Ethanol (c2h5oh) melts at -114°c. the enthalpy of fusion is 5.02 kj/mol. the specific heats of solid and liquid ethanol are 0.9

7 j/g-k and 2.3 j/g-k, respectively. how much heat (kj) is needed to convert 25.0 g of solid ethanol at -135°c to liquid ethanol at -50°c?

You'll want to add three amounts of heat. 

(1) Specific heat of lowering the temperature from -135°C to the melting point -114°C
(2) Latent heat of fusion/melting
(3) Specific heat of elevating the temperature from -114°C to -50°C

(1) E = mCΔT = (25 g)(0.97 J/g·°C)(1 kJ/1000 J)(-114 - -135) = 0.509 kJ
(2) E = mΔH = (25 g)(5.02 kJ/mol)(1 mol/46.07 g ethanol) = 2.724 kJ
(3) E = mCΔT = (25 g)(2.3 J/g·°C)(1 kJ/1000 J)(-50 - -114) = 3.68 kJ

<em>Summing up all energies, the answer is 6.913 kJ.</em>

Would you expect a butane lighter to work in winter when the temperature outdoors is 25 ∘F?
kogti [31]
No, I would not expect the lighter to work at 25 °F.

25 °F ≈ -4 °C

The boiling point of butane is -1 °C.

At -4 °C, the vapour pressure of butane is not great enough to push back against atmospheric pressure.

The lighter won't work.

Why is there a large increase between the first and second ionization energies of the alkali metals
aivan3 [116]

Explanation:

Alkali metals forms the group 1 of the modern periodic table. They include Lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium.

The general electronic configuration of the alkali metals -ns^1. They have 1 valence electron.

Ionization energy is the minimum amount of energy which is required to knock out the loosely bound valence electron from the isolated gaseous atom.

<u>Thus, removal of the valence electron leads to the alkali metals having noble gas electronic configuration and which is stable. Thus, the removal of the second electron is very tough and thus, there a large increase between the first and second ionization energies of the alkali metals.</u>

A 50.0ml- volume of 0.15M HBr is titrated with 0.25M KOH . Calculate the pH after the addition of 13.0ml of KOH.
kirill115 [55]
A 50.0ml- volume of 0.15M HBr is titrated with 0.25M KOH . Calculate the pH after the addition of 13.0ml of KOH.

Answer: you simple have to do the following:

moles HBr = 0.0500 L x 0.15 M=0.0075

moles KOH = 0.0200 L x 0.25 M=0.0050

moles H+ in excess = 0.0075 - 0.0050= 0.0025

total volume = 0.070 L

[H+]= 0.0025/0.070=0.0357 M

pH =1.45

I hope it helps, Regards.
