A cubic piece of platinum metal (specific heat capacity = 0.1256 J/°C・g) at 200.0°C is dropped into 1.00 L of deuterium oxide ('

heavy water,' specific heat capacity = 4.211 J/°C・g) at 25.5°C. The final temperature of the platinum and deuterium oxide mixture is 41.9°C. The density of platinum is 21.45 g/cm³ and the density of deuterium oxide is 1.11 g/mL. What is the edge length of the cube of platinum, in centimeters?

Answer:

a=5.65cm

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for this heat transfer process in which the heat lost by the hot platinum is gained by the cold deuterium oxide based on the equation:

Q_{Pt}=-Q_{Deu}

We can represent the heats in terms of mass, heat capacities and temperatures:

m_{Pt}Cp_{Pt}(T_f-T_{Pt})=-m_{Deu}Cp_{Deu}(T_f-T_{Deu})

Thus, we solve for the mass of platinum:

m_{Pt}=\frac{-m_{Deu}Cp_{Deu}(T_f-T_{Deu})}{Cp_{Pt}(T_f-T_{Pt})} \\\\m_{Pt}=\frac{-1.00L*1110g/L*4.211J/(g\°C)*(41.9-25.5)\°C}{0.1256J/(g\°C)*(41.9-200.0)\°C} \\\\m_{Pt}=3860.4g

Next, by using the density of platinum we compute the volume:

V_{Pt}=\frac{3860.4g}{21.45g/cm^3}\\ \\V_{Pt}=180cm^3

Which computed in terms of the edge length is:

V=a^3

Therefore, the edge length turns out:

a=\sqrt[3]{180cm^3}\\ \\a=5.65cm

Best regards.

A certain sample of coal contains 1.60 percent sulfur by mass. when the coal is burned, the sulfur is converted to sulfur dioxid
alina1380 [7]
<span>1.40 x 10^5 kilograms of calcium oxide The reaction looks like SO2 + CaO => CaSO3 First, determine the mass of sulfur in the coal 5.00 x 10^6 * 1.60 x 10^-2 = 8.00 x 10^4 Now lookup the atomic weights of Sulfur, Calcium, and Oxygen. Sulfur = 32.065 Calcium = 40.078 Oxygen = 15.999 Calculate the molar mass of CaO CaO = 40.078 + 15.999 = 56.077 Since 1 atom of sulfur makes 1 atom of sulfur dioxide, we don't need the molar mass of sulfur dioxide. We merely need the number of moles of sulfur we're burning. divide the mass of sulfur by the atomic weight. 8.00 x 10^4 / 32.065 = 2.49 x 10^3 moles Since 1 molecule of sulfur dioxide is reacted with 1 molecule of calcium oxide, just multiply the number of moles needed by the molar mass 2.49 x 10^3 * 56.077 = 1.40 x 10^5 So you need to use 1.40 x 10^5 kilograms of calcium oxide per day to treat the sulfur dioxide generated by burning 5.00 x 10^6 kilograms of coal with 1.60% sulfur.</span>

How many milliliters of 0.500 M NaOH should be added to 10.0 g of tris hydrochloride (FM 121.135) to give a pH of 7.60 in a fina
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

41.64mL of NaOH 0.500M must be added to obtain the desire pH

Explanation:

It is possible to find pH of a buffer by using H-H equation, thus:

pH = pka + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where [HA] is concentration of the weak acid TRIS-HCl and [A⁻] is concentration of its conjugate acid.</em>

Replacing in H-H equation:

7.60 = 8.072 + log [A⁻] / [HA]

0.3373 =  [A⁻] / [HA] <em>(1)</em>

10.0g of TRIS-HCl (Molar mass: 121.135g/mol) are:

10.0g ₓ (1mol / 121.135g) = 0.08255 moles of acid. That means moles of both the acid and conjugate base are:

[A⁻] + [HA] = 0.08255 <em>(2)</em>

Replacing (1) in (2):

0.3373 =  0.08255 - [HA] / [HA]

0.3373[HA] =  0.08255 - [HA]

1.3373[HA] = 0.08255

<em>[HA] = 0.06173 moles</em>

Thus:

[A⁻]  = 0.08255 - 0.06173 = 0.02082 moles [A⁻]

The moles of A⁻ comes from the reaction of the weak acid with NaOH, that is:

HA + NaOH → A⁻ + H₂O + K⁺

Thus, <em>you need to add 0.02082 moles of NaOH to produce 0.02082 moles of A⁻. </em>As NaOH solution is 0.500M:

0.02082 moles NaOH ₓ (1L / 0.500mol) = 0.04164L of NaOH 0.500M =

<h3>41.64mL of NaOH 0.500M must be added to obtain the desire pH</h3>
