A 72.0-gram piece of metal at 96.0 °C is placed in 130.0 g of water in a calorimeter at 25.5 °C. The final temperature in the ca

lorimeter is 31.0 °C. Determine the specific heat of the metal. Show your work by listing various steps, and explain how the law of conservation of energy applies to this situation.

Answer: The answer is S = 0.1528 cal/g °C

Explanation:

By the law of conservation of energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed.

So, energy lost by metal pieces is equal to the energy gained by water in the calorimeter.

Specific heat of water is 1 cal/g °C

⇒ heat energy  Q = mSΔT, where m = mass of a substance

                                                        S = specific heat

                                                        ΔT = change in temperature

Now, the heat lost by metal piece, Q = 72×S×(96-31)

                                                      = 4680×S cal

Heat gained by water, Q = 130×1×(31-25.5)

                                        = 715 cal

⇒ 4680×S = 715.

⇒ S = 0.1528 cal/g °C.

Complete this equation for the dissociation of the electrolyte NaCl(aq). Omit water from the equation because it is understood t
ella [17]

1. Answer;

Equation;

-NaCl(aq) → Na{+}(aq) + Cl{-}(aq)

Explanation;

-The polar property of water allows ionic compounds such as sodium chloride to dissolve in water. (sodium chloride is an ionic compound).

-Sodium chloride dissociates in water into sodium ions and chloride ions as shown by the equation. Water molecules surrounds the negatively charged chloride ions and positive sodium ions and pulls them away into solution.

2. Answer;

Equation;

Fe(ClO4)3(aq) → Fe 3+(aq) + 3ClO4 - (aq)

Explanation;

Iron (iii) perchlorate (Fe(ClO4)3 dissociates in water into iron (iii) ion and perchlorate ion. Iron (iii) ion is positively charged while the perchlorate ion is negatively charged, they are pulled apart by the polar water molecules, a process called dissociation.

1.00 M CaCl2 Density = 1.07 g/mL
Lesechka [4]

Explanation:

Molarity of solution = 1.00 M = 1.00 mol/L

In 1 L of solution 1.00 moles of calcium chloride is present.

Mass of solute or calcium chloride = m

m = 1 mol\times 111 g/mol = 111 g

Mass of solution = M

Volume of solution = V = 1L = 1000 mL

Density of solution , d= 1.07 g/mL

M=d\times V=1.07 g/mL\times 1000 mL=1,070 g

1) The value of %(m/M):

\frac{m}{M}\times 100=\frac{111 g}{1,070 g}\times 100=10.37\%

2) The value of %(m/V):

\frac{m}{V}\times 100=\frac{111 g}{1000 L}\times 100=11.1\%

Molality = \frac{\text{Moles of compound }}{\text{mass of solvent in kg}}

Normality=\frac{\text{Moles of compound }}{n\times \text{volume of solution in L}}

n = Equivalent mass

n = \frac{\text{molar mass of ion}}{\text{charge on an ion}}

3) Normality of calcium ions:

Moles of calcium ion = 1 mol (1 CaCl_2 mole has 1 mole of calcium ion)

n=\frac{40 g/mol}{2}=20

=\frac{1 mol}{20 g/mol\times 1L}=0.050 N

4) Normality of chlorine ions:

Moles of chlorine ion = 2 mol (1 CaCl_2 mole has 2 mole of chlorine ion)

n=\frac{35.5 g/mol}{1}=35.5

=\frac{2 mol}{35.5 g/mol\times 1L}=0.056 N

Moles of calcium chloride = 1.00 mol

Mass of solvent =  Mass of solution - mass of solute

= 1,070 g - 111 g = 959  g = 0.959 kg ( 1 g =0.001 kg)

5) Molality of the solution :

\frac{1 mol}{0.959 kg}=1.043 mol/kg

Moles of calcium chloride = n_1=1mol

Mass of solvent = 959 g

Moles of water = n_2=\frac{959 g}{18 g/mol}=53.28 mol

Mass of solvent = 959 g

6) Mole fraction of calcium chloride =

\chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}=\frac{1mol}{1 mol+53.28 mol}=0.01842

7) Mole fraction of water =

\chi_2=\frac{n_2}{n_1+n_2}=\frac{53.28 mol}{1mol+53.28 mol}=0.9816

8) Mass of solution = m'

Volume of the solution= v = 100 mL

Density of solution = d = 1.07 g/mL

m'=d\times v=1.07 g/ml\times 100 g= 107 g

Mass of 100 mL of this solution 107 grams of solution.

9) Volume of solution = V = 100 mL

Mass of solution = M'' = 107 g

Mass of solute = m

The value of %(m/V) of solution = 11.1%

11.1\%=\frac{m}{100 mL}\times 100

m = 11.1 g

Mass of solvent = M''- m = 107 g -11.1 g = 95.9 g

95.9 grams of water was present in 100 mL of given solution.

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

coral bleaching is when the temperature of the water changes (even slight changes in temperature effect coral) and the coral reacts negatively to it causing it to die. unfortunately corals cannot recover once they have been bleached.
