How much heat is lost when 0.440 mol of steam condenses at 100 °C?
1 answer:
Answer:
17,890 J
Explanation:
The amount of heat released by a gaseous substance when it condenses is given by the formula
where
n is the number of moles of the substance
is the latent heat of vaporization
The formula can be applied if the substance is at its vaporization temperature.
In this problem, we have:
n = 0.440 mol is the number of moles of steam
is the latent heat of vaporization of water
And the steam is already at 100C, so we can apply the formula:

1.181 × 10²⁴ molecules CO₂
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>
- Reading a Periodic Table
- Using Dimensional Analysis
- Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
86.34 g CO₂
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversion</u>
Avogadro's Number
Molar Mass of C - 12.01 g/mol
Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol
Molar Mass of CO₂ - 12.01 + 2(16.00) = 44.01 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Convert</u>
<u /> = 1.18141 × 10²⁴ molecules CO₂
<u>Step 4: Check</u>
