5.00 g of carbon were adiabatically burned to CO2 in a 2.00 kg copper calorimeter which contained 2.50 kg of water. The temperat

ure increased by 14.1 °C.
Specific heats: copper, 0.385 J K⁻¹ g⁻¹; water, 4.184 J K⁻¹ g⁻¹.

a) Determine the heat of combustion of carbon ignoring any heat absorbed by the calorimeter.
b) Now determine the heat of combustion considering the heat absorbed by the calorimeter.

Answer:

A. -163.96kJ

B. -158.34kJ

Explanation:

Heat of combustion is the heat released when an element with oxygen at stp.

Reaction for the combustion of carbon:

C(s) + O2(g) --> CO2(g)

Enthalpy heat of combustion, C (using Hess law) = -393.5 kJ/mol

m = 5g

Molecular weight = 12 g/mol

No of moles = mass/molecular weight

= 5/12

= 0.417mol

DH = -393.5 * 0.417

= -163.96 kJ

B. Heat absorbed by the calorimeter = heat evolve by combustion

= mCH2ODT + mCcDT

Where CH2O is the specific heat capacity of the water in the calorimeter

Cc is the specific heat capacity of copper calorimeter

= (2500*4.184*14.1) + (2000*0.385*14.1)

= -158343J

= -158.34kJ

Maple syrup has a density of 1.325 g/ml, and 100.00 g of maple syrup contains 67 mg of calcium in the form of ca2+ ions. what is
e-lub [12.9K]
Density of maple syrup = 1.325 g/ml
1000 ml contains 1325 g of maple syrup
In 100 g of maple syrup - 67 mg of Ca ions
Therefore in 1325 g of maple syrup - 67 mg /100g * 1325 g 
                                                        = 887.75 mg of Ca
this means in 1000 ml - 887.75 mg of Ca
molar mass of Ca - 40 g/mol
therefore number of moles in 1000 ml - 0.88775 g /40 g/mol
molarity of Ca - 0.022 mol/dm³

Which chemical has the least solubility at 80 c
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

But since the solubility product constant for each compound is provided, their relative solubility can be ranked from highest to lowest. Depending on the ranking above, it is evident that aluminum hydroxide Al(OH)3 A l ( O H ) 3 has the lowest solubility at 25 Celsius degreesAs temperature increases, its solubility increases as well. Notice, however, that it does not increase significantly. In fact, you can expect to be able to dissolve no more than 40 g of sodium chloride per 100 g of water at 80∘C

A 32.5 g iron rod, initially at 22.4 ∘C, is submerged into an unknown mass of water at 63.0 ∘C, in an insulated container. The f
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

m_{H_2O}=39.0g

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, is possible to infer that the thermal equilibrium is governed by the following relationship:

\Delta H_{iron}=-\Delta H_{H_2O}\\m_{iron}Cp_{iron}(T_{eq}-T_{iron})=-m_{H_2O}Cp_{H_2O}(T_{eq}-T_{H_2O})

Thus, both iron's and water's heat capacities are: 0.444 and 4.18 J/g°C respectively, so one solves for the mass of water as shown below:

m_{H_2O}=\frac{m_{iron}Cp_{iron}(T_{eq}-T_{iron})}{-Cp_{H_2O}(T_{eq}-T_{H_2O}} \\\\m_{H_2O}=\frac{32.5g*0.444\frac{J}{g^0C}*(59.7-22.4)^0C}{-4.18\frac{J}{g^0C}*(59.7-63.0)^0C} \\\\m_{H_2O}=39.0g

Best regards.

How’s it possible for liquid to boil at 25 C?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Well, not always. It depends on where you're doing the boiling. In fact, water will boil at about 202 degrees in Denver, due to the lower air pressure at such high elevations
