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.

Harman [31]
Answer is: <span>the volume percentage of ethylene glycol in the solution is 43.1%.
V(solution) = 1 m</span>³.
d(solution) = 1050 kg/m³.
m(solution) = 1050 kg.
d(ethylene glycol) = 1116 kg/m³.
d(water) = 1000 kg/m³.
m(solution) = d(ethylene glycol) · V(ethylene glycol) + d(water) · V(water). 
V(ethylene glycol) = 1m³ - V(water).
1050 kg = 1116 kg/m³ · (1m³ - V(water)) + 1000 kg/m³ · V(water).
1050 kg = 1116 kg - 1116·V(water) + 1000·V(water).
116 kg/m³ ·V(water) = 66kg.
V(water) = 0.569 m³.
V(ethylene glycol) = 1 m³ - 0.569 m³ = 0.431 m³.
percentage = 0.431 m³ ÷ 1 m³ · 100% = 43.1%.

n-Butane (C4H10) is burned with stoichiometric amount of oxygen. Determine the mole fraction of carbon dioxide and water in the
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

See details below

Explanation:

The balanced reaction equation is given below:

2C_{4} H_{10} + 13O_{2} → 8CO_{2} + 10H_{2} O

Mole fraction of CO2 to H20

= 8/10 = \frac{4}{5}

Mole ratio of C4H10 to CO2 is 2:8 = 1:4

1 mole of n-butane - 38.12 g

4 moles - ?

= 152.48g fuel consumed.

How is it possible to have thousands of different proteins when there are only 20 different amino acids?
STatiana [176]
Hi there!

Although there are only 20 amino acids, these amino acids can combine into an innumerable amount of combinations to form different and unique proteins. 

In case that doesn't make sense to you, I'll provide you with an analogy. You could be provided with 20 different LEGO bricks to work with. While there may only be 20 bricks, these bricks can combine into a vast amount of different formations, structures, etc. Amino Acids work in the same way.
