Answer:

In the chemical industry, lithium-based batteries are working most efficiently and replacing nickel-cadmium batteries. To study a redox reaction in a lithium battery let's take the example of Lithium Cobalt Oxide(LiCoO2).

Following is the overall reaction taking place in Lithium Cobalt Oxide battery. Reduction and oxidation takes place at Cathode and Anode respectively. that is why it is called a redox reaction.

Reaction at cathode:

Cathode: CoO2+Li+e−→ LiCoO2 (Reduction)

Reaction at Anode:

Anode: LiC6→ C6+Li++e− (Oxidation)

Overall reaction:

LiC6 + CoO2→ C6 + LiCoO2

A sample of copper absorbs 4.31E+1 kJ of heat, resulting in a temperature rise of 6.71E+1 °C. Determine the mass (in kg) of the

olga2289 [7]

Answer: 1.67 kg

Explanation:

The quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius is called the specific heat capacity.

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T$

Q = Heat absorbed= $4.31\times 10^1kJ$ = $43100J$ (1kJ=1000J)

m= mass of substance = ?

c = specific heat capacity = $0.385J/g^0C$

Change in temperature , $\Delta T=T_f-T_i=6.71\times 10^1^0C=67.1^0C$

Putting in the values, we get:

$43100J=m\times 0.385J/g^0C\times 67.1^0C$

$m=1670g=1.67kg$ (1kg=1000g)

Thus the mass (in kg) of the copper sample is 1.67
