I'd say no because the only pure substances are elements
Answer:
False
Explanation:
It is not true that this is an example of a chemical reaction. This is a typical example of physical reaction.
Most physical changes are often phase changes.
- A phase change is a change in the physical state of a body.
- In this change, it is from solid to liquid.
- Now new substances are formed.
- When substances are changed from one form to another, it is a physical change.
In a chemical change, a new substance is formed at the end of the process.
Answer:
140. J/g*K
Explanation:
To find the specific heat capacity, you need to use the following equation:
Q = mcΔT
In this equation,
-----> Q = energy/heat (J)
-----> m = mass (g)
-----> c = specific heat (J/mole*K)
-----> ΔT = change in temperature (K)
Before you can use the equation above, you need to (1) convert kg to grams, then (2) convert grams to moles (via molar mass), and then (3) convert Celsius to Kelvin. The final answer should have 3 significant figures.
1.11 kg C₄H₈O₂ x 1,000 = 1110 g
Molar Mass (C₄H₈O₂): 4(12.01 g/mol) + 8(1.008 g/mol) + 2(16.00 g/mol)
Molar Mass (C₄H₈O₂): 88.104 g/mol
1110 grams C₄H₈O₂ 1 mole
------------------------------ x ------------------------- = 12.6 moles C₄H₈O₂
88.104 grams
34.5 °C + 273 = 307.5 K
52.3 °C + 273 = 325.3 K
Q = mcΔT <----- Equation
3.14 x 10⁴ J = (12.6 moles)c(325.3 K - 307.5 K) <----- Insert values
3.14 x 10⁴ J = (12.6 moles)c(17.8) <----- Subtract
3.14 x 10⁴ J = (224.28)c <----- Multiply 12.6 and 17.8
140. = c <----- Divide both sides by 224.28
**this answer may be slightly off due to using different molar masses/Kelvin conversions**
