A piece of iron (C=0.449 J/g°C) and a piece of gold (C=0.128 J/g°C) have identical masses. If the iron has an initial temperatur

e of 498 K and the gold has an initial temperature of 298 K, which of the following statements is TRUE of the outcome when the two metals are placed in contact with one another? Assume no heat is lost to the surroundings.
a. Since the two metals have the same mass, the final temperature of the two metals will be 398 K, exactly half way in between the two initial temperatures. b. Since the two metals have the same mass, but the specific heat capacity of iron is much greater than that of gold, the final temperature of the two metals will be closer to 498 K than to 298 K. c. Since the two metals have the same mass, the thermal energy contained in the iron and gold after reaching thermal equilibrium will be the same. d. Since the two metals have the same mass, but the specific heat capacity of gold is much smaller than that of iron, the final temperature of the two metals will be closer to 298 K than to 498 K. e. None of the above are true.

Answer:

The correct answer is B. Since the two metals have the same mass, but the specific heat capacity of iron is much greater than that of gold, the final temperature of the two metals will be closer to 498 K than to 298 K

Explanation:

Iron is hotter and gold is colder, therefore, according to laws of thermodynamics, iron will lose heat to gold until they are at the same temperature.

The specific heat capacity of iron(0.449) is over three times that of gold(0.128). Since masses are equal, this means that each time iron's temperature drops by one degree, the energy released it releases makes gold's temperature increase by more than 3 degrees. So gold's temperature will be climbing much faster than iron's is falling. Meaning they will meet closer to the initial temperature of iron than that of gold

Reika [66]
I believe the correct answer is the first option. To increase the molar concentration of the product N2O4, you should increase the pressure of the system. You cannot determine the effect of changing the temperature since we cannot tell whether it is an endothermic or an exothermic reaction. Also, decreasing the number of NO2 would not increase the product rather it would shift the equilibrium to the left forming more reactants. The only parameter we can change would be the pressure. And, since NO2 takes up more space than the product increasing the pressure would allow the reactant to collide more forming the product.

The vapor pressure of water at 25.0°c is 23.8 torr. determine the mass of glucose (molar mass = 180 g/mol) needed to add to 500.
svp [43]
Q: A
according to this formula, we can get the mole fraction of water (n):
P(solu) = n Pv(water)
when we have Pv(solu) = 22.8 and Pv(water) = 23.8 so by substitution:
22.8 = n * 23.8
n= 0.958
- we need to get the moles of glucose:
moles of water = 500 g(mass weight) / 18 (molar weight)= 27.7 mol
n = moles of water / ( moles of water + moles of glucose)
0.958   = 27.7 / ( 27.7+ moles of glucose)
0.958 moles of glucose + 26.5 = 27.7
0.968 moles of glucose = 1.2
moles of glucose = 1.253 mol
∴ the mass of glucose = no.of glucose moles x molar mass 
                                      = 1.253 x 180 = 225.5 g
Q: B
here we also need to get n (mole fraction of water )by using this formula:
Pv(solu) = n Pv(water)
when we have Pv(solu)=132 & Pv(water)=150 so, by substition:
132= n * 150
n = 0.88
so, mole fraction of solution = 1 - 0.88 = 0.12
and we can get after that the moles of water = (mass weight / molar mass)
- no.moles of water = 85 g / 18 g/mol = 4.7 moles
- total moles in solution = moles of water / moles fraction of water 
                                        = 4.7 / 0.88 = 5.34 moles 
∴ moles of the solution = total moles in solu - moles of water 
                                       = 5.34 - 4.7 = 0.64 moles solute
∴ the molar mass of the solute = mass weight of solute / no.of moles of solute
                                                    = 53.8 / 0.64 = 84 g/mole

Q: C

moles of urea (NH2)2 CO = mass weight / molar mass
                                           = 4.49 g / 60 g /mol
                                           = 0.07 mol
moles of methanol = mass weight / molar mass 
                                 = 39.9  g / 32  g/mol = 1.25 mol
moles fraction of methanol = moles of methanol / (moles of methanol + moles of urea )
moles fraction of methanol = 1.25 / ( 1.25+0.07) = 0.95
by substitution in Pv formula we will be able to get the vapour pressure of the solu :
Pv(solu) = n P°v
Pv(solu) = 0.95 * 89 mm Hg 
∴Pv(solu) = 84.55 mmHg

How many atoms are in 163 g of calcium?
I am Lyosha [343]
<span>Avogadro's number represents the number of units in one mole of any substance. This has the value of 6.022 x 10^23 units / mole. This number can be used to convert the number of atoms or molecules into number of moles.

163 g Ca (1 mol / 40.08 g) ( </span>6.022 x 10^23 atoms / 1 mol ) = 2.45 x10^24 atoms Ca
