Ymorist [56]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: (see explanation part)

Explanation:

A piece of solid material of specific heat c unknown is weighed with a balance, m resulting in its mass. The piece is put in almost boiling water at temperature T.

M grams of water are put on the calorimeter, it is stirred and after a short time, its temperature T0 is measured.

The solid part is quickly deposited in the calorimeter. It is stirred, and after a certain time the equilibrium temperature Te is reached.

The data is recorded and c is cleared of the formula that's attached (please take a look).

<span>My only guess is obtain a metal and heat it in a boiling water bath (of known temperature) this will be your initial temperature. Now obtain a calorimeter cup with water of known temperature as well. Place the metal into the calorimeter cup and record the temperature after 5 minutes. You now have delta T, mass of the metal, and Q. Solve for C.

Hope this helps xox :)</span>

1. How many grams would 8.1 x 1021 molecules of sucrose (C12H22011)<br> weigh?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Mass = 4.6 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of molecules of sucrose = 8.1 ×10²¹ molecules

Mass of sucrose = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of moles by using Avogadro number.

1 mole × 8.1 ×10²¹ molecules / 6.022×10²³ molecules

1.35 × 10⁻² mol

Mass of sucrose:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Molar mass = 342.3 g/mol

Mass = 1.35 × 10⁻² mol ×342.3 g/mol

Mass = 462.1  × 10⁻² g

Mass = 4.6 g

If 15.00 mL of 0.0100 M Ca(IO3)2 solution are mixed with 0.500 g KI, what is the theoretical yield (in grams) of I2?
n200080 [17]

The theoretical yield of I2 in the reaction would be 0.23 g

<h3>Theoretical yield</h3>

This refers to the stoichiometric yield of a reaction.

From the equation of the reaction:

Ca(IO3)2 + 10 KI + 12 HCl → 6 I2 + CaCl2 + 10 KCl + 6 H2O

The mole ratio of Ca(IO3)2 and I2 is 1: 6

Mole of 15.00 mL, 0.0100 M Ca(IO3)2 = 15/1000 x 0.0100

                                                              = 0.00015 mole

Equivalent mole of I2 = 0.00015 x 6

                                      = 0.009 mole

mass of 0.0009 I2 = 0.0009 x 253.809

                                = 0.23 g
