The smallest particle of such an element is an atom, which consists of electrons centered around a nucleus of protons and neutrons.
Answer:
1) 94.0° C, 2) 34.7°C
Explanation:
1)
Q=mcΔt° =mc(t2 - t1)
2350 J = 85.0 g* 0.385 J/(g*°C) *(t2 - 22.2°C)
t2 - 22.2°C = 71.81°C
t2 = 94.0° C
2)
Q=mcΔt° =mc(t2 - t1)
- 2070 J = 75.0 g * 0.903 J/(g*°C) *(t2 -65.3°C)
t2 - 65.3°C = - 30.56°C
t2 = 34.7°C
Since water has a density of about 1g/mL, and we are assuming HCl and NaOH are mostly water, the total mass of the 2 solutions is 100 g.
Due to the conservation of mass, the mass of product must equal the total mass of reactant, therefore the final mass must also be 100 g.
