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>

Determine the heat of reaction (ΔHrxn) for the reaction of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) with HCl to produce CO2 by using heat of fo
andrey2020 [161]

Answer: The heat of reaction (ΔHrxn) for the reaction is -164.9kJ

Explanation:

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

CaCO_3(s)+2HCl(g)\rightarrow CaCl_2(s)+CO_2(g)+H_2O(g)

To calculate the enthalpy of reaction (\Delta H^o).

\Delta H^o=H_f_{product}-H_f_{reactant}

\Delta H^o=[n_{CaCl_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(CaCl_2)}+n_{CO_2}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(CO_2)}+n_{H_2O}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(H_2O)}]-[n_{CaCO_3}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(CaCO_3)+n_{HCl}\times \Delta H_f^0_{(HCl)}]

where,

\Delta H^o_f_{(CaCO_3(s))}=-1206.9kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(HCl(g))}=-92.30kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(CaCl_2(s))}=-877.1kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(g))}=-285.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2(g))}=-393.51kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times -877.1)+(1\times -393.51)+(1\times -285.8)]-[(1\times -1206.9)+(2\times -92.30)]=-164.9kJ

Therefore the heat of reaction (ΔHrxn) for the reaction is -164.9kJ

For the reaction below, Kp = 1.59 at 100°C. If 1.0 g of SrCO3 is placed in an empty 5.00 L reactor and allowed to reach equilibr
Sergio [31]

Answer:

p_{CO_2}^{eq}=1.59atm

Explanation:

Hello, in this case, one could consider the undergoing chemical reaction as:

SrCO_3(s)\rightleftharpoons SrO(s)+CO_2(g)

Thus, since 1.0 g of strontium carbonate is placed, the equilibrium equation takes the following form, excluding the solid-stated species and considering just the carbon dioxide as it is gaseous:

Kp=p_{CO_2}^{eq}=1.59atm

Hence, since at the beginning there is no carbon dioxide, its pressure at equilibrium equals Kp:

Kp=p_{CO_2}^{eq}=1.59atm

Which was clearly defined above.

Best regards.

A 3.78-gram sample of iron metal is reacted with sulfur to produce 5.95 grams of iron sulfide. Determine the empirical formula o
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The answer to your question is FeS₃

Explanation:

Data

mass of Fe = 3.78g

mass of S = 5.95 g

mass of FeS

Chemical Balanced Reaction

                           Fe   +   S     ⇒    FeS

Process

1.- Convert the grams to moles

For Iron

                              55.85g of Fe --------------  1 mol

                               3.78 g of Fe -----------  x

                               x = (3.78 x 1) / 55.85

                               x = 0.0677 moles

For Sulfur

                              32 g of S ------------------- 1 mol

                               5.95 g     ------------------  x

                               x = (5.95 x 1)/32

                               x = 0.185 moles

2.- Divide by the lowest number of moles

Iron = 0.0677 /0.0677 = 1

Sulfur = 0.185 /0.0677 = 2.73 ≈  3

3.- Write the empirical formula

                                 FeS₃

Chemical bonds between atoms in molecules such as H2, CH4, NH3, and
rosijanka [135]

Answer:In ionic compounds, electrons are transferred between atoms of different elements to form ions. But this is not the only way that compounds can be formed. Atoms can also make chemical bonds by sharing electrons equally between each other. Such bonds are called covalent bonds. Covalent bonds are formed between two atoms when both have similar tendencies to attract electrons to themselves (i.e., when both atoms have identical or fairly similar ionization energies and electron affinities). For example, two hydrogen atoms bond covalently to form an H2 molecule; each hydrogen atom in the H2 molecule has two electrons stabilizing it, giving each atom the same number of valence electrons as the noble gas He.

Compounds that contain covalent bonds exhibit different physical properties than ionic compounds. Because the attraction between molecules, which are electrically neutral, is weaker than that between electrically charged ions, covalent compounds generally have much lower melting and boiling points than ionic compounds. In fact, many covalent compounds are liquids or gases at room temperature, and, in their solid states, they are typically much softer than ionic solids. Furthermore, whereas ionic compounds are good conductors of electricity when dissolved in water, most covalent compounds are insoluble in water; since they are electrically neutral, they are poor conductors of electricity in any state.
