A 13.5g sample of gold is heated, then placed in a calorimeter containing 60g of water. The temperature of water increases from

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

$T_i~=163.1$ ºC

Explanation:

We have to start with the variables of the problem:

Mass of water = 60 g

Mass of gold = 13.5 g

Initial temperature of water= 19 ºC

Final temperature of water= 20 ºC

Initial temperature of gold= Unknow

Final temperature of gold= 20 ºC

Specific heat of gold = 0.13J/gºC

Specific heat of water = 4.186 J/g°C

Now if we remember the heat equation:

$Q_H_2_O=m_H_2_O*Cp_H_2_O*deltaT$

$Q_A_u=m_A_u*Cp_A_u*deltaT$

We can relate these equations if we take into account that all heat of gold is transfer to the water, so:

$m_H_2_O*Cp_H_2_O*deltaT=~-~m_A_u*Cp_A_u*deltaT$

Now we can put the values into the equation:

$60~g*4.186~J/g{\circ}C*(20-19)~{\circ}C=-(13.5~g*0.13~J/g{\circ}C*(20-T_i)~{\circ}C)$

Now we can solve for the initial temperature of gold, so:

$T_i~=(\frac{60~g*4.186~J/g{\circ}C*(20-19)~{\circ}C}{13.5~g*0.13~J/g{\circ}C})+20$

$T_i~=163.1$ ºC

I hope it helps!

Calculate the solubility of hydrogen in water at an atmospheric pressure of 0.380 atm (a typical value at high altitude).

Pani-rosa [81]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the solubility of hydrogen in water at an atmospheric pressure of 0.380 atm (a typical value at high altitude).

Atmospheric Gas Mole Fraction kH mol/(L*atm)

$N_2$ $7.81\times 10^{-1}$ $6.70\times 10^{-4}$

$O_2$ $2.10\times 10^{-1}$ $1.30\times 10^{-3}$

Ar $9.34\times 10^{-3}$ $1.40\times 10^{-3}$

$CO_2$ $3.33\times 10^{-4}$ $3.50\times 10^{-2}$

$CH_4$ $2.00\times 10^{-6}$ $1.40\times 10^{-3}$

$H_2$ $5.00\times 10^{-7}$ $7.80\times 10^{-4}$

Answer: The solubility of hydrogen gas in water at given atmospheric pressure is $1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Explanation:

To calculate the partial pressure of hydrogen gas, we use the equation given by Raoult's law, which is:

$p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=p_T\times \chi_{\text{hydrogen gas}}$

where,

$p_A$ = partial pressure of hydrogen gas = ?

$p_T$ = total pressure = 0.380 atm

$\chi_A$ = mole fraction of hydrogen gas = $5.00\times 10^{-7}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=0.380\times 5.00\times 10^{-7}\\\\p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=1.9\times 10^{-7}atm$

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{H_2}=K_H\times p_{H_2}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = $7.80\times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm$

$p_{H_2}$ = partial pressure of hydrogen gas = $1.9\times 10^{-7}atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$C_{H_2}=7.80\times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm\times 1.9\times 10^{-7}atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Hence, the solubility of hydrogen gas in water at given atmospheric pressure is $1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Does anyone have any idea what this means lol

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

29.42 Litres

Explanation:

The general/ideal gas equation is used to solve this question as follows:

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (L)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (K

According to the information provided in this question;

mass of nitrogen gas (N2) = 25g

Pressure = 0.785 atm

Temperature = 315K

Volume = ?

To calculate the number of moles (n) of N2, we use:

mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of N2 = 14(2) = 28g/mol

mole = 25/28

mole = 0.893mol

Using PV = nRT

V = nRT/P

V = (0.893 × 0.0821 × 315) ÷ 0.785

V = 23.09 ÷ 0.785

V = 29.42 Litres

The concentrations of the products at equilibrium are [pcl3] = 0.180 m and [cl2] = 0.250 m. what is the concentration of the rea

sineoko [7]

We have Kc = 4.2 x 10^-2 (given but missing in the question)
and When the balanced equation for this reaction is:
PCl5(g) ↔ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)
so, according to the Kc formula:
Kc = the concentration of products / the concentration of the reactants
so, to get the concentration of the reactants in equilibrium, the concentration of the products / the concentration of the reactants should equal the Kc value which is given in the question (missing in your question).
So by substitution in Kc formula:
Kc = [PCl3]*[Cl2] / [PCl5]
4.2 x 10^-2 = 0.18 * 0.25 /[PCl5]
∴[PCl5] = 0.18*0.25 / 4.2x10^-2 = 1.07
So the concentration of the reactants in equilibrim = 1.07
