How can you determine the specific heat of a metal using a calorimeter? make a hypothesis

Chemistry

Sever21 [200]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

One can determine the specific heat of the metal through using the clarimeter, water, thermometer and using heat equations.

Explanation:

You can learn about heat effects and calorimetery through a simple experiment by boiling water and heating up the metal in it. Then, pour it into your calorimeter and the heat will flow from the metal to the water. The two equlibria will meet: the metal will loose heat into its surroundings (the water) and teh water will absorb the heat. The heat flow for the water is the same as it is for the metal, the only difference being is the negative sign indicating the loss of the heat of the metal.

In terms of theromdynamics, we can deteremine the heat flow for the metal becasue it would be equal to the mangnitued but opposite in direction. Thus, we can say that the specific heat of water qH2O = -qmetal.

g100num [7]

Answer:

A ,B- false

C,D- true

Explanation:

Dipole forces always lead to stronger attraction and boiling points than dispersion forces. When linear molecules are involved, they often posses greater dipole forces and higher boiling points. Linear alkanes posses higher boiling points than branched alkanes.

When was copper discovered?​
Vesna [10]

Answer:

9000 BC

Explanation:

Although various copper tools and decorative items dating back as early as 9000 BCE have been discovered, archaeological evidence suggests that it was the early Mesopotamians who, around 5000 to 6000 years ago, were the first to fully harness the ability to extract and work with copper.

There are 3.45 moles of (NH4)2 SO4, how many grams is this?
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

455.4 g

Explanation:

Data given:

no. of moles of (NH₄)₂SO₄= 3.45 mol

mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = ?

Solution

Formula will be used

           no.of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

Rearrange the above equation for mass

           mass in grams = no. of moles x molar mass . . . . . . . . (1)

molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄

molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 2(14 + 4(1)) + 32 + 4(16)

molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 2 (14 +4) + 32 + 64  

molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 2 (18) + 32 + 64

molar mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 36 + 32 + 64 = 132 g/mol

Put values in equation 1

           mass in grams = 3.45 mole x 132 g/mol

           mass in grams = 455.4 g

So,

mass of (NH₄)₂SO₄ = 455.4 g
