How much heat is required to heat 5.25 g of water h2o from 5.5?

1 answer:

5 0

Heat = mass * heat capacity of water * change in temperature mass = 5.25 g heat capacity of water = 4.186 joule/gram °C Change in temperature = 62.8°C - 5.3°C = 57.5 °C Plug in the values heat = 5.25 g * 4.186 joule/gram °C * 57.5 °C = 1263.6 J Rounded to two three significant figures, it is 1260 J of energy needed. In terms of calories, the heat capacity of water is 1 calorie/gram °C. So do the plugging in all over again. mass = 5.25 g heat capacity of water = 1 calorie/gram °C Change in temperature = 62.8°C - 5.3°C = 57.5 °C heat = 5.25 g * 1 calorie/gram °C * 57.5 °C = 301.9 calories Rounded to 3 significant figures, it is 302 calories Q=SM∆T=4.18*5.25*(62.8-4.3)=1280 J 1280 J * (1 cal/4.18 J) = 307 cal

When researchers cool a gas, which of the following has occurred? Select all that apply.

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer is: Velocity and spacing of particles is reduced and Volume of substance decreases relative to temperature decrease.

Charles' Law (The Temperature-Volume Law) - the volume of a given amount of gas held at constant pressure is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂.

When temperature goes down, the volume also goes down.

Velocity is equivalent to a specification of its speed and direction of motion, it is a physical vector quantity. Less enegry (lower temperature), lower the velocity.

Choose the best tool for each scenario.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

a) Graph

b) Weight balance or gas syringe or upside-down measuring cylinder

Explanation:

a) Identifying a trend in temperature change over time - The best tool for this scenario is to represents the temperature daily, weekly, monthly or annually on graph to interpret the fluctuation in temperature owing to local seasonal changes and weather conditions

b) Measuring the mass of a product of a chemical reaction - If the product is solid or liquid then the balance is used to measure the mass. If the product is a gas, then gas syringe or upside-down measuring cylinder is used.

A chemist prepares a solution of sodium chloride(NaCl) by measuring out 25.4g of sodium chloride into a 100ml volumetric flask a

labwork [276]

Answer: 4 molL-1

Explanation:

Detailed solution is shown in the image attached. The number of moles of NaCl is first obtained. Since the molarity must be in units of molL-1, the volume is divided by 1000 and the formula stated in the solution is applied and the answer is given to one significant figure.
