Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A. Group C: 32.1 g, 35.0 g, 25.0 g

B. Group B: 25.5 g, 25.0 g, 24.8 g

C. Group A: 28.5g, 28.4 g, 28.5 g

D. Group D: 20.0 g, 25.0 g, 30.09

The answer is C. GROUP A

Explanation:

Precision in measurements refers to the degree of closeness between the repeated or measured values irrespective of how close they are to the true or accepted value, which is 25g in this case.

The precision of a measurement can be determined by simply finding the range (highest - lowest) of the measurements. The lowest range represents the most precise. The measurements for each group are:

Group C: 32.1 g, 35.0 g, 25.0 g

Range = 35.0 - 25.0 = 10g

Group B: 25.5 g, 25.0 g, 24.8 g

Range = 25.5 - 24.8 = 0.7g

Group A: 28.5g, 28.4 g, 28.5 g

Range: 28.5 - 28.4 = 0.1g

Group D: 20.0 g, 25.0 g, 30.09

Range = 30.09 - 25.0= 5.09g

Based on the ranges of the measurements in each group, one would notice that Group A has the lowest range (0.1g), hence, GROUP A is the most precise.

When 18.9 kJ is transferred to a gas sample in a constant volume adiabatic container with a calorimeter constant of 2.22 Kj/K, t
poizon [28]

Answer:

(a) Cgas = 0.125 kJ/k

(b) cgas = 0.25kJ/kg.K

(c) cm(gas) = 0.021kJ/mol.K

Explanation:

18.9 kJ is equal to the sum of the heat absorbed by the gas and the heat absorbed by the calorimeter.

Qcal + Qgas = 18.9 kJ  [1]

We can calculate the heat absorbed using the following expression.

Q = C . ΔT

where,

C is the heat capacity

ΔT is the change in the temperature

<em>(a) What is the heat capacity of the sample?</em>

From [1],

Ccal . ΔT + Cgas . ΔT = 18.9 kJ

(2.22kJ/K) × 8.06 K + Cgas × 8.06 K = 18.9 kJ

Cgas = 0.125 kJ/k

<em>(b) If the sample has a mass of 0.5 kilograms, what is the specific heat capacity of the substance?</em>

We can calculate the specific heat capacity (c) using the following expression:

c=\frac{C}{m} =\frac{0.125kJ/K}{0.5kg} =0.25kJ/kg.K

<em>(c) If the sample is Krypton, what is the molar heat capacity at constant volume of Krypton? The molar mass of Krypton is 83.8 grams/mole.</em>

The molar heat capacity is:

\frac{0.25kJ}{kg.K} .\frac{1kg}{1000g} .\frac{83.8g}{mol} =0.021kJ/mol.K

Outline the steps needed to determine the limiting reactant when 30.0 g of propane, C3H8, is burned with 75.0 g of oxygen.
kumpel [21]

Answer : The limiting reactant is O_2

Explanation : Given,

Mass of C_3H_8 = 30.0 g

Mass of O_2 = 75.0 g

Molar mass of C_3H_8 = 44 g/mole

Molar mass of O_2 = 32 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of C_3H_8 and O_2.

\text{ Moles of }C_3H_8=\frac{\text{ Mass of }C_3H_8}{\text{ Molar mass of }C_3H_8}=\frac{30.0g}{44g/mole}=0.682moles

\text{ Moles of }O_2=\frac{\text{ Mass of }O_2}{\text{ Molar mass of }O_2}=\frac{75.0g}{32g/mole}=2.34moles

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

C_3H_8+5O_2\rightarrow 3CO_2+4H_2O

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 5 mole of O_2 react with 1 mole of C_3H_8

So, 2.34 moles of O_2 react with \frac{2.34}{5}\times 1=0.468 moles of C_3H_8

From this we conclude that, C_3H_8 is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and O_2 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Therefore, the limiting reactant is O_2

The rate of formation of C in the reaction 2 A + B →2 C + 3 D is 2.7 mol dm−3 s −1 . State the reaction rate, and the rates of f
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

Rate of reaction =1.35mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1}

Rate of consumption of A = 2.7mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1}

Rate of consumption of B = 1.35mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1}

Rate of formation of D = 4.15mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1}

Explanation:

According to laws of mass action for the given reaction,

Rate= -\frac{1}{2}\frac{\Delta [A]}{\Delta t}=-\frac{\Delta [B]}{\Delta t}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{\Delta [C]}{\Delta t}=\frac{1}{3}\frac{\Delta [D]}{\Delta t}

where, -\frac{\Delta [A]}{\Delta t} is rate of consumption of A, -\frac{\Delta [B]}{\Delta t} is rate of consumption of B, \frac{\Delta [C]}{\Delta t} is rate of formation of C and \frac{\Delta [D]}{\Delta t} is rate of formation of D

Here \frac{\Delta [C]}{\Delta t}=2.7mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1}

So, Rate of reaction = (\frac{1}{2}\times 2.7mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1})=1.35mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1}

Rate of formation of D = (\frac{3}{2}\times \frac{\Delta [C]}{\Delta t})=(\frac{3}{2}\times 2.7mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1})=4.15mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1}

Rate of consumption of A = (\frac{2}{2}\times \frac{\Delta [C]}{\Delta t})=(\frac{2}{2}\times 2.7mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1})=2.7mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1}

Rate of consumption of B = (\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{\Delta [C]}{\Delta t})=(\frac{1}{2}\times 2.7mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1})=1.35mol.dm^{-3}.s^{-1}
