Determine the specific heat of a 213.0 g piece of metal in J/g•°C if the temperature of the metal drops from 70.2 °C to 25.6 °C

when placed in a calorimeter with 250.0 mL of water at an initial temperature of 22.5 °C (specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g•K).

Answer:

0.3415 J/g °C

Explanation:

M1 = 213.0g

c1 = ?

T1 = 70.2°C

T3 = 25.6 °C

T2 = 22.5°C

C2 = 4.186 J/g°C

Vol. of water = 250mL = 250cm³

p (density of water ) = 1g/L

p = mass / volume

mass (m) = density (p) * volume (v)

m = 1 * 250 = 250g

Heat loss by metal = heat gain by water

Q1 = Q2

Mc∇T = Mc∇T

Mc (T1 - T3) = Mc* (T3 - T2)

213 * c * (70.2 - 25.6) = 250 * 4.186 * (25.6 - 22.5)

(213 * 44.6)c = 1046.5 * 3.1

9499c = 3244.15

c = 0.3415 J/g.°C

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.3415 J/g °C

What is the pH of a solution made by mixing 30.00 mL 0.10 M HCl with 40.00 mL of 0.10 M KOH? Assume that the volumes of the solu
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

pH = 12.15

Explanation:

To determine the pH of the HCl and KOH mixture, we need to know that the reaction is  a neutralization type.

HCl  +  KOH  →  H₂O  +  KCl

We need to determine the moles of each compound

M = mmol / V (mL) → 30 mL . 0.10 M = 3 mmoles of HCl

M = mmol / V (mL) → 40 mL . 0.10 M = 4 mmoles of KOH

The base is in excess, so the HCl will completely react and we would produce the same mmoles of KCl

HCl  +  KOH  →  H₂O  +  KCl

3 m       4 m                       -

             1 m                      3 m

As the KCl is a neutral salt, it does not have any effect on the pH, so the pH will be affected, by the strong base.

1 mmol of KOH has 1 mmol of OH⁻, so the [OH⁻] will be 1 mmol / Tot volume

[OH⁻] 1 mmol / 70 mL = 0.014285 M

- log [OH⁻] = 1.85 → pH = 14 - pOH → 14 - 1.85 = 12.15
