Answer : The initial temperature of water (in ^{0}celcius) = 77.108^{0}C  

Solution : Given,

Mass of gold = 15.23 g

Mass of water = 28 g

Initial temperature of gold = 53^{0}C  

Final temperature of gold = 62^{0}C

Final temperature of water = 62^{0}C

Heat capacity of gold = 12.9J/g^{0}C

Heat capacity of water = 4.18J/g^{0}C

The formula used for calorimetry is,

q = m × c × ΔT

where,

q = heat required

m = mass of an element

c = heat capacity

ΔT = change in temperature

In the calorimetry, the energy as heat lost by the system is equal to the gained by the surroundings.

Now the above formula converted and we get

q_{system}= - q_{surrounding}

m_{system}\times c_{system}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})_{system}= -[m_{surrounding}\times c_{surrounding}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})_{surrounding}]

m_{gold}\times c_{gold}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})_{gold}= -[m_{water}\times c_{water}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})_{water}]

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

15.23g\times 12.9J/g^{0}C \times (62^{0}C-53^{0}C )= -[28g\times 4.18J/g^{0}C \times (62^{0}C-T_{\text{ initial of water}})]

By rearranging the terms, we get

T_{\text{ initial water}=77.108^{0}C

Thus the initial temperature of water = 77.108^{0}C

What volume measured in stp will 3.75 grams of helium gas occupy?
Andre45 [30]
Molar mass  helium gas :

He = 4.0 g/mol

number of moles:  3.75 / 4.0 => 0.9375 moles

1 mole ------ 22.4 ( at STP)
0.9375 ------ ?

volume = 0.9375 x 22.4 / 1

Volume = 21 / 1

Volume = 21 L

hope this helps!

A student adds 0. 0030 mol of hcl to 100 ml of a 0. 10 m solution of a r2nh, a weak base. The ph of the solution is found to be
egoroff_w [7]

Since an acidic salt solution is produced when a strong acid neutralizes a weak base, the pH of the salt solution formed when HCl is added to R2NH will be less than 7.

<h3>What is a neutralization reaction?</h3>

A neutralization reaction is the react ion between an acid and a base to form salt and water only.

Neutralization reactions can either produce a neutral solution, an acidic solution or an alkaline solution at equivalence point.

When a strong acid is added to a weak base, the pH of the salt solution formed will be less than 7.

Therefore, the pH of the salt solution formed when HCl is added to R2NH will be less than 7.

A patient receives 3.3 L of glucose solution intravenously (IV). If 100. mL of the solution
artcher [175]

Answer:

660kcal

Explanation:

The question is missing the concentration of the glucose solution. Standard glucose concentration for IV solution is 5% or 5g of glucose every 100mL of solution.  

We need to determine how many grams of glucose are there inside the solution. The number of glucose in 3.3L solution will be:  

3.3L * (1000mL / L) * (5g/100mL)= 165 g.

If glucose will give 4kcal/ g, then the total calories 165g glucose give will be: 165g * 4kcal/ g= 660kcal.
