Answer:

1.8 × 10² cal

Explanation:

When 0.32 g of a walnut is burned, the heat released is absorbed by water and used to raise its temperature. We can calculate this heat (Q) using the following expression.

Q = c × m × ΔT

where,

c: specific heat capacity of water

m: mass of water

ΔT: change in the temperature

Considering the density of water is 1 g/mL, 58.1 mL = 58.1 g.

Q = c × m × ΔT

Q = (1 cal/g.°C) × 58.1 g × 3.1°C

Q = 1.8 × 10² cal

iogann1982 [59]
Specific heat capacity of any substance comes with the unit : J/(g*degree C)
for molar capacity , change gram -> moles  unit ( J / moles * degree C)

4.18 J  / mol - degree C

H = 1.01 g * 2 =   2.02 g
O = 16 g

2.02 + 16  =  18.02  g

Now  :-    4.18  J / mol- degree C) *  18.02 /  1 mole H2O
molar heat  =  75.3 J / mol - degree C

What is the pH of a 0.0042 M hydrochloric acid solution?
babymother [125]

Answer:

E) 2.38

Explanation:

The pH of any solution , helps to determine the acidic strength of the solution ,

i.e. ,

  • Lower the value of pH , higher is its acidic strength

and ,

  • Higher the value of pH , lower is its acidic strength .

pH is given as the negative log of the concentration of H⁺ ions ,

hence ,

pH = - log H⁺

From the question ,

the concentration of the solution is 0.0042 M , and being it a strong acid , dissociates completely to its respective ions ,

Therefore , the concentration of H⁺ = 0.0042 M .

Hence , using the above equation , the value of pH can be calculated as follows -

pH = - log H⁺

pH = - log ( 0.0042 M )

pH =  2.38 .

Is there a difference between a homogeneous mixture of hydrogen and oxygen in a 2:1 ratio and a sample of water vapor?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

There is a difference between the homogeneous mixture of the hydrogen and the oxygen in a 2:1 ratio and the sample of the water vapor.

In the homogeneous mixture of the hydrogen and the oxygen which are present in the ratio, 2:1 , the elements are not chemically combined. They are explosive also as both shows their specific properties. They can be separated by physical means (Condensation, diffusion).

On the other hand, in water vapor, the two elements are chemically bonded in a specific mixture which cannot be separated via physical means. Water has its unique properties and they can be separated by chemical means only.
