Answer:

Specific heat capacity of aluminium is 0,863 J/g°C

Explanation:

<em>Values: 250g of water, aluminum sample starts off at 91.3°C, water starts off at 16.0°C, temperature of the water stops changing it's 19.5°C</em>

In this problem, the heat produced for the aluminium is the same consumed by water. The heat consumed by water is:

Q = C×m×ΔT <em>(1)</em>

Where C is specific heat of water (4,184J/g°C), m is mass of water (250,0g) and ΔT is change in temperature of water (19,5°C-16,0°C = 3,5°C)

Replacing:

Q = 4,184J/g°C×250,0g×3,5°C

<em><u>Q = 3661 J</u></em>

Using (1), it is possible to obtain specific heat of aluminium, thus:

Q / (m×ΔT) = C

Where Q is heat (3661J), m is mass (59,1g) and ΔT is change in temperature (91,3°C - 19,5°C( = 71,8°C

Replacing:

3661J / (59,1g×71,8°C) = C

<em>C = 0,863 J/g°C</em>

I hope it helps!

en un recipiente se tiene 800 g de una solución al 35% en masa de ácido sulfuroso, de la cual se evapora 80ml de agua. ¿cuál es
Alinara [238K]

The mass percent of sulfurous acid in the new solution : 38.9%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<em>In a container you have 800 g of a 35% by mass solution of sulfurous acid, from which 80 ml of water evaporates. What is the mass percent of sulfurous acid in the new solution? data: density of water is 1g / ml.</em>

<em />

solution 1

composition :

  • 35% acid :

\tt 0.35\times 800~g=280~g

  • water :

\tt 800-280=520~g

solution 2(new solution)

composition :

  • water

\tt 520-(80~ml\times 1~g/ml)=440~g

  • Total mass of new solution after water evaporated

\tt 280(acid)+440(water)=720~g

  • %mass of acid in a new solution

\tt \dfrac{280}{720}\times 100\%=38.9\%
