A 0.500-g sample of KCl is added to 50.0g of water in a calprimeter (Figure 5.12) If the temperature decreases by 1.05C. what is

the approximate amount of heat involved in the dissolution of the KCl , assuming the heat capacity of the resulting solution is 4.18 J/gC? Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic?

Answer : The reaction is endothermic.

Explanation :

Formula used :

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

where,

\Delta T = change in temperature = 1.05^oC

Q = heat involved in the dissolution of KCl = ?

m = mass = 0.500 + 50.0 = 50.5 g

c = specific heat of resulting solution = 4.18J/g^oC

Now put all the given value in the above formula, we get:

Q=50.5g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times 1.05^oC

Q=+221.64J

The heat involved in the dissolution of KCl is positive that means as the change in temperature decreases then the reaction is endothermic and as the change in temperature increases then the reaction is exothermic.

Hence, the reaction is endothermic.

127) Thirty-six colonies grew in nutrient agar from 1.0 ml of undiluted sample in a standard plate count. How many cells were in
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

36

Explanation:

Since the sample was undiluted the number of colonies is the number that grew on the nutrient agar which is 36 colonies. If it was diluted for example let say 0.1 ml from a dilution in which 1 ml of the sample was added to 9 ml of water, and it grew  colonies then  0.1 ml  yielded  6 colonies, 1 ml of the diluted sample will yield 60 colonies and 10 ml will have 600 colonies and therefore the 1 ml undiluted sample will have 600 colonies.

For the following reaction, the equilibrium constant Kc is 0.80 at a certain temperature. If the concentration of NO(g) and NOBr
velikii [3]

Answer:

[Br₂] =  1.25M

Explanation:

        2NO (g)  +  Br₂ (g)   ⇄   2NOBr (g)

Eq    0.80M            ?                0.80M

That's the situation told, in the statement.

Let's make the expression for Kc

Kc = [NOBr]² / [Br₂] . [NO]²

Kc = 0.80² / [Br₂] . [0.80]²

0.80 = 1 / [Br₂]

[Br₂] = 1 / 0.80 → 1.25

Artemon [7]

Answer:

because of conduction. The areas to the sides of the light bulb are warmest because of convection. The area directly above the light bulb is warmest because of conduction. The area directly above the light bulb is warmest because of convection

Hydrogen + copper(II) oxide= copper + steam, which substance is oxidized. explain your answers
Vsevolod [243]
Hydrogen is oxidized. The H2 reactant has an oxidation number of 0 because it’s in its elemental form. In the H2O product, H has an oxidation number of +1. The increase in oxidation number is oxidation.
