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

Schach [20]

Answer:

The empirical formula is same as the molecular formula = C6H10S2O

Explanation:

we start by dividing the percentage of each of the elements by their atomic mass

Carbon = 44.4/12 = 3.7

Hydrogen = 6.21/1 = 6.21

Sulphur = 39.5/32 = 1.234375

oxygen = 9.89/16 = 0.618125

That of oxygen is smallest so we divide all by that of oxygen

C = 3.7 / 0.618125 = 6

H = 6.21/ 0.618125 = 10

S = 1.234375/ 0.618125 = 2

Automatically, oxygen is 1

So the empirical formula is;

C6H10S2O

Let’s get its molecular formula. We multiply each of the subscript by the number;

(72 + 10 + 64 + 16)n= 162

162n = 162

n = 1

So the molecular formula is same as the empirical formula

Write the balanced equation for each reaction. Phases are optional.
Rudiy27

Answer:

1. CO₃⁻²  +  H₂O  ⇄  HCO₃⁻  +  OH⁻

2. HCO₃⁻ +  H₂O  ⇄  H₂CO₃  +  OH⁻  

3.  H₂CO₃ →  H₂O  + CO₂

Basic solution

Explanation:

Brønsted Lowry theory:

Acid → Release a proton

Base → Accept a proton

1. CO₃⁻²  +  H₂O  ⇄  HCO₃⁻  +  OH⁻

Carbonate takes a proton from the water

2.  HCO₃⁻ +  H₂O  ⇄  H₂CO₃  +  OH⁻  

Bicarbonate takesa proton from the water to produce carbonic acid.

3. H₂CO₃ →  H₂O  + CO₂

Carbonate acid decomposes into CO₂ and H₂O

In the first reaction, when the carbonate takes a proton from the water, water releases OH⁻, so the solution is basic.
