Answer:

m H2O = 56 g

Explanation:

  • Q = mCΔT

∴ The heat ceded (-) by the Aluminum part is equal to the heat received (+) by the water:

⇒ - (mCΔT)Al = (mCΔT)H2O

∴ m Al = 25.0 g

∴ Mw Al = 26.981 g/mol

⇒ n Al = (25.0g)×(mol/26.981gAl) = 0.927 mol Al

⇒ Q Al = - (0.927 mol)(24.03 J/mol°C)(26.8 - 86.4)°C

⇒ Q Al = 1327.64 J

∴ mH2O = Q Al / ( C×ΔT) = 1327.64 J / (4.18 J/g.°C)(26.8 - 21.1)°C

⇒ mH2O = 55.722 g ≅ 56 g

How many molecules of H₂S are required to form 79.0 g of sulfur according to the following reaction? Assume excess SO2.
Serhud [2]

Answer:

9.89 x 10²³ molecules H₂S

Explanation:

To find the molecules of H₂S, you need to (1) convert grams S to moles S (via the atomic mass of sulfur), then (2) convert moles S to moles H₂S (via the mole-to-mole ratio from equation coefficients), and then (3) convert moles H₂S to molecules H₂S (via Avogadro's Number). It is important to arrange the ratios/conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given value.

Atomic Mass (S): 32.065 g/mol

2 H₂S(s) + SO₂(g) -----> 3 S(s) + 2 H₂O(l)

Avogadro's Number:

6.022 x 10²³ molecules = 1 mole

79.0 g S           1 mole            2 moles H₂S          6.022 x 10²³ molecules
---------------  x  ---------------  x  ----------------------  x  -------------------------------------  =
                        32.065 g            3 moles S                          1 mole

=  9.89 x 10²³ molecules H₂S

Why is snow a better insulator than ice?
Anika [276]

Answer:

Snow is a better insulator than ice because snow contains air packets inside it and air is a good insulator of heat. Due to this, snow takes longer time to melt than the ice of the same mass.
