Question

How to do q solution, qrxn, moles of Mg , and delta Hrxn?

Answer 1

Answer:

14, 508J/K

ΔHrxn =q/n

where q = heat absorbed and n = moles

Explanation:

m = mass of substance (g) = 0.1184g

1 mole of Mg - 24g

n moles - 0.1184g

n = 0.0049 moles.

Also, q = m × c × ΔT

Heat Capacity, C of MgCl2 = 71.09 J/(mol K)

∴ specific heat c of MgCL2 = 71.09/0.0049 (from the formula c = C/n)

= 14, 508 J/K/kg

ΔT=  (final - initial) temp = 38.3 - 27.2

= 11.1 °C.

mass of MgCl2 = 95.211 × 0.1184 = 11.27

⇒ q = 11.27g × 11.1 °C × 14, 508 j/K/kg

= 1,7117.7472 J °C-1 g-1

∴ ΔHrxn = q/n

=1,7117.7472  ÷ 0.1184

= 14, 508J/K
