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

An endothermic dissolution process a. absorbs energy as heat and has positive enthalpy of solution. b. releases energy as heat a
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

a. absorbs energy as heat and has positive enthalpy of solution.

Explanation:

A reaction can either be exothermic or endothermic. An endothermic reaction, as the dissolution described in the question, is that which absorbs heat energy from the surroundings in order to start the reaction.

Because an endothermic reaction makes heat lost from the surroundings, the enthalpy (∆H) of the solution will be positive (+). ∆H is got by finding the difference between the enthalpy of the reactants and products and since the enthalpy of a product in endothermic reaction is more, the enthalpy change (∆T) will be positive.

. Consider the following half-reactions:
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

d. Fe(s) and Al(s)

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

In the redox reaction, it is also known  

Reducing agents are substances that experience oxidation  

Oxidizing agents are substances that experience reduction

The metal activity series is expressed in voltaic series  

<em>Li-K-Ba-Ca-Na-Mg-Al-Mn- (H2O) -Zn-Cr-Fe-Cd-Co-Ni-Sn-Pb- (H) -Cu-Hg-Ag-Pt-Au  </em>

The more to the left, the metal is more reactive (easily release electrons) and the stronger reducing agent  

The more to the right, the metal is less reactive (harder to release electrons) and the stronger oxidizing agent

So that the metal located on the left can push the metal on the right in the redox reaction  

The electrodes which are easier to reduce than hydrogen (H), have E cells = +

The electrodes which are easier to oxidize than hydrogen have a sign E cell = -

So the above metals or metal ions will reduce Pb²⁺ (aq) will be located to the left of the Pb in the voltaic series or which have a more negative E cell value (greater reduction power)

The metal  : d. Fe(s) and Al(s)

HELPPPP PLEASE THIS IS FOR THE CATALYSTS LAB
marishachu [46]

Answer:

the first thing you do is do your experiment then title it. then state the purpose of the experiment. included a summary of the experiment. make a list of the materials you used. present all the steps in order to make the experiment possible. note any changes to the original procedure. this is basically the steps you have to do in order to make your scientific experiment.
