Calculate the mass percent composition of sulfur in Al2(SO4)3.
Anastaziya [24]
The molar mass of aluminum sulftae is 342.14 g/mol.

Since the subscript shows that there are 3 sulfurs within the substance, the total mass of sulfur is 96.21g/mol

Now take the mass of the sulfur and divide it by the molar mass of aluminum sulfate, then multiply by 100:
(96.21/342.15)(100) = 28.1% mass composition of sulfate

Explanation:

It is known that the specific heat capacity of Liver (C_{p}) is 3.59 kJ kg^{-1}.K^{-1}

It is given that :

Initial temperature of Liver = Body temperature = 37^{o}C = 310 K

Final temperature of Liver = 180 K

Relation between heat energy, mass, and change in temperature is as follows.

                        Q = m \times C_{p} \times \Delta T

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

                    Q = m \times C_{p} \times \Delta T

                    Q = 1.5 kg \times 3.59 kJ/kg.K \times (310 - 180) K

                         =  700.05 kJ

Therefore, we can conclude that amount of heat which must be removed from the liver is 700.05 kJ.
