Full Question:

Although it is not really a chemical reaction, one could consider a cooling process to be analogous to the enthalpy change that occurs in a reaction. Consider the transformation

Fe (s, T = 300 K) → Fe (s, T = 250 K)

If the specific heat of iron is 0.449 J/g·K, what is the enthalpy change of this process for 100 g of Fe (s)? Is the process endothermic or exothermic? Explain.

Answer:

ΔH = - 2245J

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity, Cp = 0.449 J/g·K

ΔH=MCpΔT

ΔT = 250K - 300K = - 50K

ΔH = 100 * 0.449 * (-50)

ΔH = - 2245J

The iron will lose (give off) heat energy to cool down. Hence, it is an exothermic process. The negative sign of the enthalpy confirms this.

What is the concentration of a 0.750 l solution that contains 52.0 g of glucose (c6h12o6)?
vodka [1.7K]
Concentration of Solutions is oftenly expressed in Molarity. Molarity is the number of moles of solute dissolved per volume of solution.

                             Molarity  =  Moles / Volume
As,
      Moles  =  Mass / M.mass
So,
                             Molarity  =  Mass / M.mass × Volume   ---- (1)

Data Given;
                   Volume  =  0.750 L

                   Mass  =  52 g

                   M.mass  =  180 g/mol

Putting Values in eq.1,

                     Molarity  =  52 g ÷ (180 g.mol⁻¹ × 0.750 L)

                     Molarity  =  0.385 mol.L⁻¹
