A 51.9g sample of iron, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.449·J·g?1°C?1, is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) t

hat contains 300.0g of water. The temperature of the water starts off at 19.0°C. When the temperature of the water stops changing it's 20.3°C. The pressure remains constant at 1atm. Calculate the initial temperature of the iron sample. Be sure your answer is rounded to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

the initial temperature of the iron sample is Ti = 90,36 °C

Explanation:

Assuming the calorimeter has no heat loss to the surroundings:

Q w + Q iron = 0

Also when the T stops changing means an equilibrium has been reached and therefore, in that moment, the temperature of the water is the same that the iron ( final temperature of water= final temperature of iron = T )  

Assuming Q= m*c*( T- Tir)  

mc*cc*(T-Tc)+mir*cir*(T - Tir) = 0

 Tir = 20.3 °C + 300 g * 4.186 J/g°C * (20.3 C - 19 °C) / ( 51.9 g * 0.449 J/g°C )

 Tir = 90.36 °C

Note :

- The specific heat capacity of water is assumed 1 cal/g°C = 4.186 J/g°C  

- We assume no reaction between iron and water

For many years chloroform (CHCl3) was used as an inhalation anesthetic in spite of the fact that it is also a toxic substance th
Debora [2.8K]

Hey there!:

Molar mass:

CHCl3 = ( 12.01 * 1 )+ (1.008 * 1 ) + ( 35.45 * 3 ) => 119.37 g/mol

C% =  ( atomic mass C / molar mass CHCl3 ) * 100

For C :

C % =  (12.01 / 119.37 ) * 100

C% = ( 0.1006 * 100 )

C% =  10.06 %

For H :

H% = ( atomic mass H / molar mass CHCl3 ) * 100

H% = ( 1.008 / 119.37 ) * 100

H% = 0.008444 * 100

H% = 0.8444 %

For Cl :

Cl % ( molar mass Cl3 / molar mass CHCl3 ):

Cl% =  ( 3 * 35.45 / 119.37 ) * 100

Cl% =  ( 106.35 / 119.37 ) * 100

Cl% = 0.8909 * 100

Cl% = 89.9%


Hope that helps!

What is meant by the term neutral in relation to atoms?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

it means positive and negative charges are  equal.

Explanation:

An atom consist of electron, protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are present with in nucleus while the electrons are present out side the nucleus.

All these three subatomic particles construct an atom. A neutral atom have equal number of proton and electron. In other words we can say that negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude and cancel the each other. For example if neutral atom has 6 protons than it must have 6 electrons. The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom.

when a neutral atom loses a electron positive charge is created because  number of protons are positive charge becomes greater than negative charge.

X → X⁺ + e⁻

When a neutral atom accept  the electron negative charge is created because negative charge is become greater than positive charge.

X + e⁻ → X⁻

Suppose a scientist proposes a plan to destroy all bacteria on Earth in order to get rid of diseases caused by bacteria. Explain
dimulka [17.4K]
This would not be a good idea because bacteria is everywhere and function as a part of out everyday lives. Starting off with animals, many animals rely on bacteria to digest their food so many animals would begin to die off. Ecosystems would fail due to nitrogen not being able to cycle.
Without bacteria biological waste would build up causing a drop in population, eventually going extinct.
Basically, the balance of nature between humans, animals, and plants would no longer exist.
