Answer:

_{97}^{345}\textrm{Bk}

Explanation:

In a nuclear reaction, the total mass and total atomic number remains the same.

Am has an atomic number of 95. So correct reaction is:-

^{343}_{95}\textrm{Am}+^{4}_{2}\textrm{He}\rightarrow ^A_Z\textrm{X}+2^1_0\textrm{n}

To calculate A:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

343 + 4 = A + 2

A = 345

To calculate Z:

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

95 + 2 = Z + 0

Z = 97

Hence, the isotopic symbol of unknown element is _{97}^{345}\textrm{Bk}

A 20g piece of lead absorbs 566 joules of heat and its temperature changes from 35 oC to 195 oC. Calculate the specific heat.
Alja [10]

Answer:

  • <u>Question 1: 0.2J/(gºC)</u>
  • <u>Question 2: 6,000J</u>
  • <u>Question 3: 300J</u>
  • <u>Question 4: 80g</u>
  • <u>Question 5: 74ºC</u>
  • <u>Question 6: 50g</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Question 1.<em> A 20g piece of lead absorbs 566 joules of heat and its temperature changes from 35º oC to 195º C. Calculate the specific heat.</em>

<em />

The thermal energy equation is:

  • Q = m × C × ΔT

<em />

Substitute and solve for C:

  • 566J = 20g × C × (195ºC - 35ºC)
  • C = 566J / (20g × 160ºC)
  • C = 0.177 J/(gºC) ≈ 0.2J/(gºC)

<em />

You must round to one significant figure because one factor has one significant figure).

<em />

<em />

Qustion 2.<em> 40g of water is heat at 40ºC and the temperature rise to 75ºC. What is the amount of heat needed for the temperature to rise? (specific heat of water is 4.184 J/gºC)</em>

<em />

Use the thermal energy equation again:

  • Q = m × C × ΔT

<em />

Substitute and compute:

  • Q = 40g × 4.184 J/gºC × (75ºC - 40ºC)
  • Q = 5,857.6J

Round to one significant figure: 6,000J

<em />

Question 3. <em>Graphite has a mass of 50g and a specific heat of 0.420 J/gºC. If graphite is cooled from 50ºC to 35ºC, how much energy was lost?</em>

  • Q = m × C × ΔT
  • Q = 50g × 0.420J/gºC × (35ºC - 50ºC)
  • Q = 315J

Round to one significant figure (because 50g has one significant figure)

  • Q = 300J

<em />

Question 4.<em> </em><em>Iron has a specific heat of 0.712 J/gºC. A piece of iron absorbs 3000J of energy and undergoes a temperature change totaling 50ºC, What is the mass of iron?</em>

<em />

  • Q = m × C × ΔT

Solve for m:

  • m = Q / (C × ΔT)

Substitute and compute:

  • m = 3,000J / (0.712J/gºC × 50ºC)
  • m = 84.26 g ≈ 80 g (rounded to one significant figure, because the factor 3,000J has one significant figure).

Question 5. <em>If 400g of an unknown solution at 70ºC loses 7500 J of heat, what is the final temperature of the unknown solution. The unknown solution has a specific heat of 4.184 J/gºC.</em>

<em />

  • Q = m × C × ΔT

<em />

Q is negative, since it is released.

Substitute and solve for T:

  • - 7,500J = 400g × 4.184J/gºC × (T - 70ºC)

  • T = - 7500J / 400g × 4.184J/gºC) + 70ºC

  • T = 74ºC

<em />

If you round to one significant figure you cannot tell the temperature difference, thus leave two significant figures.

<em />

Question 6. <em>How many grams of water would require 9500J of heat to raise the temperature from 50ºC to 100ºC</em>

  • Q = m × C × ΔT

Subsitute:

  • 9,500J = m × 4.184J/gºC × (100ºC - 50ºC)

Solve for m and compute:

  • m = 9,500J / (4.184J/gºC × 50ºC)

  • m = 45g

Since the temperatures indicate one singificant figure, the mass should be rounded to one significant figure:

  • m = 50g.

Explain how synthesis and decomposition reactions can be reverse of one another
lana66690 [7]

Decompostion reaction have the general chemical reaction of: AB = A + B while synthesis reactions are of the general equation A + B = AB. These reaction can be the reverse of each other because ones building a compound (synthesis) and ones breaking down a compound (decomposition). For example, when reacting carbon and oxygen for a synthesis reaction we have: C + O2 = CO2 and for a decomposition reaction we have: CO2 = C + O2. Thus, these two reactions are the reverse of each other.

Propane (C3H8) can be burned to produce heat for homes. The products of the reaction are CO2 and H2O. For complete combustion to
Natalija [7]

Answer:

1- 3 Moles of CO2  

2- 132 g of CO2  

3- 105,6 g of CO2

4- Limiting Reagent O2

<u>Products form based on limiting reagent (384g O2) :</u>

CO2: 316,8 g

H2O: 172,8 g

<u>Products form based on C3H8 (132,33 g):</u>

CO2: 396,99 g

H2O: 216,54 g  

Explanation:

<u>Atomic Masses:</u>

C: 12

H: 1

O: 16

<u>Molecular weights:</u>

C3H8: 44 g

O2: 32 g

H2O: 18 g

CO2: 44 g

C3H8 + 5 O2⇒ 3 CO2 + 4 H2O

C3H8 (44g)+ O2 (160 g) ⇒ CO2 (132 g) + H2O (72 g)

In 5 moles of O2 are produced 3 moles of CO2, equivalent to 132 g

For 160g of O2 are produced 132 g of CO2, so 128 g of O2

160 g  O2 ⇒ 132 g CO2

128 g  O2⇒ × = 105,6 g CO2

(128×132÷160= 105,6)

The limiting reagent is the substance that is totally consumed when the chemical reaction is complete. The amount of product formed is limited by this reagent, because the reaction cannot continue without it.

If I have 132,33 g of C3H8 and 384 g O2 we can calculate:

For          44 g of CH3H8  ⇒160 g of O2

With   132,33 g of CH3H8 ⇒ ×= 481,2 g of O2

(132,33×160÷44=481,2)

As this amount exceeds the quantity of O2 that we have, we can assume that the 384 g O2 will be totally consumed.

<u>Calculations of the products formed in base of quantity of O2 (limiting reagent):</u>

160 g  O2 ⇒ 132 g CO2

384 g  O2⇒ × = 316,8 g CO2

(384×132÷160= 316,8)

160 g  O2 ⇒ 72 g H2O

384 g  O2⇒ × = 172,8 g H2O

(384×72÷160= 172,8)

<u>Calculations of the products formed in base of quantity of C3H8 (excess reagent):</u>

     44 g  C3H8 ⇒ 132 g CO2

132,33 g  C3H8 ⇒ × = 396,99 g CO2

(132,33×132÷44=396,99)

     44 g C3H8 ⇒ 72 g H2O

132,33 g  C3H8⇒ × = 216,54 g H2O

(132,33×72÷44= 216,54)
