Will Maynez burns a 0.6-g peanut beneath 50 g of water, which increases in temperature from 22°C to 50°C. (The specific heat cap

acity of water is 1.0 cal/g?°C.) a. Assuming that 40% of the heat released by the burn- ing peanut makes its way to the water (40% efficiency), show that the peanut’s food value is 3500 calories (equivalently, 3.5 Calories).

Answer:

40% of  the energy release by the peanut is 3500 calories

Explanation:

One calorie is defined as the amount of energy required to increase the temperature of one gram of water for one degree Celsius (or one Kelvin)

Equation for energy gain by water is

Q = mcΔT

where, m is the mass of the object

c is the specific heat capacity

ΔT is the change in temperature

c =  1.0 cal/g?°C.

m = 50 g

ΔT = 50°C - 22°C

    = 28°C

Q = (50)× (1)× (28)

  = 1400calories

The peanut contain 1400calories of energy .

amount that 40% of energy is released to water ,

so,

Q = 1400 calories / 0.4

= 3500 calories

Therefore, 40% of  the energy release by the peanut is 3500 calories

Is there a way to dissolve more sugar into a solution that it should hold at that temperature? Explain how this is done and what
Darya [45]

The answer is: supersaturated solution.

A supersaturated solution contains more of the dissolved substance than could be dissolved by the solvent under normal circumstances.

A way to dissolve more sugar into a solution is heating a solution.

The more heat is added to a system, the more soluble a substance (in this example sugar) becomes.

The solution will become supersaturated if this solution is suddenly cooled at a rate faster than the rate of precipitation.

When a 10 mL graduated cylinder is filled to the 10 mL mark, the mass of the water was measured to be 10.085 g at 20ºC. If the d
Arte-miy333 [17]
The percentage error is the error of the measured value to the true value. To find he percent error, the equation is as follows:

Percent error = |Measured Value - True Value|/True Value  * 100
The || is needed to get the absolute value of the difference. Substituting the values,

Percent error = |(10.085 g/10 mL) - 0.9975 g/mL|/<span>0.9975 g/mL  * 100

Ronch [10]

Answer:

M=0.0637M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)+2NaI(aq)\rightarrow PbI_2(s)+2NaNO_3(aq)

Thus, for 0.904 g of precipitate, that is lead (II) iodide, we can compute the initial moles of lead (II) ions in lead (II) nitrate:

n_{Pb^{2+}}=0.904gPbI_2*\frac{1molPbI_2}{461gPbI_2}*\frac{1molPb(NO_3)_2}{1molPbI_2}  *\frac{1molPb^{2+}}{1molPb(NO_3)_2} =1.96x10^{-3}molPb^{2+}

Finally, the resulting molarity in 30.8 mL (0.0308 L):

M=\frac{1.96x10^{-3}molPb^{2+}}{0.0308L}\\ \\M=0.0637M

Regards.
