Complete Question
A sample of aluminum, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.897 JB loc ! is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) that contains 200.0 g of water. The aluminum sample starts off at 85.6 °C and the temperature of the water starts off at 16.0 °C. When the temperature of the water stops changing it's 20.1 °C. The pressure remains constant at 1 atm. Calculate the mass of the aluminum sample.
Answer:
Explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Heat Capacity
Mass of water
Initial Temperature of Aluminium
Initial Temperature of Water
Final Temperature of Water
Generally
Heat loss=Heat Gain
Therefore
First, we need to get the molar mass of:
KClO3 = 39.1 + 35.5 + 3*16 = 122.6 g/mol
KCl =39.1 + 35.5 = 74.6 g/mol
O2 = 16*2 = 32 g/mol
From the given equation we can see that:
every 2 moles of KClO3 gives 3 moles of O2
when mass = moles * molar mass
∴ the mass of KClO3 = (2mol of KClO3*122.6g/mol) = 245.2 g
and the mass of O2 then = 3 mol * 32g/mol = 96 g
so, 245.2 g of KClO3 gives 96 g of O2
A) 2.72 g of KClO3:
when 245.2 KClO3 gives → 96 g O2
2.72 g KClO3 gives → X
X = 2.72 g KClO3 * 96 g O2/245.2 KClO3
= 1.06 g of O2
B) 0.361 g KClO3:
when 245.2 g KClO3 gives → 96 g O2
0.361 g KClO3 gives → X
∴ X = 0.361g KClO3 * 96 g / 245.2 g
= 0.141 g of O2
C) 83.6 Kg KClO3:
when 245.2 g KClO3 gives → 96 g O2
83.6 Kg KClO3 gives → X
∴X = 83.6 Kg* 96 g O2 /245.2 g KClO3
= 32.7 Kg of O2
D) 22.4 mg of KClO3:
when 245.2 g KClO3 gives → 96 g O2
22.4 mg KClO3 gives → X
∴X = 22.4 mg * 96 g O2 / 245.2 g KClO3
= 8.8 mg of O2
Answer: If a mineral contains only atoms of oxygen and metal, it is most likely an oxide mineral.
Explanation:
First, find moles of gold given the mass of the sample:
(35.9g Au)/(197.0g/mol Au) = 0.182mol Au
Second, multiply moles of Au by Avogrado's number:
(0.182mol)(6.02 x10^23)= 1.10x10^23 atoms Au
