When a 0.245-g sample of benzoic acid is combusted in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature rises 1.643 ∘C . When a 0.260-g sample

of caffeine, C8H10O2N4, is burned, the temperature rises 1.436 ∘C . Using the value 26.38 kJ/g for the heat of combustion of benzoic acid, calculate the heat of combustion per mole of caffeine at constant volume.

Answer:

The heat of combustion per moles of caffeine is 4220 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

⇒ When  benzoic acid sample of 0.245 grams is burned the temperature rise is 1.643 °C

⇒ When 0.260 gram of caffeine is burned, the temperature rise is 1.436 °C

⇒ Heat of combustion of benzoic acid = 26.38 kJ/g

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate the heat released: for combustion of benzoic acid

0.245 g benzoic acid *  26.38 kJ/g = 6.4631 kJ

<u>Step 3</u>: Calculate the heat capacity of the calorimeter:

c = Q/ΔT

Q = 6.4631 kJ   / 1.643°C = 3.934 kJ/ °C

<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate moles of a 0.260 g sample of caffeine:

Moles caffeine = Mass caffeine / Molar mass caffeine

0.260 grams/ 194.19 g/mol  = 0.0013389 moles

Step 5: Calculate heat released: for combustion of caffeine

Q = c * ΔT

Q = 3.934 kJ/°C * 1.436 °C = 5.65 kJ

Step 6: Calculate the heat of combustion per mole of caffeine  

5.65 kJ  /  0.0013389 moles = 4219.9 kJ/mol  ≈ 4220 kJ/mol

The heat of combustion per moles of caffeine is 4220 kJ/mol

Complete the following sentences:
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) In an exothermic reaction, the energy transferred to the surroundings from forming new bonds is ___more____ than the energy needed to break existing bonds.  

b) In an endothermic reaction, the energy transferred to the surroundings from forming new bonds is ___less____ than the energy needed to break existing bonds.  

c) The energy change of an exothermic reaction has a _____negative_______ sign.  

d) The energy change of an endothermic reaction has a ____positive________ sign.

The energy changes occur during the bonds formation and bonds breaking.

There are two types of reaction endothermic and exothermic reaction.

Endothermic reactions:

The type of reactions in which energy is absorbed are called endothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bond are higher than the energy released during bond formation.

For example:

C + H₂O   →  CO  + H₂

ΔH = +131 kj/mol

it can be written as,

C +  H₂O  + 131 kj/mol  →  CO  + H₂

Exothermic reaction:

The type of reactions in which energy is released are called exothermic reactions.

In this type of reaction energy needed to break the bonds are less than the energy released during the bond formation.

For example:

Chemical equation:

C + O₂   →  CO₂

ΔH = -393 Kj/mol

it can be written as,

C + O₂   →  CO₂ + 393 Kj/mol

At what point is base no longer added during a titration
maria [59]
When you doing a titration, you need to use an indicator to confirm whether the reaction is completed. When the indicator has the color change and will not change back in one minute, the reaction is finished and you don't need to add more.

Find the density of a cube on Earth that weighs 1.5 kg and has a side-length of 10 cm.
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

1500kg/m^3

Explanation:

Formula:

d=m/v

Given:

m=1.5kg

v=1000cm^3

(The side length of a cube is always equal to the others)

Required:

d=?

Solution:

d=m/v

d=1.5kg/1000cm^3

d=1.5kg/0.001m^3

d=1500kg/m^3

Hope this helps ;) ❤❤❤

A compound of mercury and oxygen is heated in order to decompose the compound. A 4.08 grams sample of mercury oxide upon heating
arlik [135]

Answer:

HgO (empirical formula)

Explanation:

4.08 - 3.78 = 0.3g (oxygen)

(\frac{4.08}{201})   \:  \:  \:  (\frac{0.3}{16} )

0.02 : 0.02

0.02/0.02 : 0.02/0.02

1 : 1 (ratio)

HgO ( empirical formula)

2HgO ----> 2Hg + O2 ( your equation correct)
