A hydrocarbon sample was burned in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter and the 1.00 kg of water rose from 20.

45°C to 23.65°C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter, excluding the water, is 2.21 kJ/°C. Using this information, determine the heat released by the combustion.

Answer:

The heat released by the combustion is 20,47 kJ

Explanation:

Bomb calorimeter is an instrument used to measure the heat of a reaction. The formula is:

Q = C×m×ΔT + Cc×ΔT

Where:

Q is the heat released

C is specific heat of water (4,186kJ/kg°C)

m is mass of water (1,00kg)

ΔT is temperature change (23,65°C - 20,45°C)

And Cc is heat capacity of the calorimeter (2,21kJ/°C)

Replacing these values the heat released by the combustion is:

<em>Q = 20,47 kJ</em>

Choose the statement below that is TRUE. A weak acid solution consists of mostly insoluble acid molecules. The term 'strong elec
lora16 [44]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A weak acid is defined as a substance which dissociates partially into a solvent. This also means that most of the molecules of a weak acid solution remain insoluble in nature.

A solution in which solute particles completely dissociate into ions in a solvent is known as a strong electrolyte.

Whereas a solution in which solute particles partially dissociate into ions is known as a weak electrolyte.

A molecular compound is a covalent compound and as like dissolves like. So, molecular compounds are not soluble in polar solvent like water.

Therefore, we can conclude that the true statement is weak acid solution consists of mostly insoluble acid molecules.

Hi :) , if the density of an object is the same as water , will the object float or sink?
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

it will float if the object is 1g/cm^3(water 's density ) because it is less dense
