Answer:
Some chemical indicators perceived while a piece of paper is burning are:
Production of an Odor: there is a smell of burnt paper
Change in Temperature: combustion is a highly exothermic reaction , so the temperature increase
Change in Color: paper changes to ashes as the burning process occurs
Answer: 13.888g
Explanation:
CaCO3 —> CaO + CO2
From the equation above, 1mole of CaCO3 produces 1mole of CaO. Since the answer is to be expressed in grams, let us covert this mole to grams. This is illustrated below:
MM of CaCO3 = 40 +12 + (16x3) = 40 + 12 + 48 = 100g/mol
MM of CaO = 40 + 16 = 56g/mol
From the equation,
100g of CaCO3 produced 56g CaO
Therefore, 24.8g of CaCO3 will produce Xg of CaO i.e
Xg of CaO = (24.8 x 56) / 100 = 13.888g
Therefore, the theoretical yield of CaO is 13.888g
Specific heat of Aluminium is 0.89 g/J
Explanation:
Step 1 :
Specific heat of a substance is the energy absorbed by a substance of unit mass when its temperature increases by one degree.
Energy Absorbed = Specific Heat * Mass of the substance * Temperature Difference
Step 2 :
It is given that 120 g sample absorbs 9612 J energy when the temperature increases from 298K to 388K.
Temperature Difference = 388 K - 298 K = 90 K
Step 3:
Specific Heat = (Energy Absorbed) ÷ (Mass of the substance * Temperature Difference)
Specific Heat = 9612 ÷ (120 * 90) = 0.89 grams / Joule
Step 4:
Answer:
Specific heat of Aluminium is 0.89 g/J
