A 74.0-gram piece of metal at 94.0 °C is placed in 120.0 g of water in a calorimeter at 26.5 °C. The final temperature in the ca

lorimeter is 32.0 °C. Determine the specific heat of the metal. Show your work by listing various steps, and explain how the law of conservation of energy applies to this situation.
** I know someone already answered this on another post, but I think their answer is incorrect** I did it and think I have the right answer, but I want to double check it. Thanks!

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat lost by metal = mass x specific heat x fall in temperature

= 74 x S x ( 94 - 32 )

= 4588 S

heat gained by water = mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

= 120 x 1 x ( 32 - 26.5 )   ( specific heat of water is 1 cals / gm )

= 660

Heat lost = heat gained

4588S = 660

S = .14 cal /gm .

Specific heat of metal = .14 cal  / gm

One serving of peanut butter contains 5.0 g of carbohydrate, 12 g of fat, and 6.0 g of
larisa [96]

The serving of peanut butter contains 117kcal

<h3>Calculation of calories of food Nutrients</h3>

1 gram of both carbohydrate and protein contains 4 (kcal)

1 gram of fat contains 9 (kcal)

But peanut butter contains 5g of fat. The kilocalories of fat present is;

1 g = 9 kcal

5g = F

F = 5×9

F = 45 kcal

The kilocalories of carbohydrates present is;

1g = 4kcal

12g = C

C= 12×4

C = 48kcal

The kilocalories of proteins present is;

1g = 4kcal

6 g = P

P = 4× 6

P = 24 kcal

Therefore, the total kilocalories of the peanut = 45 + 48 + 24 = 117kcal

If 5 grams of hydrogen reacted with 40 games of oxygen to form water, how much of water would be formed?
GREYUIT [131]
2H₂ + O₂ = 2H₂O

n(H₂)=m(H₂)/M(H₂)
n(H₂)=5g/2.0g/mol=2.5 mol

n(O₂)=m(O₂)/M(O₂)
n(O₂)=40g/32.0g/mol=1.25 mol

H₂ : O₂ = 2 : 1

2.5 : 1.25 = 2 : 1

n(H₂O)=n(H₂)=2n(O₂)=2.5 mol

m(H₂O)=n(H₂O)M(H₂O)

m(H₂O)=2.5mol*18.0g/mol=45.0 g

What happens to entropy during this dissolving process.
Paul [167]

Answer:

The process of dissolving increases entropy because the solute particles become separated from one another when a solution is formed.
