When 16.9 g KOH is dissolved in 90.8 g of water in a coffee-cup calorimeter, the temperature rises from 18.5 °C to 34.27 °C. Wha

t is the enthalpy change per gram (in J/g) of KOH dissolved in the water? Assume that the solution has a specific heat capacity of 4.18 J/g×K. Water has a density of 1.00 g/ml. Be sure to enter the correct sign (+/-). Enter to 1 decimal place.

Answer:

-431.5 J/g

Explanation:

Mass of solution = Mass of solute + mass of solvent

Solute is KOH while solvent is water.

Mass of KOH = 16.9 g

Mass of water = 90.8 g

Mass of solution = 16.9 + 90.8

                          = 107.7 g

Change in temperature (Δt) = 34.27 - 18.5

                                           = 16.2 °C

Heat required to raise the temperature of water is released by dissolving KOH.

Therefore,

Heat released by KOH = m × s× Δt

                                    = 107.7 × 4.18 × 16.2

                                    = 7293 J

Heat released by per g KOH = 7293 J/16.9 g

                                             = 431.5 J/g

As heat is released therefore, enthalpy change would be negative.

Enthalpy change of KOH = -431.5 J/g

Describe at least two advantages and two disadvantages of using wind as a source of energy.
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Wind is a renewable source of energy widely used as a source of energy in order to minimize the pollution that results from some other sources of non renewable energy.

Wind energy has the advantage of;

1)  being a renewable source of energy hence it can be reused and it is not easily depleted.

2)  it does not lead to any form of environmental pollution.

On the other hand, a lot of space is required in order to mount as many windmills as possible in order to generate enough electricity to serve a large area. Thus, the disadvantages of wind energy are;

1) A large expanse of land is required in order to generate a meaningful quantity of energy.

2) The occurrence of wind is inconsistent hence generation of energy is not steady.

How small atom partical are?​
ElenaW [278]

Atoms of particles are so small that they cannot be divided further by any physical means.

<h3>What are atoms?</h3>

According to John Dalton, atoms are the smallest, indivisible particles of elements.

However, it was later found out that chemically, atoms consist of protons, neutrons, and electrons.

Thus, the indivisibility of atoms that John Dalton was referring to must be that of physical division.

In other words, the particles of atoms are so small that dividing them further using physical means is absolutely impossible.

During fusion _____. hydrogen atoms are split apart U-235 atoms are created helium atoms are created uranium atoms are fused tog
musickatia [10]
The correct answer is the second option. During fusion, uranium atoms are fused together. Fusion reaction happens when two or more nuclei combine or collide to form an element with a higher atomic number. In this process, some of the matter of the fusing nuclei is converted to energy.
