30,000 J of heat are added to 23.0 kg of steel to reach a final temperature of 140

kolbaska11 [484]

The initial temperature is 137.34 °C.

Explanation:

As the specific heat formula says that the heat energy required is directly proportional to the mass and change in temperature of the system.

Q = mcΔT

So, here the mass m is given as 23 kg, the specific heat of steel is given as c = 490 J/kg°C and the initial temperature is required to find with the final temperature being 140 °C. Also the heat energy required is 30,000 J.

ΔT = $\frac{Q}{mc}$

ΔT = $\frac{30000}{23 \times 490} = \frac{30000}{11270} =2.66$

Since the difference in temperature is 2.66, then the initial temperature will be

Final temperature - Initial temperature = Change in temperature

140-Initial temperature = 2.66

Initial temperature = 140-2.66 = 137.34 °C

Thus, the initial temperature is 137.34 °C.

Calculate the number of moles and the mass of the solute in each of the following solutions:

frosja888 [35]

Answer:

For a: The number of moles of KI are $2.7\times 10^{-5}$ and mass is $4.482\times 10^{-3}g$

For b: The number of moles of sulfuric acid are $1.65\times 10^{-5}$ and mass is $1.617\times 10^{-3}g$

For c: The number of moles of potassium chromate are $2.84\times 10^{-2}$ and mass is 5.51 g.

For d: The number of moles of ammonium sulfate are 39.018 moles and mass is 5155.84 grams.

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$ .....(1)

To calculate the number of moles of a substance, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(2)

For a:

Molarity of KI = $8.23\times 10^{-5}M$

Volume of solution = 325 mL = 0.325 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$8.25\times 10^{-5}mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of KI}}{0.325L}\\\\\text{Moles of KI}=2.7\times 10^{-5}mol$

Now, using equation 2, we get:

Moles of KI = $2.7\times 10^{-5}mol$

Molar mass of KI = 166 g/mol

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$2.7\times 10^{-5}mol=\frac{\text{Mass of KI}}{166g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of KI}=4.482\times 10^{-3}g$

Hence, the number of moles of KI are $2.7\times 10^{-5}$ and mass is $4.482\times 10^{-3}g$

For b:

Molarity of sulfuric acid = $22\times 10^{-5}M$

Volume of solution = 75 mL = 0.075 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$22\times 10^{-5}mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of sulfuric acid}}{0.075L}\\\\\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=1.65\times 10^{-5}mol$

Now, using equation 2, we get:

Moles of sulfuric acid = $1.65\times 10^{-5}mol$

Molar mass of sulfuric acid = 98 g/mol

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$1.65\times 10^{-5}mol=\frac{\text{Mass of }H_2SO_4}{98g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of }H_2SO_4=1.617\times 10^{-3}g$

Hence, the number of moles of sulfuric acid are $1.65\times 10^{-5}$ and mass is $1.617\times 10^{-3}g$

For c:

Molarity of potassium chromate = $0.1135M$

Volume of solution = 0.250 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.1135mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of }K_2CrO_4}{0.250L}\\\\\text{Moles of }K_2CrO_4=2.84\times 10^{-2}mol$

Now, using equation 2, we get:

Moles of potassium chromate = $2.84\times 10^{-2}mol$

Molar mass of potassium chromate = 194.2 g/mol

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$2.84\times 10^{-2}mol=\frac{\text{Mass of }K_2CrO_4}{194.2g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of }K_2CrO_4=5.51g$

Hence, the number of moles of potassium chromate are $2.84\times 10^{-2}$ and mass is 5.51 g.

For d:

Molarity of ammonium sulfate = 3.716 M

Volume of solution = 10.5 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$3.716mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of }(NH_4)_2SO_4}{10.5L}\\\\\text{Moles of }(NH_4)_2SO_4=39.018mol$

Now, using equation 2, we get:

Moles of ammonium sulfate = 39.018 mol

Molar mass of ammonium sulfate = 132.14 g/mol

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

$39.018mol=\frac{\text{Mass of }(NH_4)_2SO_4}{132.14g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of }(NH_4)_2SO_4=5155.84g$

Hence, the number of moles of ammonium sulfate are 39.018 moles and mass is 5155.84 grams.

A block of wood has the mass of 180 grams.it is 10 cm long,6 cm wide and 4 cm thick.what is it’s density?

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

0.75 g/cm³

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of wooden block = 180 g

Length of block = 10 cm

Width of block = 6 cm

Height or thickness = 4 cm

Density of block = ?

Solution:

Volume of block = height × length × width

Volume of block = 4 cm × 10 cm× 6 cm

Volume of block = 240 cm³

Density of block:

density = mass/ volume

d = 180 g/ 240 cm³

d = 0.75 g/cm³

CHEM HELP!

sweet [91]

So let's convert this amount of mL to grams:

$\frac{13.6g}{1mL}*1.2mL=16.32g$

Then we need to convert to moles using the molar weight found on the periodic table for mercury (Hg):

$\frac{1mole}{200.59g}*16.32g=8.135*10^{-2}mol$

Then we need to convert moles to atoms using Avogadro's number:

$\frac{6.022*10^{23}atoms}{1mole} *[8.135*10^{-2}mol]=4.90*10^{22}atoms$

So now we know that in 1.2 mL of liquid mercury, there are $4.90*10^{22}atoms$ present.
