A researcher studying the nutritional value of a new candy places a 4.90 g sample of the candy inside a bomb calorimeter and com

busts it in excess oxygen. The observed temperature increase is 2.08 ∘C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 33.50 kJ⋅K−1, how many nutritional Calories are there per gram of the candy?

Answer:

449730.879 cal/g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sample = 4.9 g

Change in temperature  = 2.08 °C  (275.23 k)

Heat capacity of calorimeter = 33.50 KJ . K⁻¹

Solution:

C(candy) = Q/m

Q = C (calorimeter) × ΔT

C(candy) = C (calorimeter) × ΔT / m

C(candy) =  33.50 KJ . K⁻¹ × 275.23 K / 4.90 g

C(candy) = 9220.205 KJ / 4.90 g

C(candy) =  1881.674 KJ / g

It is known that,

1 KJ /g = 239.006 cal/g

1881.674 × 239.006 = 449730.879 cal/g

Knowing the molarity of a solution is more meaningful than knowing whether a solution is dilute or concentrated. explain.
ser-zykov [4K]
Molarity is a measure of a solution's concentration calculation by getting the ratio of the number of moles of solute to the total volume of solution. This has a unit of M or molar, equivalent to mole/L. 

It is more important and meaningful to know the molarity rather than if the solution is dilute or concentrated because molarity gives the QUANTITATIVE approach of knowing the concentration while the second one only gives us the QUALITATIVE description of the solution. Hence, we are able to calculate for other unknown parameters if we have the molarity known.

Can you guys help me answer question 5 on homogeneous mixture tysm
hjlf

Answer:

Hope this helped :) good luck! ❤️

Explanation:

A <em>coolant solution</em> is a <u><em>homogeneous </em></u>mixture because the coolant particles are not chemically combined with the water (keep their properties) and they are evenly distributed throughout the water.

(Yield Problem)
alex41 [277]

Answer:

Percent Yield Fe  =  82.5%

Explanation:

The actual yield is the value produced after an experiment is conducted. The theoretical yield is the value calculated using the balanced chemical equation and atomic/molar masses.

To find the percent yield of iron (Fe), you need to (1) convert grams Al to moles Al (via atomic mass), then (2) convert moles Al to moles Fe (via mole-to-mole ratio from equation coefficients), then (3) convert moles Fe to grams Fe (via atomic mass), and then (4) calculate the percent yield. It is important to arrange the ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the sig figs of the given values.

Atomic Mass (Mg): 24.305 g/mol

Atomic Mass (Fe): 55.845 g/mol

3 Mg + 2 FeCl₃ -----> 2 Fe + 3 MgCl₂

20.5 g Mg           1 mole              2 moles Fe            55.845 g
-----------------  x  -----------------  x  ----------------------  x  -----------------  =  
                           24.305 g           3 moles Mg             1 mole

=  31.4 g Fe

                                     Actual Yield
Percent Yield  =  ----------------------------------  x  100%
                                 Theoretical Yield

                               25.9 g Fe
Percent Yield  =  --------------------  x  100%
                               31.4 g Fe

Percent Yield  =  82.5%

HELP. NO FAKE ANSWERS. I WILL REPORT. I AM CONFUSED AND NEED HELP. FILL IN THE NOT FILLED BOXES POR FAVOR.
SCORPION-xisa [38]
Question #1
Potasium hydroxide (known)
 volume used is 25 ml 
Molarity (concentration) = 0.150 M
Moles of KOH used 
           0.150 × 25/1000 = 0.00375 moles
Sulfuric acid (H2SO4) 
volume used = 15.0 ml
unknown concentration
The equation for the reaction is
2KOH (aq)+ H2SO4(aq) = K2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l) 
Thus, the Mole ratio of KOH to H2SO4 is 2:1
Therefore, moles of H2SO4 used will be;
      0.00375 × 1/2 = 0.001875 moles
Acid (sulfuric acid)  concentration
    0.001875 moles × 1000/15  
        = 0.125 M

Question #2
Hydrogen bromide (acid)
Volume used = 30 ml
Concentration is 0.250 M
Moles of HBr used;
      0.25 × 30/1000
        =  0.0075 moles 
Sodium Hydroxide (base)
Volume used 20 ml 
Concentration (unknown)
The equation for the reaction is 
NaOH + HBr = NaBr + H2O
The mole ratio of NaOH : HBr   is 1 : 1
Therefore, moles of NaOH used;
                 = 0.0075 moles
NaOH concentration will be 
       = 0.0075 moles × 1000/20
       = 0.375 M
