A calorimeter contains 124 g of water at 26.6°C. A block of metal with a mass of 26 g is heated to 95.8°C and then placed in the

water in the calorimeter. After sufficient time, the temperature of the water is measured and found to be 29.0°C. Calculate the heat capacity per gram of metal. Assume no heat is lost to the calorimeter or the surroundings.

Answer:

The heat capacity of the metal is 0.717 J/g°C

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of water = 124.0 grams

Mass of metal = 26.0 grams

Temperature of water = 26.6 °C

Temperature of metal = 95.8 °C

Final temperature of the water = 29.0 °C

<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate heat capacity of metal

Qlost = -Q gained

Qmetal = -Qwater

Q = m*c*ΔT

⇒ with m = mass in grams

⇒ c= the heat capacity in J/g°C

⇒ ΔT = The change in temperature = T2 - T1 (in °C)

Qmetal = -Qwater

m(metal)*c(metal)*ΔT(metal) = -m(water)*c(water)*ΔT(water)

26 *c(metal) *(29-95.8) = -124 * 4.184 *(29-26.6)

-1736.8 * c(metal) = -1245.16

c(metal) = 0.717 J/g°C

The heat capacity of the metal is 0.717 J/g°C

Which substance contains bonds that involve a transfer of electrons from one atom to another
cestrela7 [59]
An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds are formed between a cation, which is usually a metal, and an anion, which is usually a nonmetal. A covalent bond involves a pair of electrons being shared between atoms.

A sample of an ideal gas at 1.00 atm and a volume of 1.84 L was placed in a weighted balloon and dropped into the ocean. As the
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

0.0613 L

Explanation:

Given data

  • Initial pressure (P₁): 1.00 atm
  • Initial volume (V₁): 1.84 L
  • Final pressure (P₂): 30.0 atm
  • Final volume (V₂): ?

Since we are dealing with an ideal gas, we can calculate the final volume using Boyle's law.

P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂

V₂ = P₁ × V₁ / P₂

V₂ = 1.00 atm × 1.84 L / 30.0 atm

V₂ = 0.0613 L

In a constant‑pressure calorimeter, 60.0 mL of 0.300 M Ba(OH)2 was added to 60.0 mL of 0.600 M HCl. The reaction caused the temp
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

ΔH = 57.04 Kj/mole H₂O

Explanation:

60ml(0.300M Ba(OH)₂(aq) + 60ml(0.600M HCl(aq)

=> 0.06(0.3)mole Ba(OH)₂(aq) + 0.60(0.6)mole HCl(aq)

=> 0.018mole Ba(OH)₂(aq) + 0.036mole HCl(aq)

=> 100% conversion of reactants => 0.018mole BaCl₂(aq) + 0.036mole H₂O(l) + Heat

ΔH = mcΔT/moles H₂O <==> Heat Transfer / mole H₂O

=(120g)(4.0184j/g°C)(27.74°C - 23.65°C)/(0.036mole H₂O)

ΔH = 57,042 j/mole H₂O = 57.04 Kj/mole H₂O
