Answer:

74.3kJ are transeferred

Explanation:

In the bomb calorimeter, the burning of C₈H₁₈ is producing heat that is been absorbed for the calorimeter and the water.

<em>Heat absorbed calorimeter:</em>

837J/°C * (33.8°C-15.0°C) = 15735.6J

<em>Heat absorbed water:</em>

C*m*ΔT

<em>C specific heat of water (4.184J/g°C), m is mass of water (745g), and ΔT change in temperature (33.8°C - 15°C = 18.8°C)</em>

4.184J/g°C*745g*18.8°C = 58601.1J

Heat released by the reaction:

15735.6J + 58601.1J = 74336.7J

<h3>74.3kJ are transeferred</h3>

11 Which compound has the greatest percent composition by mass of sulfur?(1) BaS (3) MgS
harina [27]
Percent composition by mass is calculated (mass of element within compound)/(mass of compound)*100. The lower the total molar mass of the compound, the greater the percent composition of sulfur. In this case, MgS would be that compound, since Mg has the lowest molar mass of the four elements bonded to S.
