Answer:

  • a) Heat = 590 kJ

  • b) Endothermic

Explanation:

<em>Endothermi</em>c processes absorb energy. The final state contains more energy than the initial state.

Since ice absorbs heat energy <em>in the process of completely melting</em> this is an <em>endothermic</em> process.

The process involves two stages: 1) heating the ice up to the melting point, which is 0ºC, and 2) melting the ice.

1. Heating the ice from -15ºC to 0ºC

a) Formula: Q = m×C×ΔT

  • m = 1.6 kg
  • C = 2.108 kJ/kg.ºC (specific heat of ice)
  • ΔT = 15ºC

b) Calculations:

  • Q = m×C×ΔT = 1.6 kg × 2.108 kJ/kg.ºC  × 15ºC = 50.592 kJ

2. Melting the ice at 0ºC

a) Formula:  L = m × ΔHf

  • m = 1.6 kg
  • ΔHf = 334 kJ/kg (latent heat of fussion)

b) Calculations

  •    L = m × ΔHf = 1.6 kg × 334 kJ/kg = 534.40 kJ

<u />

<u>2. Total heat</u>

<u />

  • 50.592 kJ + 534.40 kJ = 584.992 kJ ≈ 590 kJ (rounded to 2 significant figures)

Question 3 (Molarity)
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

The molarity of the solution is 1,03 M.

Explanation:

Molarity is a concentration measure that expresses the moles of solute (in this case HBR) in 1 liter of solution (1000ml). First we calculate the mass of 1 mol of HBr, to calculate the moles that are in 50 g of said compound:

Weight 1 mol HBr= Weight H + Weight Br= 1,01g + 79,90g= 80, 91 g/mol

80,91 g ----1 mol HBr

50,0 g------x= (50,0 g x1 mol HBr)/80,91 g= 0,62 mol HBr

600 ml solution-----0,62 mol HBr

1000ml solution------x= (1000ml solution x 0,62 mol HBr)/600 ml solution

<em>x=1,03 moles HBr ---> The solution is 1,03M</em>

IgorC [24]

Answer:

a. Thermal energy in transit due to spatial temperature difference .

Explanation:

Heat transfer -

Heat transfer is the exchange of the thermal energy or heat in between any physical systems .

It is the flow of energy or any form of energy from one system to another .

Heat transfer is divided into various mechanism , one of which is the thermal .

The thermal energy is the transit due to the spacial temperature difference .
