Toluene, C7H8, is used in the manufacture of explosives such as TNT (trinitrotoluene). A 1.500 g sample of liquid toluene was pl

aced in a bomb calorimeter along with excess oxygen. When the combustion of the toluene was initiated, the temperature of the calorimeter rose from 25.000 °C to 26.413 °C. The products of the combustion are CO2(g) and H2O(l), and the heat capacity of the calorimeter was 45.06 kJ °C-1. Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction in the calorimeter. How many joules were liberated by the reaction? How many joules would be liberated under similar conditions if 1.000 mol of toluene was burned?

Answer:

There were 63.67 kJ liberated

If 1 mol of toluene was burned, there would be liberated 3906 kJ / mole

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the toluene sample = 1.500 grams

The temperature of the calorimeter rose from 25.000 °C to 26.413 °C

<em>Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction in the calorimeter.</em>

C7H8(l)  +  9O2(g) ⇒  7CO2(g) + 4H2O(l)

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate Q of the calorimeter

Q = C * Δt

Q = 45.06 kJ/ °C * ( 26.413 - 25)

Q =<u> 63.67 kJ </u>

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate moles of toluene

Moles toluene = mass toluene / molar mass toluene

Moles toluene = 1.500 grams /92.14 g/mol

Moles toluene = 0.0163 moles

<u>Step 4:</u>  Calculate energy per mole

energy per mole = 63.67 kJ / 0.0163 moles = 3906 kJ / mole

Which statement correctly compares electric charge with electric current?
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Your answer would be D) They both require a movement of charged particles

Explanation:

In short terms both the charge and the current are made up of charged particles that are always moving, they constantly move to well... stay charged, if they stopped, then the charge would fade until there is nothing left, and if there is nothing left -it means there would be no electricity to use

What happens to the volume of a gas in a closed container if the temperature increases, but the pressure remains the same? Why?
labwork [276]

Answer:

Volume will goes to increase.

Explanation:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

So when the temperature goes to increase the volume of gas also increase. Higher temperature increase the kinetic energy and molecules move randomly every where in given space so volume increase.

Now we will put the suppose values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂/T₁  

V₂ = 4.5 L × 348 K / 298 k

V₂ = 1566 L.K / 298 K

V₂ = 5.3 L

Hence prove that volume increase by increasing the temperature.

Calcula la densidad de un cuerpo que tiene la masa de 12g y un volumen de 3cm^3 dar el resultado en unidades del SI
kvv77 [185]

The density is 4 g/cm³ or 4000 kg/m³.

Density = mass/volume = 12 g/3 cm³ = 4 g/cm³

The measurement of 4 g/cm³ is already in <em>SI units</em>.  

In SI <em>bas</em>e units,  

Density = (4 g/1 cm³) × (1 kg/1000 g) × (100 cm/1 m)³ = 4000 kg/m³

What products are formed in the electrolysis of 1.0 M<br> aqueous HBr?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Hydrogen (H₂) gas at the cathode and Bromine (Br₂) gas at the anode

Explanation:

Bromine gas is evolved at anode.Since bromide ion is negatively charged it will go to anode to be oxidized and lose electrons.

while, Hydrogen gas is evolved at cathode .Since hydrogen ion is positively charged it will go to cathode reduced and gain electrons.
