What is decomposision reaction

Chemistry
1 answer:
Virty [35]4 years ago
3 0

Decomposition reactions are a type of chemical reaction that involves breaking down a compound into smaller compounds or individual elements. These reactions often involve an input of energy in the form of heat, light, or electricity to break down the compounds.

By how much will the water temperature increases if 1046 J of heat energy are added. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g • °
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Option A

250 degrees Celcius

Explanation:

If 1046J of heat energy is added to water, the water will experience a rise in temperature, at a rate that is directly proportional to its specific heat capacity.

Mathematically, this can be seen as Q=C\Delta T

Where C = specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g • °C.

Q = heat energy = 1046 J

\Delta T =1046/4.148=250 degrees Celcius

Therefore, the increase in temperature that will be experienced, is for 250 degrees Celcius

Suppose an ice cube weighing 36.0 g at a temperature of 10°C is placed in 360 g water at a temperature of 20°C. Calculate the te
Scilla [17]

Answer:

10.44 °C

Explanation:

When the thermal equilibrium is reached, both of the substances have the same final temperature (T). The liquid water will lose heat, and the ice cube will absorb this heat. The temperature of the ice will increase until it reaches 0°C, at this temperature, it will change of phase for liquid, absorbing heat, but without a change in the temperature. Then the temperature will increase until the equilibrium.

By the energy conservation, the total amount of heat must be equal to 0:

Qice + Qmelting + Qliquid1 + Qliquid2 = 0

Liquid 1 is the ice after melting, and liquid 2 the liquid that was already at the flask. When there's a change of temperature:

Q = n*c*ΔT, where n is the number of moles, c is the heat capacity and ΔT is the temperature change (final - initial). The temperature variation in °C is equal in K, so the temperature may be used in °C.

The melting heat is:

Q = n*Hfus, Hfus = 6007 J/mol

The molar mass of the water is 18 g/mol, so the number of moles of the water and the ice are:

nwater = nliquid1 = 360/18 = 20 moles

nice = 36/18 = 2 moles

Qice + Qmelting + Qliquid1 + Qliquid2 = 0

2*38*(0 - (-10)) + 2*6007 + 2*75*(T - 0) + 20*75*(T - 20) = 0

760 + 12014 + 150T + 1500T - 30000 = 0

1650T = 17226

T = 10.44 °C
