One way to experimentally measure the heat capacity of a Styrofoam cup calorimeter would be to melt a known mass of ice in warm

water and measure hte temperature change. Use the data below to determine the experimental heat capacity of the calorimeter. Use the literature heat of fusion for ice in your calculations. Assume the ice added is at 0.00 c.Mass of ice added: 17.69gMass of water in calorimeter: 98.67gT-Initial of water: 28.7T-Final of water after melting ice: 12.9C

Answer:

4.88 Cals per degree celsius

Explanation:

We have taken heat of fusion of ice = 80 cals / g

We have taken speciic heat of water = 1 cal/g per degree celsius

In this experiment ,  let the heat capacity of calorimeter be X.

Heat gained by ice

heat gained in melting + heat gained in getting warmed

= mass x latent heat + mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

= 17.69 x 80 + 17.69 x 1 x ( 12.9 - 0 )

= 1643.4 Cals

Heat lost by water

=  mass x specific heat x fall in temperature

98.67 x 1 x ( 28.77 - 12.9 )

= 1565.89 Cals

Heat lost by calorimeter

heat capacity x fall in temperature

X x ( 28.77 - 12.9 )

Heat gained = heat lost

1643.4 = 1565.89 +15.87X

X = 4.88 Cals per degree celsius

The density of copper decreases as temperature increases (as does the density of most substances). Which change occurs in a samp
azamat

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

As we know that density the amount of mass present in per unit volume.

Mathematically,      Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

So, it means that density is inversely proportional to volume. Hence, when there will be decrease in density of a substance then there will be increase in its volume. That is, expansion of substance will take place.

Also, boiling point of copper is 2,562 degree celsius but we are heating it up to a temperature of 95 degree celsius. This means that copper will remain in liquid state at this temperature.

Thus, we can conclude that a change which occurs in a sample of copper is that copper sample will expand.

Na+CL2=2NACL is the balanced reaction for the formation of table salt. Given 20 grams of Na and 10 grams of Cl2, which reactant
Elina [12.6K]

Excess reactant : Na

NaCl produced : = 16.497 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Reaction(balanced)

2Na + Cl₂⇒ 2NaCl

20 g Na

10 g Cl₂

Required

Excess reactant

NaCl produced

Solution

mol Na(Ar = 23 g/mol) :

= 20 : 23 = 0.87

mol Cl₂(MW=71 g/mol):

= 10 : 71 g/mol = 0.141

mol : coefficient :

Na = 0.87 : 2 = 0.435

Cl₂ = 0.141 : 1 = 0.141

Limiting reactant : Cl₂(smaller ratio)

Excess reactant : Na

Mol NaCl based on mol Cl₂, so mol NaCl :

= 2/1 x mol Cl₂

= 2/1 x 0.141

= 0.282

Mass NaCl :

= 0.282 x 58.5 g/mol

= 16.497 g

A student compares the boiling point of substances having different intermolecular forces. Which dependent variable did the stud
maks197457 [2]

Boiling point

Explanation:

The likely dependent variable the student used in this experiment is boiling point temperature

The amount of heat supplied will determine when a substance will boil or not based on the intermolecular force in them.

  • In an experiment, the dependent variable is treated as the effect produced.
  • It is the variable that relies on the outcome of the experiment.
  • The independent variable is responsible for the changes in the experiment.
  • The cause is the independent variable. It does not rely on the outcome of the experiment.
  • The dependent variable is the boiling point.
  • The independent variable is the amount of heat supplied or temperature changes.

frutty [35]
The correct answer to the question above is heat. Most of the energy from a lower trophic level is converted into heat. When an organism from a higher trophic level consumed an organism from a lower trophic level, it is mostly heat that is being converted to.
