For the following scenarios what is the metal? A piece of metal weighing 59.047 g was heated to 100.0 degree C and then put it i

nto 100.0 mL of water (initially at 23.7 degree C). The metal and water were allowed to come to an equilibrium temperature, determined to be 27.8 degree C. Assuming no heat lost to the environment, calculate the specific heat of the metal. A 25.6 g piece of metal was taken from a beaker of boiling water at 100.0 degree C and placed directly into a calorimeter holding 100.0 mL of water at 25.0 degree C. The calorimeter heat capacity is 1.23 J/K. Given that the final temperature at thermal equilibrium is 26.2 degree C, determine the specific heat capacity of the metal.

Answer:

a) C_{metal}=- \frac{100 gr * 4.186 \frac{J}{gr C} (27.8 -23.7)C}{ 59.047 gr *(27.8-100)C} =0.402 \frac{J}{ g C}

b) C_{metal}= \frac{100 gr * 4.184 \frac{J}{gr C} (1.2)C +1.23 \frac{J}{K} (1.2 K))}{ 25.6 gr *(100-26.2)C} =0.267 \frac{J}{ g C}

Explanation:

Part a

For this case we have the following data:

m_{metal}= 59.047 gr the mass of the metal

c_{metal}=? Is the value that we need to find

T_{f}= 27.8 C represent the final temperature of equilibrium for the metal and the water

T_{i, metal}= 100 C represent the initial temperature for the metal

m_{water}= 100 gr since the density is 1g/ml

C= 4.186 \frac{J}{g C} the specific heat for the liquid water

T_{i, water}= 23.7 C the initial temperature for the water

For this case we have this equation:

\sum_{i=1}^n Q_i =0 if we have balance then we have this:

Q_{water} = -Q_{metal}

And if we replace the formulas for heat we got:

100 gr * 4.186 \frac{J}{gr C} (27.8 -23.7)C =- 59.047 gr * C_{metal}*(27.8-100)C

And if we solve for C_{metal} we got:

C_{metal}=- \frac{100 gr * 4.184 \frac{J}{gr C} (27.8 -23.7)C}{ 59.047 gr *(27.8-100)C} =0.402 \frac{J}{ g C}

Part b

For this case we have the following balance:

Q_{lost} = Q_{gained}

On this case the metal loss heat and this heat is gained by the water and the calorimeter, so we have this:

Q_{lost} = Q_{w} + Q_{calorimeter}

And if we replace the info given we have this:

25.6 gr *C_{metal} *(100-26.2)C = 100 gr * 4.184 \frac{J}{gr C} (26.2-25)C + 1.23 \frac{J}{K} (26.2+273 -25 -273)K

And if we solve for C_{metal} we got:

C_{metal}= \frac{100 gr * 4.184 \frac{J}{gr C} (1.2)C +1.23 \frac{J}{K} (1.2 K))}{ 25.6 gr *(100-26.2)C} =0.267 \frac{J}{ g C}

Which of the following will be most soluble in octane?
natima [27]

Answer:

CH3CH3CH2CH3

Explanation:

Octane is a non-polar compound. It is a hydrocarbon with 8-carbon length along its chain.

It belongs to a special group of hydrocarbons called alkanes.

What makes a substance soluble in another?

   It is a common phrase that  "like dissolves like". This is applicable to solubility of substances in another.

  • A polar solvent will freely and easily dissolve a polar solute. For example, water and salt.
  • A non-polar solvent will also dissolve a non-polar solute. This case, hydrocarbons will dissolve themselves.
  • The first option is a butane, a 4-carbon length hydrocarbon which will be dissolved in octane.
  • Both compounds are non-polar.

In a chemical reaction how does the mass of the reactants compare with the mass of the products?
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

The mass of the reactants compared with the mass of the products should be the same if the reactants are in stoichiometric amounts.

Explanation:

In this question, they ask about chemical reactions and the comparison of the mass of reactants and products. Firstly, it is necessary to introduce the mass conservation principle.

Mass conservation principle mentions that in a chemical reaction, the total mass of reactants is equal to the total mass of products (if the reaction is fully developed). It means mass is not created or destroyed, only transforms from reactants to products.

For example, the mass of sodium plus the mass of chlorine that reactswith the sodium equals the mass of the product sodium chloride.Because atoms are only rearranged in a chemical reaction, there mustbe the same number of sodium atoms and chlorine atoms in both thereactants and products.

Finally, we can conclude that The mass of the reactants compared with the mass of the products should be the same if the reactants are in stoichiometric amounts.

What is the difference between the atomic number and the mass number of an element?
DedPeter [7]

Mass number is the number of protons and neutrons in an atom, and it tells us about the mass of the atom in amu, or atomic mass units. Atomic mass is the average mass of all the isotopes of a certain type. It is a weighted average that takes into account the abundances of all of the different isotopes

hope this helps :)
