Explanation:
The given data is:
The mass% of a solution is 7.
Mass of solution =450g
The mass of salt required can be calculated as shown below:
Substitute the given values in this formula to get the mass of solute that is salt:
Mass of salt =31.5g
Mass of solvent that is water = 450g-31.5g=418.5g
Answer:
Dilution is the process of decreasing the concentration of a solute in a solution, usually simply by mixing with more solvent like adding more water to the solution
Since there is no phase change, we can use the heat equation,
Q = mcΔT
where Q is the amount of energy transferred (J), m is the mass of the substance (kg), c is the specific heat (J kg⁻¹ °C⁻¹) and ΔT is the temperature difference (°C).
Q = 2000 J
m = 100 g = 0.1 kg
c = ?
ΔT = (70 °C - 50 °C) = 20 °C
By applying the formula,
2000 J = 0.1 kg x c x 20 °C
c = 2000 J / (0.1 kg x 20 °C)
c = 1000 J kg⁻¹ °C⁻¹
Hence, the specific heat capacity of the liquid is 1000 J kg⁻¹ °C⁻¹.
