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

olasank [31]

The volume (in mL) of methylergonovine the nurse should draw up in the syringeis is 0.25 mL

<h3>What is density? </h3>

The density of a substance is simply defined as the mass of the subtance per unit volume of the substance. Mathematically, it can be expressed as

Density = mass / volume

With the concept of density, we can obtain the volume of methylergonovine. Details below

<h3>How to determine the volume </h3>

The following data were obtained from the question:

  • Mass of methylergonovine = 0.2 mg
  • Density of methylergonovine = 0.8 mg/mL
  • Volume of methylergonovine =?

Density = mass / volume

Cross multiply

Density × volume = mass

Divide both sides by density

Volume = mass / density

Volume = 0.2 / 0.8

Volume of methylergonovine = 0.25 mL

What is a caustic substance?
Hunter-Best [27]

However, some common household products, including drain and toilet bowl cleaners and some dishwasher detergents, contain damaging caustic substances, such as sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid. Caustic substances (strong acids and alkalis), when swallowed, can burn the tongue, mouth, esophagus, and stomach.

A solution is made by mixing 55.g of thiophene C4H4S and 65.g of acetyl bromide CH3COBr.
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

Mole fraction of C₄H₄S = 0.55

Explanation:

Mole fraction is moles of solute / Total moles

Total moles are the sum of moles of solute + moles of solvent.

Let's find out the moles of our solute and our solvent.

Mass of solute: 55g

Mass of solvent: 65g

Mol = Mass / molar mass

55 g / 84.06 g/mol = 0.654 moles of C₄H₄S

65 g /123 g/mol = 0.529 moles of C₂H₃BrO

Total moles = 0.654 + 0.529 = 1.183 moles

Mole fraction of thiophene = Moles of tiophene / Total moles

0.654 / 1.183 = 0.55
