2.5 piece of lithium is dropped into a 500 g sample of water at 22.1 C.ten temperature of the water increases to 23.5 C. How muc

Dominik [7]

Answer:

2.6 kJ

Explanation:

The formula for the amount of heat (q) absorbed by the water is

q = mCΔT

1. Calculate ΔT

ΔT = 23.5 °C - 22.1 °C = 1.4 °C

2. Calculate q

q₂ = mCΔT = 500 g × 4.184 J·°C⁻¹g⁻¹ × 1.4 °C = 2900 J = 2.9 kJ

A hydrated salt is a solid that includes water molecules within its crystal structure. A student heated a 12.10-gram sample of a

sveticcg [70]

Answer : The percent by mass of water the salt contain is, 55.3 %

Explanation : Given,

Mass of hydrated salt = 12.10 g

Mass of salt = 5.41 g

First we have to calculate the mass of water.

Mass of water = Mass of hydrate salt - Mass of salt

Mass of water = 12.10 g - 5.41 g
