Answer:

The specific heat of aluminium is 0.906 J/g°C

Explanation:

Step 1: data given

Mass of aluminium = 20.0 grams

Temperature = 5.00 °C

Mass of water = 20.2 grams

Temperature of water = 90.00 °C

The final temperature = 75.00 °C

Specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

Step 2: calculate the specific heat of aluminium

heat won = heat lost

Qaluminium = -Qwater

Q = m*c* ΔT

m(aluminium * c(aluminium) *ΔT(aluminium = -m(water) * c(water) *ΔT(water)

⇒with m(aluminium) = mass of aluminium = 20.0 grams

⇒with c(aluminium) = the specific heat of aluminium = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with ΔT(aluminium) = the change of temperature = T2 - T1 = 75.00 °C - 5.00 °C = 70.00 °C

⇒with m(water) = the mass of water = 20.2 grams

⇒with c(water) = the specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒with ΔT(water) = T2 - T1 = 75.00°C - 90.00 °C = -15.00 °C

20.0 * c(aluminium) * 70.00 = -20.2 * 4.184 * -15.00

c(aluminium) = 0.906 J/g°C

The specific heat of aluminium is 0.906 J/g°C

What volume of oxygen (in L) is produced
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

12.36 L.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 147.1 g of lead(II) nitrate, Pb(NO₃)₂. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 207.2 + 2[14.01 + (16×3)]

= 207.2 + 2[14.01 + 48]

= 207.2 + 2[62.01]

= 207.2 + 124.02

= 331.22 g/mol

Mass of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 147.1 g

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ =?

Mole = mass / Molar mass

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 147.1 / 331.22

Mole of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 1.104 moles.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of oxygen gas, O₂, produce from the reaction. This can be obtained as follow:

2Pb(NO₃)₂ —> 2PbO + 4NO₂ + O₂

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of Pb(NO₃)₂ decomposed to produce 1 mole of O₂.

Therefore, 1.104 moles of Pb(NO₃)₂ will decompose to produce = (1.104 × 1)/2 = 0.552 mole of O₂.

Finally, we shall determine the volume occupied by 0.552 mole of oxygen gas, O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

1 mole of O₂ occupied 22.4 L at STP.

Therefore, 0.552 mole of O₂ will occupy = 0.552 × 22.4 = 12.36 L at STP.

Thus, the volume of oxygen gas, O₂ produced is 12.36 L.
