Two substances A and B, initially at different temperatures, are thermally isolated from their surroundings and allowed to come

into thermal contact. The mass of substance A is twice the mass of substance B, but the specific heat capacity of substance B is four times the specific heat capacity of substance A. Which substance will undergo a larger change in temperature?

Answer:

B

Explanation:

For solving this we need a heat balance

Q_{a} = Q_{b}\\m_{a}*C_{a}*\Delta T_{a} = m_{b}*C_{b}*\Delta T_{b}

By changing the corresponding relations, we have

m_{a}*C_{a}*\Delta T_{a} = \frac{1}{2}m_{a}*4C_{a}*\Delta T_{b} \\\\\\

By cancelling similar factor, we obtain

\Delta T_{a} = 2 \Delta T_{b}\\\frac{\Delta T_{a}}{\Delta T_{b}} = 2\\

Which means that the change of temperature in A is twice the change of B

18. What is the percent by mass sugar of a solution made by dissolving 12.45 grams of sugar in 100 grams of water?
Fantom [35]

The percent by mass sugar of a solution : 11.07%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass of sugar = 12.45 g

mass of water = 100 g

Required

The percent by mass

Solution

Mass of solution :

\tt mass~sugar+mass~water=12.45+100=112.45~g

Percent mass of sugar :

\tt \%mass=\dfrac{mass~sugar}{mass~solution}\times 100\%\\\\\%mass=\dfrac{12.45}{112.45}\times 100\%=11.07\%

What volume would 0.853 moles of Nitrogen gas occupy at STP?
beks73 [17]

Answer:

19.12 L

Explanation:

At STP(i.e. Standard temperature and pressure).

The volume occupied by one mole of gas = 22.4 L

The pressure = 1 atm

The temperature = 273 K

Thus, since 1 mole of gas = 22.4 L;

Then 0.853 moles of N2 gas will occupy:

= (0.853 moles of N2 gas × 22.4 L)/ 1 mole of N2 gas

= 19.12 L
