Determine the concentration of an HBr solution if a 45.00 mL aliquot of the solution yields 0.5555 g AgBr when added to a soluti
amid [387]
Molecular weight of AgBr = 187.7
moles of Ag = \frac{0.5555}{187.7} = 2.96 x 10^{-3}
moles of Br = moles of Ag = 2.96 x 10⁻³ mol
concentration of HBr (Molarity) = conc. of Br (strong acid) = \frac{2.96 x 10^{-3} }{45 x 10^{-3} } = 0.0658 mol/l

The bomb calorimeter in Exercise 102 is filled with 987g water. The initial temperature of the calorimeter contents is 23.32. A
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

25.907°C

Explanation:

In Exercise 102, heat capacity of bomb calorimeter is 6.660 kJ/°C

The heat of combustion of benzoic acid is equivalent to the total heat energy released to the bomb calorimeter and water in the calorimeter.

Thus:

-q_{combust} = q_{water} + q_{calori}

q_{combust} = heat of combustion of benzoic acid

q_{water} = heat energy released to water

q_{calori} = heat energy released to the calorimeter

Therefore,

-m_{combust}*H_{combust} = [m_{water}*c_{water} + C_{calori}]*(T_{f} - T_{i})

1.056*26.42 = [0.987*4.18 + 6.66](T_{f} - 23.32)

27.8995 = [4.12566+6.660](T_{f} - 23.32)

(T_{f} - 23.32) = 27.8995/10.7857 = 2.587

T_{f} = 23.32 + 2.587 = 25.907°C
