Answer:

The mass of silver block = 73.95 g

Explanation:

Given,

For water:

Mass = 100.0 g

Initial temperature = 24.8 °C

Final temperature = 26.2 °C

Specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

For silver:

Mass = x g

Initial temperature = 59.4 °C

Final temperature = 26.2 °C

Specific heat of water = 0.2386 J/g°C

Heat gain by water = Heat lost by silver

Thus,  

m_{water}\times C_{water}\times (T_f-T_i)=-m_{silver}\times C_{silver}\times (T_f-T_i)

Where, negative sign signifies heat loss

Or,  

m_{water}\times C_{water}\times (T_f-T_i)=m_{silver}\times C_{silver}\times (T_i-T_f)

So,  100.0\times 4.184\times (26.2-24.8)=x\times 0.2386\times (59.4-26.2)

x\times \:0.2386\left(59.4-26.2\right)=100\times \:4.184\left(26.2-24.8\right)

x\times \:0.2386\left(59.4-26.2\right)=585.76

x=\frac{585.76}{7.92152}

x=73.95

<u>Hence, the mass of silver block = 73.95 g</u>

50 Points: What is the mass of 6.12 moles of arsenic (As)?
ozzi

The mass of 6.12 moles of arsenic (As) is calculated to be approximately 459g.

HOW TO CALCULATE MASS:

The mass of a substance can be calculated by multiplying the number of moles of a substance by its molar mass. That is;

Mass of Arsenic = no. of moles of As × molar mass of As.

According to this question, 6.12 moles of arsenic was given and its molar mass is 74.92g/mol.

Mass of As = 6.12 mol × 74.92g/mol

Mass of As = 459g

Therefore, the mass of 6.12 moles of arsenic (As) is calculated to be approximately 459g.

A solution contains 35 grams of KNO3 dissolved in 100 grams of water at 40°C. How much more KNO3 would have to be added to make
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

32g

Explanation:

potassium nitrate has solubility of about 67g per 100g of water at 40°C, which means that potassium nitrate solution will contain 67g of dissolved salt for every 100g of water.

since at this temperature, our solution contains  35g of potassium nitrate 100g  of water. The solution will be unsaturated because of the less potassium nitrate.

to make saturated solution,

mass of potassuim nitrate = 67g - 35g

= 32g

which means dissolving another  32g  of potassium nitrate in solution at 40 °C will make saturated solution.
