A 140.0-g sample of water at 25.0°c is mixed with 111.7 g of a certain metal at 100.0°c. after thermal equilibrium is establishe

d, the (final) temperature of the mixture is 29.6°c. what is the specific heat capacity of the metal, assuming it is constant over the temperature range concerned?

Mass of water = 140.0 g

Initial temperature of water = 25.0°C

Mass of a certain metal = 111.7 g

Initial temperature of metal = 100.0°C

Final temperature of water and metal = 29.6°C

Since the metal is at a higher initial temperature it will lose heat and the water having a lower initial temperature will gain heat.  

Thus, heat lost by metal = Heat gained by water  

formula: (mass metal )(initialT - finalT)( Cp metal ) = ( mass water )(finalT- initalT)( Cp water)  

After plugging in the given data we get,  

(111.7g )(100 °C -29.6°C)( Cp metal) = (140.0g )(29.6°C-25.0°C) (4.184 J/g°C)  

(111.7g )(70.4°C)( Cp metal )=(140.0g )(4.6°C)(4.184 J/g°C)  

(7863.7 g°C) (Cp metal) = 2694.5 J  

(Cp metal) =2694.5 J/ 7863.7 g°C  

Thus, Cp of metal = 0.3427 J/g°C

The volume of a sample of gas is 0.5 L and the pressure is 0.98 atm. The volume is increased to 1.0 L. Show the set
meriva

Given,

P1 = 0.98 atm

V1 = 0.5 L

V2 = 1.0 L

P2 = ?

Solution,

According to Boyle's Law,

P1V1 = P2V2

0.98 × 0.5 = 1.0 × P2

P2 = 0.98 × 0.5 × 1.0

P2 = 0.49 atm

Answer - The new pressure is 0.49 atm.

How many moles of hydrogen gas will form 1.35 L of a 2.75 M Hcl solution reacts?
weeeeeb [17]
<span>1.86 moles of hydrogen gas. Since what the HCl is reacting with hasn't been mentioned, I'll assume zine. In that case, the balanced reaction is Zn + 2HCl ==> ZnCl2 + H2 So for every 2 moles of HCl used, 1 mole of hydrogen gas will be generated. So let's figure out how many moles of HCl we have and then divide by 2. Molarity is defined as moles/liter. So a 2.75 M HCl solution has 2.75 moles of HCl per liter. So the total number of moles we have is: 2.75 mole/L * 1.35 L = 3.7125 mol And since we get 1 mole H2 per mole of HCl, we get: 3.7125 mol / 2 = 1.85625 mol Rounding to 3 significant figures gives us 1.86 moles of hydrogen gas.</span>
