5. A student is trying to identify a metal unknown. The student performs a calorimetry experiment similar to this week’s lab. Th

e metal was heated to 115.0°C and placed in a calorimeter where it cooled to 32.6°C. The amount of heat released by 25.0g of the metal was 63.5 cal Calculate the specific heat of the metal and determine its identity by looking at the specific heat values in page 239 of your textbook. (Keep track of units!).

Answer:

This metal could be lead

Specific heat = 0.0308 cal/g°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The metal was heated to 115.0°C

in a calorimeter where it cooled to 32.6°C.

Mass of the metal = 25.0 grams

Heat released = 63.5 cal

Step 2: Calculate the specific heat of the metal

Q = m*c*ΔT

⇒with Q = the heat released = 63.5 cal

⇒with m = the mass of the metal = 25.0 grams

⇒with ΔT = the change of temperature = T2 - T1 = 32.6 °C - 115.0°C = -82.4 °C

⇒ c = the specific heat = TO BE DETERMINED

63.5 = 25.0 * c * 82.4

C = 0.0308 cal/g°C

This metal could be lead

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Upon arrival we needed to hunt in this new land we only had five refills and they needed 50 g of gunpowder to be shot once. We only have 15 pounds of gunpowder. It is taking six shots to kill one of these wild turkeys. How many turkeys can be shot with 15 pounds of gunpowder?

If we had plenty of refills, and it takes 6 shots to kill a wild turkey at 50 gms of gunpowder per shot, then each turkey requires 6X50 =300gms of gunpowder.  We have 15X454 gms of gunpowder and have the potential to kill 15X454/300=22.7 or 22 turkeys.and it takes 6 shots to kill a wild turkey.

The limiting reagent is the number of refills, and withonly 5, we are out of luck and can't kill one turkey
