Answer:

X = 5

Explanation:

Total mass here is 1.5g. Now after heating we have a mass of 0.957g Cu. This means heating had caused a loss of 1.5 - 0.957 = 0.543g of water.

Now, we will try to convert this into moles. This can be done by dividing the respective masses by the molar masses. While the mass of water is 18g/mol, the molar mass of CuSO4 is 160g/mol.

The division of the respective masses by the molar masses is thus:

CuSO4 = 0.957/160 = 0.006 moles

H2O = 0.543/18 = 0.03 moles

The ratios of the moles is thus: 0.03/0.006 = 5

Hence, the number of molecules of water of crystallization is 5

This means x = 5

A 0.1326 g sample of magnesium was burned in an oxygen bomb calorimeter. the total heat capacity of the calorimeter plus water w
Sladkaya [172]

Answer: Th enthalpy of combustion for the given reaction is 594.244 kJ/mol

Explanation: Enthalpy of combustion is defined as the decomposition of a substance in the presence of oxygen gas.

W are given a chemical reaction:

Mg(s)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)\rightarrow MgO(s)

c=5760J/^oC

\Delta T=0.570^oC

To calculate the enthalpy change, we use the formula:

\Delta H=c\Delta T\\\\\Delta H=5760J/^oC\times 0.570^oC=3283.2J

This is the amount of energy released when 0.1326 grams of sample was burned.

So, energy released when 1 gram of sample was burned is = \frac{3283.2J}{0.1326g}=24760.181J/g

Energy 1 mole of magnesium is being combusted, so to calculate the energy released when 1 mole of magnesium ( that is 24 g/mol of magnesium) is being combusted will be:

\Delta H=24760.181J/g\times 24g/mol\\\\\Delta H=594244.3J/mol\\\\\Delta H=594.244kJ/mol

To plot the calibration curve, you need to prepare iron solutions with known concentrations and measure their absorbance.
kap26 [50]

To plot the calibration curve, you need to prepare iron solutions with known concentrations and measure their absorbance. You need to pipet 0 mL of the diluted solution to have 0.00 mg of iron.

In spectrophotometry, to plot the calibration curve, you need to prepare solutions with known concentrations and measure their absorbance.

We have a standard iron solution with a concentration of 0.2500g/L of pure iron (C₁). We pipet 25.00mL (V₁) of this standard iron solution into a 500mL (V₂) volumetric flask and dilute up to the mark with distilled water.

We can calculate the concentration of the diluted solution (C₂) using the dilution rule.

C_1 \times V_1 = C_2 \times V_2\\\\C_2 = \frac{C_1 \times V_1}{V_2}  = \frac{0.2500 g/L \times 25.00 mL}{500 mL} = 0.0125 g/L

Then, if we wanted to prepare the blank, that is, the solution that contains the same matrix but not the analyte, and whose concentration in iron is 0.00 mg/L, we wouldn't pipet any of the diluted solution.

To plot the calibration curve, you need to prepare iron solutions with known concentrations and measure their absorbance. You need to pipet 0 mL of the diluted solution to have 0.00 mg of iron.
