To begin the experiment, 1.11g of methane CH4 is burned in a bomb calorimeter containing 1000 grams of water. The initial temper

ature of water is 24.85oC. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g oC. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 695 J/ oC . After the reaction the final temperature of the water is 35.65oC.
Using the formula waterq =m•c•ΔT ,calculate the heat absorbed by the water

In order to calculate the enthalpy of the reaction, we first calculate the heat released using the given formula.
Q = mc<span>ΔT
Q = 1000 x 4.184 x (35.65 - 24.85)
Q = 45187.2 J = 45.2 kJ

Now, we determine the moles of methane that were burned.
Moles = mass / Mr
Moles = 1.11 / (12 + 4)
Moles = 0.07

The enthalpy of a reaction is the energy released per mole, so the enthalpy in this case is:
</span>ΔH = 45.2 / 0.07
ΔH = 645.7 kJ/mol

Can we used glass beaker instead of plastic cup for the calorimeter experiments?
Mice21 [21]
No, because plastic cups can be dissolved by organic compounds. Moreover, they are easily melted so a highly exothermic reaction can not be studied using them.

A student takes a measured volume of 3.00 M HCl to prepare a 50.0 mL sample of 1.80 M HCI. What volume of 3.00 M HCI
frozen [14]

Answer:

30 mL VOLUME OF 3.0 M HCl SHOULD BE USED BY THE STUDENT TO MAKE A 1.80 M IN 50 mL OF HCl.

Explanation:

M1 = 3.00 M

M2 = 1.80 M

V2 = 50 .0 mL = 50 /1000 L = 0.05 L

V1 = unknown

In solving this question, we know that number of moles of a solution is equal to the molar concentration multiplied by the volume. To compare two samples, we equate both number of moles and substitute for the required component.

So we use the equation:

                                  M1 V1 = M2 V2

V1 = M2 V2 / M1

V2 = 1.80 * 0.05 / 3.0

V2 = 0.09 /3.0

V2 = 0.03 L or 30 mL

To prepare the sample of 1.80 M HCl in 50.0 mL from a 3.0 M HCl, 30 mL volume should be used.

What is the molar mass of cholesterol if 0.00105 mol weighs 0.406 g?
goblinko [34]
<h3>Answer: 386.67 g/mol </h3>

Explanation:

Molar Mass = Mass ÷ Mole

                   =  0.406 g ÷ 0.00105 mol

                   =  386.67 g/mol

∴ molar mass of cholesterol = 386.67 g/mol
