"46.7 g of water at 80.6 oC is added to a calorimeter that contains 45.33 g of water at 40.6 oC. If the final temperature of the

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer: The specific heat of calorimeter is 30.68 J/g°C

Explanation:

When hot water is added to the calorimeter, the amount of heat released by the hot water will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by cold water and calorimeter.

$Heat_{\text{absorbed}}=Heat_{\text{released}}$

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

$m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[(m_2\times c_2)+c_3](T_{final}-T_2)$ ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

$m_1$ = mass of hot water = 46.7 g

$m_2$ = mass of cold water = 45.33 g

$T_{final}$ = final temperature = 59.4°C

$T_1$ = initial temperature of hot water = 80.6°C

$T_2$ = initial temperature of cold water = 40.6°C

$c_1$ = specific heat of hot water = 4.184 J/g°C

$c_2$ = specific heat of cold water = 4.184 J/g°C

$c_3$ = specific heat of calorimeter = ? J/g°C

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$46.7\times 4.184\times (59.4-80.6)=-[(45.33\times 4.184)+c_3](59.4-40.6)$

$c_3=30.68J/g^oC$

Hence, the specific heat of calorimeter is 30.68 J/g°C

2FeCl3 ---> 2FeCl2 + Cl2

vesna_86 [32]

The correct options are as follows:
1. In the chemical equation given above, Fe3+ IS REDUCED.
A reduction is a process in which an atom of an element gains an electron and therefore become reduced. In this type of reaction, the positive character of the atom is reduced. Looking at the equation given above, you will notice that, the positive character of Iron is reduced form +3 to +2.

2. In the reaction given above, the chlorine atom is OXIDIZED.
An oxidation is a process in which an atom loses an electron, thereby increasing its oxidation number. In this case, the positive character of the atom is increased. Looking at the chlorine atom given above, you will notice that it has a charge of -1 before and now it has change to neutral, which means that, it has given out the electron it gains earlier.

3. This type of redox reaction can not take place. This is because, in chemical reaction, the chlorine atom is always looking for another element that will donate an electron to it in order to become stable. Thus, chlorine atom easily gain electrons but it can not donate an electron to another element.

For the balanced equation shown below, if the reaction of 0.112 grams of

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The answer is 74.5%.

Explanation:

As we know that % yield= $\frac{actual yield}{theoretical yield}$ x 100%.

Therefore,

Step 1 Calculate Theoretical yield:

0.112 $H_{2}$ x $\frac{1 mol H_{2} }{2.016 g of H{2} }$ x $\frac{4 mol H_{2}O }{4 mol H_{2} }$ x $\frac{18.02 g H_{2}O }{1 mol H_{2}O}$ = 1.001 g $H_{2}O$

Now Step 2

% yield = $\frac{actual yield}{theoretical yield}$ x 100% = $\frac{0.745g}{1.001g}$ = 74.5%

(V) A solution of hydrogen chloride is an electrolyte but a solution of

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

When hydrogen reacts with chlorine, hydrogen chloride is formed. Hydrogen chloride is a gas, and has the formula HCl(g).

When hydrogen chloride dissolves in water, hydrochloric acid is formed. This has the same formula, but you can tell the difference because of the state symbol (aq), which stands for ‘aqueous’. The formula is written as HCl(aq).

Hydrogen chloride is made from molecules. The hydrogen atom and the chlorine atom are joined by a covalent bond. When hydrogen chloride forms hydrochloric acid, the molecules split into ions.

HCl(aq) → H+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

The H+ ions make this aqueous solution acidic. The solution also conducts electricity because it contains ions that are free to move.

However, when hydrogen chloride gas dissolves in a solvent called methylbenzene, the molecules do not split up. A solution of HCl in methylbenzene does not contain hydrogen ions, so it is not acidic. The solution also has a low electrical conductivity.
