How many liters of oxygen gas, at standard temperature and pressure, will react with 35.4 grams of calcium metal? Show all of th
katrin [286]
At STP, P = 1 atm, and T = 0 C
Thus, PV = nRT => V = nR(273). We will use this later...
if you have 35.4 Ca, and the molar mass of Ca is 40.08, you get .883 moles Ca. Thus, since it takes 2 moles of Ca to form a reaction, you only need half the moles of Ca of O2. Thus, n(O2) = .883/2
Tie this back to the first equation and you get
V = .442 * <span>0.082057(which is R) * 273 = 9.9 L</span>

A lead mass is heated and placed in a foam cup calorimeter containing 50.0 ml of water at 18.0°c. the water reaches a temperatur
garri49 [273]
Heat gained or loss in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is expressed as follows:<span>

Heat = mC(T2-T1) 

When two objects are in contact, it should be that the heat lost is equal to what is gained by the other. So, the heat released by the lead is equal to the heat that is absorbed by the water. 

</span>Heat = mC(T2-T1) = 50.0 mL (1.00 g/mL) (4.18 J/g °C) (20 °C - 18 °C) = 418 J<span>
