A piece of iron metal is heated to 155 degrees C and placed into a calorimeter that contains 50.0 mL of water at 18.7 degrees C.

The temperature of the water rises to 26.4 degrees C. The specific heat of iron of iron is 0.444 J/g degrees C. Assuming no loss of heat to the surroundings, what is the mass of the iron?
A-26.2 g
B-28.3 g
C-29.2 g
D-28.2 g

Answer:

D = 28.2g

Explanation:

Initial temperature of metal (T1) = 155°C

Initial Temperature of calorimeter (T2) = 18.7°C

Final temperature of solution (T3) = 26.4°C

Specific heat capacity of water (C2) = 4.184J/g°C

Specific heat capacity of metal (C1) = 0.444J/g°C

Volume of water = 50.0mL

Assuming no heat loss

Heat energy lost by metal = heat energy gain by water + calorimeter

Heat energy (Q) = MC∇T

M = mass

C = specific heat capacity

∇T = change in temperature

Mass of metal = M1

Mass of water = M2

Density = mass / volume

Mass = density * volume

Density of water = 1g/mL

Mass(M2) = 1 * 50

Mass = 50g

Heat loss by the metal = heat gain by water + calorimeter

M1C1(T1 - T3) = M2C2(T3 - T2)

M1 * 0.444 * (155 - 26.4) = 50 * 4.184 * (26.4 - 18.7)

0.444M1 * 128.6 = 209.2 * 7.7

57.0984M1 = 1610.84

M1 = 1610.84 / 57.0984

M1 = 28.21g

The mass of the metal is 28.21g

Which is the correct Lewis structure for carbon monoxide?
LuckyWell [14K]
<span>The Lewis structure for CO has 10 valence electrons. For the CO Lewis structure you'll need a triple bond between the Carbon and Oxygen atoms in order to satisfy the octets of each atom while still using the 10 valence electrons available for the CO molecule.</span>

What mass of copper is deposited when a current of 10.0a is passed through a solution of copper(ii) nitrate for 30.6 seconds?
asambeis [7]
Data Given:

Time = t = 30.6 s

Current = I = 10 A

Faradays Constant = F = 96500

Chemical equivalent = e = 63.54/2 = 31.77 g

Amount Deposited = W = ?

Solution:
             According to Faraday's Law,

                                          W  =  I t e / F

Putting Values,
 
                            W  =  (10 A × 30.6 s × 31.77 g) ÷ 96500

                            W  =  0.100 g

Result:
           0.100 g of Cu
²⁺ is deposited.
