The energy from 0.015 moles of octane was used to heat 250 grams of water. The temperature of the water rose from 293.0 K to 371

.2 K. What is the enthalpy of combustion of octane? The specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/K g.

Answer:

5447.93 KJ

Explanation:

Given:

The number of moles of octane , n = 0.015

Mass of the water heated, m = 250 grams

Temperature change of the water, ΔT = 371.2 K - 293.0 K = 78.2 K

The specific heat capacity of the water, C = 4.18 J/k g

Now,

the heat acquired by the water, Q

Q = mCΔT

on substituting the values, we get

Q = 250 × 4.18 × 78.2

or

Q = 81.719 KJ

Now, the heat of combustion = Q / n = 81.719 / 0.015  = 5447.93 KJ

Chromium metal is plated onto a car bumper at a current of 10.0 amperes for 100 seconds. The plating bath contains chromium in t
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

0.54g of Cr

Explanation:

Current (I) = 10A

Time (t) = 100s

Molecular mass of Cr = 51.996 amu

Faraday's first law of electrolysis states that

The mass of the substance (m) of a given substance deposited at an electrode is directly proportional to the quantity of electricity or charge (Q) passed

m = nQ

M = mass of the substance

n = electrochemical constant

Q = charge passed through it

Q = IT

Q = (10 * 100) = 1000C

1 moles = molarmass = Faraday's constant (96500C)

Molar mass = Faraday's constant (96500C)

51.996 g = 96500C

How many grams will be liberated with 1000C

51.996g = 96500C

Xg = 1000C

X = (1000 * 51.996) / 96500

X = 51996 / 96500

X = 0.5388g = 0.54 g of Cr will be deposited
