To begin the experiment, 1.5g of methane CH4 is burned in a bomb calorimeter containing 1,000 grams of water. The initial temper

ature of water is 25°C. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g°C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 695 J/°C . After the reaction the final temperature of the water is 37°C.
1. Using the formula q =m• C• ΔT ,calculate the heat absorbed by the water. Show work.

2. The total heat absorbed by the water and the calorimeter can be calculated by adding the heat calculated in steps 3 and 4. The amount of heat released by the reaction is equal to the amount of heat absorbed with the negative sign as this is an exothermic reaction. Using the formula ∆H = -(qcal + qwater), calculate the total heat of combustion. Show work.

3. Calculate the experimental molar heat of combustion in kJ/mol? Show work.

4. Given the formula: % error = ((accepted value-experimental value)/accepted value) * 100, calculate the percent error for the experiment. Show work

Mass of methane takne = 1.5g

moles of methane used = masss / molar mass = 1.5 / 16 = 0.094 moles


mass of water = 1000 g

Initial temperature of water = 25 C

final temperature = 37 C

specific heat of water = 4.184 J /g C

1) Heat absorbed by water = q =m• C• ΔT = 1000 X 4.184 x (37-25) =  50208 Joules

2) Heat absorbed by calorimeter = Heat capacity X ΔT = 695 X (37-25) = 8340 J

3) Total heat of combustion = heat absorbed by water + calorimeter = 50208 + 8340 = 58548 Joules

This heat is released by 0.094 moles of methane

So heat released by one mole of methane =

                            - 622851.06 Joules = 622.85 kJ / mole

4) standard enthalpy of combustion = -882 kJ / mole

Error = (882-622.85) X 100 / 882 = 24.84 %

How many oxygen (O) atoms are involved in this chemical reaction?<br><br> 2Fe(OH)3 — Fe2O3 + 3H20
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

6 oxygen atoms

Explanation:

From the equation,

2Fe(OH)₃ → Fe₂O₃ + 3H₂O

From the reactant (left hand side) we have 2 moles of Fe(OH)₃ having (2 * 3 = 6) atoms of oxygen and decomposed to give Fe₂O₃ which contains 3 atoms of oxygen and 3 moles of water that also contains 3 atoms of oxygen.

Since the number of oxygen participating in the reaction is independent on the product (not a reversible reaction) then the total number of oxygen atoms participating in the reaction is 6

Through which conversion is energy released? adp to atp atp to adp nadp to nadph co2 and h2o to c6h12o6 and o2
aleksandrvk [35]
  • Energy transformation includes ATP and ADP. at the point when energy is delivered, the response will in general separate a bigger particle to a more modest structure.
  • For this situation, the bigger particle is ATP comprised of three phosphates bunches while ADP is just made out of two phosphate gatherings.
<h3>What is the energy source for the conversion of ADP and ATP?</h3>
  • The energy expected for the change of ADP into ATP is acquired from light during photosynthesis and from exothermic responses during cell breath in the two plants and creatures.
  • ADP is produced on hydrolysis of ATP and the energy released in the process is utilised to carry out various cellular processes.

Predict the products that will be formed by the reaction below. Al(s)+Na2SO4(s)—&gt;
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Al₂(SO₄)₃ and Na

Explanation:

Al has a charge of +3, Na has a charge of +1 and SO₄ has a charge of -2. Since cations and anions will bond we know that Al will bond with SO₄ leaving Na by itself (since this is a single replacement reaction). When Al bonds with SO₄ it makes aluminum sulfate which is Al₂(SO₄)₃ and Na will be left by itself.
