Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{933 J}}

Explanation:

There are three heat transfers involved.

heat from combustion of propane + heat gained by water + heat gained by calorimeter = 0

  q₁     +     q₂      +       q₃      = 0

m₁ΔH + m₂C₂ΔT + C_calΔT = 0

Data:

 m₁ =      2.1   g

 m₂ = 280     g

   Ti = 25.00 °C

   T_f = 26.55 °C

Ccal = 92.3 J·°C⁻¹

Calculations:

Let's calculate the heats separately.

1. q₁

q₁ = 2.1 g × ΔH = 2.1ΔH g

2. q₂

ΔT = T_f - Ti = 26.55 °C - 25.00 °C = 1.55 °C

q₂ = 280 g × 4.184 J·°C⁻¹ × 1.55 °C = 1816 J

3. q₃

q₃ = 92.3 J·°C⁻¹ × 1.55 °C = 143.1 J

4. ΔH

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{2.1$\Delta$H g +1816 J +143.1 J} & = & 0\\\text{2.1$\Delta$H g +1959 J} & = & 0\\\text{2.1$\Delta$H g}& = & \text{-1959 J}\\\Delta H & = & \dfrac{\text{-1959 J}}{\text{2.1 g}}\\\\& = & \textbf{-933 J/g}\\\end{array}\\\text{The combustion releases $\large \boxed{\textbf{933 J}}$ per gram of fuel burned.}

Arada [10]

Answer:

The correct option is: "Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) is not found in the vegan diet and is very low in the lacto-vegetarian diet"

Explanation:

Homocysteine is a VERY IMPORTANT type of amino acid, a chemical that the body uses to make proteins. Normally, vitamin B12, vitamin B6, and folic acid break down homocysteine and transform it into other substances that the body needs. There should be very little homocysteine left in the bloodstream. If you have high homocysteine levels in your blood, that could be a sign of a vitamin deficiency of the vitamins listed above, a heart condition, or a rare inherited disorder.

The chemical formula of ordinary sugar is C12H22O11. Calculate the mass of 7.35 mol of sugar.
ch4aika [34]

First, you need to find the mass of 1 mol of sugar. Mass, or molar mass, can simply be found by adding the masses of the individual elements. These are given to you on the periodic table.

C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}

12 x 12.011 grams (molar mass of Carbon) = 144.132 g

22 x 1.008 grams (molar mass of Hydrogen) = 22.176 g

11 x 15.999 grams (molar mass of Oxygen) = 175.989 g

Add all of the pieces together.

144.132 g + 22.176 g + 175.989 g = 342.297 grams

So, if one mole has 342.297 grams, then 7.35 of that amount will be your answer.

342.297 g/mol x 7.35 mol =  2,515.88 grams

Dilute 0.407M & 2.56L solution to 7.005L. CF?
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

C₂ = 0.149 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial concentration = 0.407 M

Initial volume = 2.56 L

Final volume = 7.005 L

Final concentration = ?

Solution:

Formula:

C₁V₁ = C₂V₂

C₁ = Initial concentration

V₁ = Initial volume

C₂ = Final concentration

V₂ =Final volume

Now we will put the values.

0.407 M × 2.56 L =  C₂ × 7.005 L

1.042 =  C₂ × 7.005 L

C₂ = 1.042 M.L / 7.005 L

C₂ = 0.149 M
