A 30.5 g sample of an alloy at 95.0°C is placed into 49.3 g water at 24.3°C in an insulated coffee cup. The heat capacity of the

coffee cup (without the water) is 9.2 J/K. If the final temperature of the system is 31.1°C, what is the specific heat capacity of the alloy? (c of water is 4.184 J/g×K)

Answer:

0.752 J/g*K

Explanation:

The heat lost by the alloy (which is negative) must be equal to the heat gained by the water and the coffee cup:

-Qa = Qw + Qc

-ma*ca*ΔTa = mw*cw*ΔTw + C*ΔTc

Where, m is the mass, c is the specific heat capacity, C is the heat capacity of the coffee cup, ΔT is the change in temperature, a represents the alloy, and w the water.

The coffee cup has initial temperature equal to the water, then:

-30.5*ca*(31.1 - 95.0) = 49.3*4.184*(31.1 - 24.3) + 9.2*(31.1 - 24.3)

1948.95ca = 1465.20

ca = 0.752 J/g*K

How many molecules are contained in 0.800 mol o2?
Ksenya-84 [330]
Multiply .800 moles of O2 by Avagadro's number divided by 1 mole. This will get rid of the moles on the bottom and leave you with molecules. So technically .800 times 6.02x10^23.

<h3>Answer:  b) 0.250 mol</h3>

============================================

Work Shown:

Using the periodic table, we see that

  • 1 mole of carbon = 12 grams
  • 1 mole of oxygen = 16 grams

These are approximations and these values are often found underneath the atomic symbol. For example, the atomic weight listed under carbon is roughly 12.011 grams. I'm rounding to 2 sig figs in those numbers listed above.

So 1 mole of CO2 is approximately 12+2*16 = 44 grams. The 2 is there since we have 2 oxygens attached to the carbon atom.

-------------------

Since 1 mole of CO2 is 44 grams, we can use that to convert from grams to moles.

11.0 grams of CO2 = (11.0 grams)*(1 mol/44 g) = (11.0/44) mol = 0.250 mol of CO2

In short,

11.0 grams of CO2 = 0.250 mol of CO2

This is approximate.

We don't need to use any of the information in the table.
