Answer:
3000 kJ/kg
Explanation:
The calorific value of a substance is the amount of heat produced per unit mass by the combustion of the substance.
It is given by:
where
Q is the amount of heat released
m is the mass of the fuel
In this problem, we have:
m = 60 kg is the mass of fuel
is the amount of heat released
Therefore, the calorific value of the fuel is:
Answer:
92.04%
Explanation:
Given:
Mass of CO₂ obtained = 53.0 grams
Mass of calcium carbonate heated = 1.31 grams
Now,
the molar mass of the calcium carbonate = 100.08 grams
The number of moles heated in the problem = Mass / Molar mass
= (1.31 grams) / (100.08 grams/moles)
= 0.013088 moles
now,
1 mol of calcium carbonate yields 1 mol of CO₂
thus,
0.013088 moles of calcium carbonate will yield = 0.013088 mol of CO₂
now,
Theoretical mass of 0.013088 moles of CO₂ will be
= Number of moles × Molar mass of CO₂
= 0.013088 × 44 = 0.5758 grams
Thus, the percent yield for this reaction =
or
the percent yield for this reaction =
or
the percent yield for this reaction = 92.04%
