Answer:
B. The temperature of the water when the food sample has finished burning completely.
Explanation:
Heat or thermal energy is a form of energy that transfers from one object to another due to a temperature difference between the objects. The units for heat are joules or calories.
Calorimetry is the measurement of heat energy released or absorbed in a chemical reaction. A calorimeter is used in calorimetry. The calorimeter operates on the Law of Conservation of Energy which states that energy is never created or destroyed but is transformed from one form to another or between objects.
In food calorimetry, the energy released when food is burned is measured by recording the rise in temperature of water in a calorimeter when a given mass of a food sample is burned completely.
Energy can be calculated using the formula: Q = mc ∆T
where Q = the energy in joules or calories, m = the mass in grams, c = specific heat and ∆T = the change in temperature (final temperature - initial temperature).
The temperature of the water when the food sample has finished burning completely is taken as the final temperature of the water. The sample is allowed to smolder for sometime before recording the final water temperature. This is because the water temperature will continue to rise after the flame has gone out.
Answer:
28atm
Explanation:
Using Gay lussac's law equation as follows:
P1/T1 = P2/T2
Where;
P1 = initial pressure (atm)
T1 = initial temperature (K)
P2 = final pressure (atm)
T2 = final temperature (K)
Based on the information provided in this question;
P1 = 30.0 atm, T1 = 30.0°C, P2 = ?, T2 = 10.0°C
NOTE: Absolute temperature i.e. Kelvin is required for this law
T1 = 30°C + 273K = 303K
T2 = 10°C + 273K = 283K
Using P1/T1 = P2/T2
30/303 = P2/283
Cross multiply
P2 × 303 = 30 × 283
303P2 = 8490
P2 = 8490/303
P2 = 28.02
New pressure of the gas = 28atm
Answer:
(i) Oxidizing Agent: NO2 / Reducing Agent NH3-
(ii) Oxidizing Agent AgNO3 / Reducing Agent Zn
Explanation:
(i) 8NH3( g) + 6NO2( g) => 7N2( g) + 12H2O( l)
In this reaction, both two reactants contain nitrogen with a different oxidation number and produce only one product which contains nitrogen with a unique oxidation state. So, nitrogen is oxidized and reduced in the same reaction.
Nitrogen Undergoes a change in oxidation state from 4+ in NO2 to 0 in N2. It is reduced because it gains electrons (decrease its oxidation state). NO2 is the oxidizing agent (electron acceptor).
Nitrogen Changes from an oxidation state of 3- in NH3 to 0 in N2. It is oxidized because it loses electrons (increase its oxidation state). NH3 is the reducing agent (electron donor)
(ii) Zn(s) +AgNO3(aq) => Zn(NO3)2(aq) + Ag(s)
Ag changes oxidation state from 1+ to 0 in Ag(s).
Ag is reduced because it gains electrons and for this reason and AgNO3 is the oxidizing agent (electron acceptor)
Zn Changes from an oxidation state of 0 in Zn(s) to 2+ in Zn(NO3)2. It is oxidized and for this reason Zn is the reducing agent (electron donor).
Balanced equation:
Zn(s) +2AgNO3(aq) => Zn(NO3)2(aq) + 2Ag(s)
The chemical behavior of an atoms is determine by the formation or destruction of chemical bonds. The chemical bonds are the result of the interaction of the electrons of the atoms. Chemical properties of the atoms are given by how attached are the shell electrons attached to the nucleus and how they interact with other atoms. Chemical changes are the result of exchange valence electrons of the atoms. So, <span>the answer is the atomic particle that determines the chemical behavior of an atom is the electron, because it is the particle that is active in chemical bonding.</span>
