The difference between an element and a compound is that an element is composed of only one kind of atom while a compound is composed of at least 2 kinds of atoms. The properties of an element and the compound the atoms has to form are different physically and chemically.Example of element are O and H, while compound examples are H2O and H2O2.

If 4.168 kJ of heat is added to a calorimeter containing 75.40 g of water, the temperature of the water and the calorimeter incr
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The value of  the heat capacity of the Calorimeter  C_c = 54.4 \frac{J}{c}

Explanation:

Given data

Heat added Q = 4.168 KJ = 4168 J

Mass of water m_w = 75.40 gm

Temperature change = ΔT = 35.82 - 24.58 = 11.24 ° c

From the given condition

Q = m_w C_w ΔT + C_c ΔT

Put all the values in above equation we get

4168 = 75.70 × 4.18 × 11.24 +  C_c × 11.24

611.37 =  C_c × 11.24

C_c = 54.4 \frac{J}{c}

This is the value of  the heat capacity of the Calorimeter.

Galina-37 [17]
The correct answer to this question is Water will move from left to right.

Water tends to move over to the side where there is less water. For example, if there's less water on the RIGHT side, then the water will tend to move from left, to RIGHT. It <span>shows more solute molecules on the right, so water will move to this side by osmosis. I think it is to do with entropy and the tendency for systems to move to equilibrium if there is an increase in entropy</span>
