A piece of an unknown substance weighing 124.0 grams is heated in boiling water to 100.0oc. when the substance is placed in a ca

lorimeter containing 300.0 grams of water, the temperature of the water increased from 20.0oc to 26.0oc. what is the specific heat of the unknown substance, assuming all the heat is transferred to the water?

The heat cause 300g water temperature increase from 20 to 26 celcius. The heat transferred would be: 300g * (26 °C -20 °C) *4.2 joule/gram °C= 7560J

The unknown substance is added to the water, so its final temperature should be the same as the water. The calculation would be:

7560J= 124g * (100-26)* specific heat

specific heat= 7560J / 124g / 74 °C= 0.8238 J/gram °C

Vanillin (used to flavor vanilla ice cream and other foods) is the substance whose aroma the human nose detects in the smallest
balu736 [363]

Answer:

Cost to supply enough vanillin is 3.2\$

Explanation:

Threshold limit of vanillin in air is 2.0\times 10^{-11}g per litre means there should be 2.0\times 10^{-11}g of vanillin in 1L of air to detect aroma of vanillin.

1ft^{3}=28.32L

So, 5.0\times 10^{7}ft^{3}=(5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)L

So amount of vanillin should be present to detect = (2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)g

As cost of 50 g vanillin is 112\$ therefore cost of  (2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)gvanillin = (2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32\times 112)\$ = 3.2\$
