A 100.00 ml of volume of 0.500 M HCl was mixed with 100.00 ml of 0.500 M KOH in a constant pressure calorimeter. The initial tem

perature of individual acid and base was 23.0 oC. The final temperature after mixing was 25.5 oC. The specific heat of the solution was 3.97 J g-1 oC-1 Assume the density of the solution is 1.00 g mL-1 a) Calculate the heat of the reaction in kJ. (Be sure to use signs correctly.) b) Calculate the enthalpy of the reaction in kJ/mol. (Be sure to use signs correctly.) DO NOT put units in the answer box or your answer will be counted wrong.

Answer:

The heat of the reaction = -1985 J = -1.985 kJ

The enthalpy of the reaction is -39.7 kJ/ mol

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Volume of HCl = 100 mL the heat of the reaction = 0.1 L

Molarity of HCl solution = 0.500 M

Volume of KOH = 100 mL = 0.1 L

Molarity of KOH solution = 0.500 M

Initial temperature = 23.0 °C

Final temperature = 25.5 °C

Specific heat of the solution = 3.97 J/°C *g

Density of the solution = 1g/ mL

<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate heat

Q = m*c*ΔT

with m = the mass of both solution : 100g + 100 g ( since density = 1g/mL) = 200 g

c = the specific heat = 3.97 J/°C*g

ΔT  = T2 -T1 = 25.5 = 23 = 2.5 °C

Q = 200g *3.97 J/°C*g * 2.5°C = 1985 J  (= -1985 J because it's exothermic)

<u />

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate the number of moles

Number of moles = Molarity * Volume

Number of moles = 0.5 * 0.1 L = 0.05 moles

(Moles of the acid are equal to the moles of water produced.

Moles of solution = 0.05 moles)

<u>Step 4: </u>Calculate the enthalpy of the reaction

ΔH = heat change /Number of moles

    = -1.985 kJ/ 0.05 moles

   =- 39700 J/mol = -39.7 kJ/ mol

The enthalpy of the reaction is -39.7 kJ/ mol

The enthalpy of the reaction is negative, this means the reaction is exothermic ( which means the final temperature is higher than the initial temperature.)

What are 2 interactions between the earth spheres and the carbon cycle?
Fed [463]

Answer:

Explanation:

The spheres interact with each other, and a change in one area can cause a change in another. Humans (biosphere) use farm machinery manufactured from geosphere materials to plow the fields, and the atmosphere brings precipitation (hydrosphere) to water the plants. The biosphere contains all the planet's living things.

The molecule CCI4 contains one double bond and three single bonds. True or False
kifflom [539]

False

Explanation: Carbon is the central atom which has valency of 4 and can form 4 bonds to complete its octet. Each chlorine has valency of 1 and can form only one bond to complete its octet. Thus carbon can bond with four chlorine atoms through sharing of electrons to form four single bonds. Thus it cannot contain a double bond.
