Suppose that 0.48 g of water at 25 ∘ C condenses on the surface of a 55- g block of aluminum that is initially at 25 ∘ C . If th

e heat released during condensation goes only toward heating the metal, what is the final temperature (in degrees Celsius) of the metal block? (The specific heat capacity of aluminum, C s,Al , is 0.903 J/(g⋅ ∘ C) .) Express the temperature in degrees Celsius to two significant figures.

Answer:

49^oC

Explanation:

At 25^oC, the heat of vaporization of water is given by:

\Delta H^o_{vap} = 43988 J/mol\cdot \frac{1 mol}{18.016 g} = 2441.6 J/g

The water here condenses and gives off heat given by the product between its mass and the heat of vaporization:

Q_1 = \Delta H^o_{vap} m_w

The block of aluminum absorbs heat given by the product of its specific heat capacity, mass and the change in temperature:

Q_2 = c_{Al}m_{Al}(t_f - t_i)

According to the law of energy conservation, the heat lost is equal to the heat gained:

Q_1 = Q_2 or:

\Delta H^o_{vap} m_w = c_{Al}m_{Al}(t_f - t_i)

Rearrange for the final temperature:

\Delta H^o_{vap} m_w = c_{Al}m_{Al}t_f - c_{Al}m_{Al}t_i

We obtain:

\Delta H^o_{vap} m_w + c_{Al}m_{Al}t_i = c_{Al}m_{Al}t_f

Then:

t_f = \frac{\Delta H^o_{vap} m_w + c_{Al}m_{Al}t_i}{c_{Al}m_{Al}} = \frac{2441.6 J/g\cdot 0.48 g + 0.903 \frac{J}{g^oC}\cdot 55 g\cdot 25^oC}{0.903 \frac{J}{g^oC}\cdot 55 g} = 49^oC

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

1.The electrode on the right is positive

2. 0.058V

Explanation:

The above cell is a concentration cell.

A concentration cell is an electrolytic cell that is made of two half-cells with the same electrodes, but differs in concentrations of the solutions. A concentration cell functions by diluting the more concentrated solution and concentrating the more dilute solution, creating a voltage as the cell reaches an equilibrium thereby transferring the electrons from the cell with the lower concentration to the cell with the higher concentration.

In the above cell, electrons flow from the left electrode (less concentrated) to the right electrode (more concentrated). Therefore, the right electrode is the positive electrode (cathode).

Part 2: Please, see the attachment below for the calculations.
