In two or more complete sentences, explain the difference between heat and temperature.

mina [271]

Answer:

Heat is the total energy of molecular motion in a substance while temperature is a measure of the average energy of molecular motion in a substance. Heat energy depends on the speed of the particles, the number of particles (the size or mass), and the type of particles in an object. Temperature does not depend on the size or type of object. For example, the temperature of a small cup of water might be the same as the temperature of a large tub of water, but the tub of water has more heat because it has more water and thus more total thermal energy. It is heat that will increase or decrease the temperature. If we add heat, the temperature will become higher. If we remove heat the temperature will become lower. Higher temperatures mean that the molecules are moving, vibrating and rotating with more energy. If we take two objects which have the same temperature and bring them into contact, there will be no overall transfer of energy between them because the average energies of the particles in each object are the same. But if the temperature of one object is higher than that of the other object, there will be a transfer of energy from the hotter to the colder object until both objects reach the same temperature.

Temperature is not energy, but a measure of it. Heat is energy.

The acid dissociation constant Ka of boric acid (H3BO3) is 5.8 times 10^-10. Calculate the pH of a 4.4 M solution of boric acid.

madam [21]

Answer: The pH of a 4.4 M solution of boric acid is 4.3

Explanation:

$H_3BO_3\rightarrow H^+H_2BO_3^-$

at t=0 cM 0 0

at eqm $c-c\alpha$ $c\alpha$ $c\alpha$

So dissociation constant will be:

$K_a=\frac{(c\alpha)^{2}}{c-c\alpha}$

Give c= 4.4 M and $\alpha$ = ?

$K_a=5.8\times 10^{-10}$

Putting in the values we get:

$5.8\times 10^{-10}=\frac{(4.4\times \alpha)^2}{(4.4-4.4\times \alpha)}$

$(\alpha)=0.000011$

$[H^+]=c\times \alpha$

$[H^+]=4.4\times 0.000011=4.8\times 10^{-5}M$

Also $pH=-log[H^+]$

$pH=-log[4.8\times 10^{-5}]=4.3$

Thus pH of a 4.4 M $H_3BO_3$ solution is 4.3

An electric range burner weighing 699.0 grams is turned off after reaching a temperature of 482.0°C, and is allowed to cool down

jasenka [17]

Answer:

0.42 J/gºC

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the heat energy used to heat up the water. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (M) of water = 560 g

Initial temperature (T₁) = 22.7 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = 80.3 °C.

Specific heat capacity (C) of water = 4.18 J/gºC

Heat (Q) absorbed =?

Q = MC(T₂ – T₁)

Q = 560 × 4.18 (80.3 – 22.7)

Q = 2340.8 × 57.6

Q = 134830.08 J

Finally, we shall determine the specific heat capacity of the burner. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (M) of burner = 699 g

Initial temperature (T₁) = 482.0°C

Final temperature (T₂) = 22.7 °C

Heat (Q) evolved = – 134830.08 J

Specific heat capacity (C) of the burner =?

Q = MC(T₂ – T₁)

–134830.08 = 699 × C (22.7 – 482.0)

–134830.08 = 699 × C × –459.3

–134830.08 = –321050.7 × C

Divide both side by –321050.7

C = –134830.08 / –321050.7

C = 0.42 J/gºC

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of the burner is 0.42 J/gºC
