A chemical engineer studying the properties of fuels placed 1.670 g of a hydrocarbon in the bomb of a calorimeter and filled it

with O2 gas. The bomb was immersed in 2.550 L of water and the reaction initiated. The water temperature rose from 20.00°C to 23.55°C. If the calorimeter (excluding the water) had a heat capacity of 403 J/K, what was the heat of reaction for combustion (qV) per gram of the fuel?

Answer:

856,68 J/gram

Explanation:

We know that the variaton of temperature of 1K is equal to 1°C

so if the ΔT is 3.55°C, it is 3.55K.

so

403 J - 1 K

x - 3.55K

X= 403 * 3.55 = 1430,65 J

1.670 g - 1430,65 J

1 g - y

y = \frac{1430,65}{1.670} = 856,68 J

1. How many moles of oxygen gas are needed to form 21.8 liters of water vapor?
BaLLatris [955]

0.781 moles

Explanation:

We begin by balancing the chemical equation;

O₂ (g) + 2H₂ (g) → 2H₂O (g)

21.8 Liters = 21.8 Kgs

To find how many moles are in 28.1 Kg H₂O;

Molar mass of H₂O = 18 g/mol

28.1/18

= 1.56 moles

The mole ratio between water vapor and oxygen is;

1 : 2

x : 1.56

2x = 1.56

x = 1.56 / 2

x =  0.781

0.781 moles

How many grams of CO are needed to react with an excess of Fe 2 O 3 to produce 209.7 g Fe?
gavmur [86]

Answer:

Mass = 157.5 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CO needed  = ?

Mass of Fe formed = 209.7 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3CO + F₂O₃   →       2Fe + 3CO₂

Number of moles of Fe:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 209.7 g/ 55.85 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.75 mol

Now we will compare the moles of iron and carbon monoxide.

                               Fe            :              CO

                                 2            :              3

                                3.75         ;             3/2×3.75 = 5.625 mol

Mass of CO:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 5.625 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 157.5 g

How does an indicator differentiate between an acid and base?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

that is all I know sorry hope that may help you :)

Explanation:

Indicator is a substance which shows different colors in acidic and basic medium. Indicators can be natural (derived from natural sources) or artificial ( man-made) for example :

*Litmus is an indicator. Acid turns blue litmus into red while base turns red litmus into blue

* Turmeric solution does not show change in color (remains yellow) in acidic solution and turns red in basic solution.

What is the percentage strength (w/w) of a solution made by dissolving 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 ml of water?
kiruha [24]

Percent strength (% w/w) of a solution is defined as the amount of solute present in 100 g of the solution.

Given data:

Mass of the solute, potassium chloride = 62.5 g

Volume of water (solution) = 187.5 ml

We know that the density of water = 1 g/ml

Therefore, the mass corresponding to the given volume of water

= 187.5 ml * 1 g/1 ml = 187.5 g

We have a solution of 62.5 g of potassium chloride in 187.5 g water

Therefore, amount of solute in 100 g of water= 62.5 * 100/187.5 = 33.33

The percentage strength = 33.33 %
