm= 1.194 J/g.ºC

How many moles are contained in a 4.67-l sample of gas at 30 c and 199 kpa?
valentina_108 [34]

Using ideal gas equation,

PV=nRT

P=199 kpa

V=4.67 L

T=30+273K= 303K

n= number of moles of gas

R=8.321 L·kPa·K-1·mol-1

So using ideal gas equation,

n=PV/RT

=199*4.67/8.321*303\

=0.37 mol
