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.}

A hydrate is a compound that has water molecules within its crystal structure. Magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, MgSO4·7H2O, is a
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

We are heating the sample repeatedly to become a pure compound of only MgSO4 (withot H2O) and a constant mass.

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of MgSO4·7H2O = 5.06 grams

The remaining MgSO4 had a constant mass of 2.47 grams.

Step 2: Explain why the sample in the crucible was heated repeatedly until the sample had a constant mass.

Before heating the compound has magnesium sulfate and water.

The total mass of this compound is 5.06 grams

By heating we try to eliminate the water.

After heating there remain mgSO4 with a mass of 2.47 grams

This means 5.06 - 2.47 = 2.59 grams is water. All of this is eliminated.

The heating process happens repeatedly to make sure the final compound is pure. So the 2.47 grams os only MgSO4. If the mass would not be constant. It means the compound is not pure, the not all the water is eliminated yet.

So we are heating the sample repeatedly to become a pure compound of only MgSO4 (withot H2O) and a constant mass.

How do two sublevels of the same principal energy level differ from each other?
dem82 [27]

Two sublevels of the same principal energy level differ from each other through shape and size.

There are mainly 4 energy level s, p, d and f.

The s level has one orbital and one orbital have two electrons. So the maximum number of electron in s sublevel is 2.

The p level has three orbital and one orbital have two electrons. So the maximum number of electron in s sublevel is 6.

The d level has five orbital and one orbital have two electrons. So the maximum number of electron in s sublevel is 10.

The f level has 7 orbital and one orbital have two electrons. So the maximum number of electron in s sublevel is 14.

They may be differ in magnetic level.

Thus, we concluded that Two sublevels of the same principal energy level differ from each other through shape and size.

A chemist prepares a solution of sodium thiosulfate (Na2S203) by measuring out 110.g of sodium thiosulfate into a 350. mL volume
forsale [732]

Answer:

1.99 M

Explanation:

The molar mass of sodium thiosulfate (solute) is 158.11 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 110 grams are:

110 g × (1 mol/158.11 g) = 0.696 mol

The volume of solution is 350 mL = 0.350 L.

The molarity of sodium thiosulfate is:

M = moles of solute / liters of solution

M = 0.696 mol / 0.350 L

M = 1.99 M
