A volume of 75.0 mL of H2O is initially at room temperature (22.00 ∘C). A chilled steel rod at 2.00 ∘C is placed in the water. I

f the final temperature of the system is 21.50 ∘C , what is the mass of the steel bar? Use the following values: specific heat of water = 4.18 J/(g⋅∘C) specific heat of steel = 0.452 J/(g⋅∘C)

Answer: 17.78g

Explanation:

Assume there is no heat exchange with the environment, then the amount of heat taken by the steel rod, Q(s), is equal to the amount of heat lost by the water, Q(w), but with opposite sign.

Q(s) = -Q(w)

Remember, Q = mc(ΔΦ)

Where Q = amount of heat

m = mass of steel

c = specific heat capacity of steel

ΔΦ = Initial temperature T1 - Final temperature T2

Q = mc(T1-T2)

Recall, Q(s) = -Q(w). Then,

m(s)*c(s)*(T1s - T2s) = - m(w)*c(w)*(T1w - T2w)

Substituting each values

Note: m(w) = volume of water*density = 75mL*1g/mL = 75g

m(s)*0.452*(21.5-2) = -75*4.18*(21.5-22)

m(s)*8.814 = 156.75

m(s) = 156.75/8.814

m(s) = 17.78g

Therefore, the mass of steel is 17.78g

Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2): g/mol
Eva8 [605]

To determine the molar mass, you need to get the atomic mass of the molecule. To do this, check the periodic table for the atomic mass or average atomic weight of each element.

Mg = 24.305 x 1 = 24.305 amu

O = 15.9994 x 2 =31.9988 amu

H = 1.0079 x 2 = 2.0158 amu

 

Then, add all the components to get the atomic mass of the molecule.

24.305 amu + 31.9988 amu + 2.0158 amu = 58.3196 amu


The atomic mass is just equivalent to its molar mass.

So, the molar mass of Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) is 58.3196 g/mol.
