A chemist mixes 75.0 g of an unknown substance at 96.5°C with 1,150 g of water at 25.0°C. If the final temperature of the system

is 37.1°C, what is the specific heat capacity of the substance? Use 4.184 J / g °C for the specific heat capacity of water.

To do this problem it is necessary to take into account that the heat given by the unknown substance is equal to the heat absorbed by the water, but considering the correct sign:

-m\cdot c_e\cdot \Delta T = m_w\cdot c_e_w\cdot \Delta T_w

Clearing the specific heat of the unknown substance:

c_e = \frac{m_w\cdot c_e_w\cdot \Delta T_w}{m\cdot \Delta T} = -\frac{1\ 150\ g\cdot 4.184\frac{J}{g\cdot ^\circ C}\cdot (37.1 - 25.0)^\circ C}{75\ g\cdot (37.1 - 96.5)^\circ C}

c_e = -\frac{1\ 150\ g\cdot 4.184\frac{J}{g\cdot ^\circ C}\cdot 12.1^\circ C}{75\ g\cdot (-59.4)^\circ C} = \bf 13.07\frac{J}{g\cdot ^\circ C}

How many molecules are in 42.3g sample of water
Helga [31]

Answer:

The number of molecules is 1.4140*10^24 molecules

Explanation:

To know the number of molecules, we need to determine how many moles of water we have, water has molar mass of 18.015g/mol

This means that one mole of water molecules has a mass of 18.015g.

42.3g * 1 mole H2O/18.015g

= 2.3480 moles H2O

We are using avogadros number to find the number of molecules of water

2.3480 H2O * 6.022*10^ 23moles/ 1mole of H2O

That's 2.3480 multiplied by 6.022*10^23 divided by 1 mole of H2O

Number of molecules = 1.4140 *10^24 molecules

Answer: The ratio of carbon to bromine atoms  in the molecule is 3:1

Explanation:

Compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass. It can be decomposed into simpler constituents using chemical reactions.

Chemical formula shows the elements in a compound and the relative proportions of those elements.

The chemical formula given for the compound is C_3H_6BrCl which means the ratio of carbon to bromine atoms is 3: 1.

Thus the ratio of carbon to bromine atoms  in the molecule is 3:1
