Answer: The heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter is 2.84 kJ/g^oC.

Explanation:

\Delta H_{reaction}=-3.91\times 10^3 kJ/mol=-3.91\times 10^6 J/mol(1kJ=1000J)

Given mass of toluene = 1.55 g

Number of moles of Toluene:

=\frac{\text{Given mass of toluene}}{\text{Molecular mass of toluene}}=\frac{1.55}{92.14 g/mol}=0.0168 moles

Energy required by 0.0168 moles of toluene=\Delta H_{reaction}\times 0.0168 moles=-3.91\times 10^6 J/mol\times 0.0168 mol=-0.065688\times 10^6 J

Since heat released on combustion of 0.0168 moles toluene, this heat will get absorbed by the bomb calorimeter ,then (Q) will be:

Q=0.065688\times 10^6 J

\Delta T= 37.92^oC-23.02^oC=14.9^oC

Q=mc\Delta T=0.065688\times 10^6 J=1.55 g\times c \times (14.9^oC)

c=2.84\times 10^3 J/g^oC=2.84 kJ/g^oC

The heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter is 2.84 kJ/g^oC.

Determine the mass of sodium carbonate required to produce 23.4g of sodium chloride when it reacts with excess hydrochloric acid
Leni [432]
The balanced chemical reaction for the described reaction above is,
                          Na2CO3 + 2HCl ---> 2NaCl + H2CO3
From the reaction, 1 mole of Na2CO3 is needed to produce 2 moles of NaCl. In terms of mass, 106 grams of Na2CO3 are needed to produce 116.9 grams of NaCl. From this,
                (23.4 g NaCl) x (106 g Na2CO3 / 116.9 NaCl = 21.22 g Na2CO3
Thus, approximately 21.22 g Na2CO3 is needed for the desired reaction.

Which of the following compounds most likely has the least bond energy?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

I2; I–I bond length = 266 pm

Explanation:

Bond length is inversely related to bond strength. The longer the bond length, the weaker the bond. The shorter the bond length the stronger the bond. A large bond distance implies that there is poor interaction between the atoms involved in the bond. A long bond distance or bond length may even indicate the absence of covalent interaction between the atoms involved.
