Energy= 2381 joules
heat= Mass(kg) *change in temperature(K) * Cp
2381=0.155*(15)*Cp
Cp=1024 J/kg K
Answer:
Divide the mass of your anhydrous (heated) salt sample by the molar mass of the anhydrous compound to get the number of moles of compound present. In our example, 16 grams / 160 grams per mole = 0.1 moles. Divide the mass of water lost when you heated the salt by the molar mass of water, roughly 18 grams per mole.In order to determine the formula of the hydrate, [Anhydrous Solid⋅xH2O], the number of moles of water per mole of anhydrous solid (x) will be calculated by dividing the number of moles of water by the number of moles of the anhydrous solid (Equation 2.12. 6).
I believe that it most likely would be D.
1) Chemical equation
<span>2NH4Cl(s)+Ba(OH)2⋅8H2O(s)→2NH3(aq)+BaCl2(aq)+10H2O(l)
2) Stoichiometric ratios
2 mol NH4Cl(s) : 54.8 KJ
3) Convert 24.7 g of NH4Cl into number of moles, using the molar mass
molar mass of NH4Cl = 14 g/mol + 4*1 g/mol + 35.5 g/mol = 53.5 g/mol
number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
number of moles = 24.7 g / 53.5 g/mol = 0.462 moles
4) Use proportions:
2 moles NH4Cl / 54.8 kJ = 0.462 moles / x
=> x = 0.462 moles * 54.8 kJ / 2 moles = 12.7 kJ
Answer: 12.7 kJ
