How much energy in joules is released when 18.5 grams of copper cools from 285 °C down to 45 °C

Answer: 1709.4 Joules

Explanation:

The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) released on cooling a heated substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)

Thus, Q = MCΦ

Since Q = ?

M = 18.5 grams

Recall that the specific heat capacity of copper C = 0.385 J/g.C

Φ = 285°C - 45°C = 240°C

Then, Q = MCΦ

Q = 18.5grams x 0.385 J/g.C x 240°C

Q = 1709.4 Joules

Thus, 1709.4 Joules is released when copper is cooled.

A 720. cm^3 vessel contains a mixture of Ar and Xe. If the mass of the gas mixture is 2.966 g at 25.0°C and the pressure is 760.
sleet_krkn [62]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

      Pressure (P) = 760 torr = 1 atm

      Volume (V) = 720 cm^{3} = 0.720 L

     Temperature (T) = 25^{o}C = (25 + 273) K = 298 K

Using ideal gas equation, we will calculate the number of moles as follows.

                                PV = nRT

   Total atoms present (n) = \frac{PV}{RT}

                                          = 1 \times \frac{0.720 L}{0.0821 \times 298}

                                           = 0.0294 mol

Let us assume that there are x mol of Ar and y mol of Xe.

Hence, total number of moles will be as follows.

               x + y = 0.0294

Also,      40x + 131y = 2.966

             x = 0.0097 mol

              y = (0.0294 - 0.0097)

                = 0.0197 mol

Therefore, mole fraction will be calculated as follows.

Mol fraction of Xe = \frac{y}{(x+y)}

                               = \frac{0.0197}{0.0294}

                              = 0.67

Therefore, the mole fraction of Xe is 0.67.
