A 50.0 mL sample of a 1.00 M solution of CuSO4 is mixed with 50.0 mL of 2.00 M KOH in a calorimeter. The temperature of both sol

utions was 20.2 degree celsious before mixing and 26.3 degree celsious after mixing . The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 12.1 J/K. From the data, calculate delta Hfor the process
CuSO4(1 M)+2KOH(2 M)----------------------Cu(OH)2(s)+K2SO4(0.5 M)
Assume that the specific heat and density of the solution after mixing are the same as those of pure water and that the volumes are additive.

Answer : The enthalpy change for the process is 52.5 kJ/mole.

Explanation :

Heat released by the reaction = Heat absorbed by the calorimeter + Heat absorbed by the solution

q=[q_1+q_2]

q=[c_1\times \Delta T+m_2\times c_2\times \Delta T]

where,

q = heat released by the reaction

q_1 = heat absorbed by the calorimeter

q_2 = heat absorbed by the solution

c_1 = specific heat of calorimeter = 12.1J/^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_2 = mass of water or solution = Density\times Volume=1/mL\times 100.0mL=100.0g

\Delta T = change in temperature = T_2-T_1=(26.3-20.2)^oC=6.1^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=[(12.1J/^oC\times 6.1^oC)+(100.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times 6.1^oC)]

q=2623.61J

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy change for the process.

\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy change = ?

q = heat released = 2626.61 J

n = number of moles of copper sulfate used = Concentration\times Volume=1M\times 0.050L=0.050mole

\Delta H=\frac{2623.61J}{0.050mole}=52472.2J/mole=52.5kJ/mole

Therefore, the enthalpy change for the process is 52.5 kJ/mole.

Using the balanced equation below, how many moles of water can be produced when 4 grams of Hydrogen react? 2H2(g)+O2(g) —&gt; 2H
gavmur [86]

Answer:

4 × 10 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 H₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ 2 H₂O(I)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 4 g of H₂

The molar mass of H₂ is 2.02 g/mol.

4 g × 1 mol/2.02 g = 2 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of H₂O produced from 2 moles of H₂

The molar ratio of H₂ to H₂O is 2:2. The moles of H₂O produced are 2/2 × 2 mol = 2 mol.

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 2 moles of H₂O

The molar mass of H₂O is 18.02 g/mol.

2 mol × 18.02 g/mol = 4 × 10 g
