Answer:- 38.2 g.

Solution:- The equation used for solving this type of calorimetry problems is:

q=mc\Delta T

where, q is the heat energy, m is mass, c is specific heat and delta T is the change in temperature.

Water temperature is increasing from 14.5 degree C to 50.0 degree C.

\Delta T=50.0-14.5  = 35.5 degree C

q is given as 5680 J and specific heat value is 4.186\frac{J}{g.^0C} .

The equation could be rearranged for m as:

m=\frac{q}{c*\Delta T}

Let's plug in the values in it:

m=\frac{5680}{4.186*35.5}

m = 38.2 g

So, the mass of water in the kettle is 38.2 g.

Alex dragged a log across the yard in 30 the log weighted 400n she did 900 j of work how much power did I she have
In-s [12.5K]

The power used by Alex to drag the log across the yard is determined as 2,656 W.

<h3>Mass of the log</h3>

The mass of the log is calculated as follows;

W = mg

m = W/g

m = (400)/9.8

m = 40.82 kg

<h3>Velocity of the log</h3>

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

v² = 2K.E/m

v² = (2 x 900)/(40.82)

v² = 44.096

v = 6.64 m/s

<h3>Power used by Alex</h3>

P = Fv

P = 400 x 6.64

P = 2,656 W

If 1.00 mol of an ideal monatomic gas initially at 74 K absorbs 100 J of thermal energy, what is the final temperature
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

T = 82 K

Explanation:

The computation of the final temperature is shown below;

Given that

T_0 denotes the initial temperature of the gas i.e. 74 K

T denotes the final temperature of the gas = ?

n denotes number of moles of monoatomic gas i.e. 1.00 mol

R denotes universal gas constant = 8.314

c denotes the heat capacity at constant volume i.e.

= (1.5) R = (1.5) (8.314)

= 12.5

Q denotes the Amount of heat absorbed i.e 100 J

We know that

Amount of heat absorbed is provided as

Q = n c (T - T_0)

100 = (1) (12.5) (T - 74)

T = 82 K

A gaseous hydrocarbon contains 80% carbon and 20% hydrogen, 1dm3 of the compound at s.t.p weighs 1.35g find the molecular formul
Cloud [144]

Answer:

C₂H₆

Explanation:

To obtain molecular formula of the gas, you need to find first its molecular mass.

To find molecular mass you need to obtain moles of gasbecause molecular mass is the ratio between mass of the gas and the volume it occupies.

As at STP, 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4dm³, 1dm³ of gas are:

1dm³ × (1mol / 22.4dm³) = 004464moles.

Its molecular mass is:

1.35g / 004464moles =

30.24g/mol

Now, if the gas is 80%C and 20%H, its <em>empirical formula (Simplest ratio of atoms in a molecule) </em>is:

80% Carbon × (1mol / 12.01g) = 6.66moles C

20% Hydrogen × (1mol / 1.01g) = 19.8moles H

Ratio of H:C is:

19.8 mol H / 6.66mol C = 3

Thus, you can know you will have 3 moles of Hydrogen per mole of Carbon, CH₃ (It weighs 15.04g/mol)

As the gas weighs 30.24 ≈ 2 CH₃

The molecular formula is:

<h3>C₂H₆</h3>
