A volume of 80.0 mL of H2O is initially at room temperature (22.00 ∘C). A chilled steel rod at 2.00 ∘C is placed in the water. I

f the final temperature of the system is 21.30 ∘C , what is the mass of the steel bar? Use the following values: specific heat of water = 4.18 J/(g⋅∘C) specific heat of steel = 0.452 J/(g⋅∘C)

Answer:

The mass of the steel bar is 26.833 grams

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>data given

ΣQ gained = ΣQ lost

Q=m*C*ΔT

with m = mass in grams

with C= specific heat capacity ( in J/(g°C))

with ΔT = change in temperature = T2-T1

Qsteel = Qwater

msteel * Csteel * (T2steel - T1steel) = mwater * Cwater * (T2water - T1water)

Mass of steel = TO BE  DETERMINED

mass of water =⇒ since 1mL = 1g : 80 mL = 80g

Csteel =0.452 J/(g °C

Cwater = 4.18 J/(g °C

initial temperature steel T1 : 2 °C

final temperature steel T2 = 21.3 °C

initial temperature water T1 =22 °C

final temperature water T2 = 21.3 °C

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate mass of steel

msteel * Csteel * (T2steel - T1steel) = mwater * Cwater * (T2water - T1water)

msteel * 0.452 *(21.3-2) = 80 * 4.18 * (21.3-22)

msteel = (80 * 4.18 * (-0.7)) / (0.452 * 19.3)

msteel = -234.08 / 8.7236

msteel = -26.833 g

Since mass can't be negative we should take the absolute value of it = 26.833g

The mass of the steel bar is 26.833 grams

When the molecules of a gas hit each other do they normally stick or bounce off
Dahasolnce [82]
Since the molecules of a gas are constantly in motion, moving and hitting other gas molecules in all directions of the enclosed container, the molecules transfer a portion of energy through the interaction of other gas particles as they hit, but then bounce off.

Which overall chemical equation is obtained by combining these intermediate equations?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
The common substance among the product(s) of the first equation and among the reactant(s) in the second equation is H2O(g). We can eliminate that as an intermediate. The overall chemical equation will thus be:

CH4(g) + 2O2(g) → CO2(g) + 2H2O(l),

which is the first answer choice.

In essence, all you’re doing here is swapping water vapor for liquid water.
