When 18.9 kJ is transferred to a gas sample in a constant volume adiabatic container with a calorimeter constant of 2.22 Kj/K, t
poizon [28]

Answer:

(a) Cgas = 0.125 kJ/k

(b) cgas = 0.25kJ/kg.K

(c) cm(gas) = 0.021kJ/mol.K

Explanation:

18.9 kJ is equal to the sum of the heat absorbed by the gas and the heat absorbed by the calorimeter.

Qcal + Qgas = 18.9 kJ  [1]

We can calculate the heat absorbed using the following expression.

Q = C . ΔT

where,

C is the heat capacity

ΔT is the change in the temperature

<em>(a) What is the heat capacity of the sample?</em>

From [1],

Ccal . ΔT + Cgas . ΔT = 18.9 kJ

(2.22kJ/K) × 8.06 K + Cgas × 8.06 K = 18.9 kJ

Cgas = 0.125 kJ/k

<em>(b) If the sample has a mass of 0.5 kilograms, what is the specific heat capacity of the substance?</em>

We can calculate the specific heat capacity (c) using the following expression:

c=\frac{C}{m} =\frac{0.125kJ/K}{0.5kg} =0.25kJ/kg.K

<em>(c) If the sample is Krypton, what is the molar heat capacity at constant volume of Krypton? The molar mass of Krypton is 83.8 grams/mole.</em>

The molar heat capacity is:

\frac{0.25kJ}{kg.K} .\frac{1kg}{1000g} .\frac{83.8g}{mol} =0.021kJ/mol.K

What is the change in internal energy for each of the following situations? 1. q-7.9 J out of the system and w 3.6 J done on the
adoni [48]

Answer:

A i. Internal energy ΔU = -4.3 J ii. Internal energy ΔU = -6.0 J B. The second system is lower in energy.

Explanation:

A. We know that the internal energy,ΔU = q + w where q = quantity of heat and w = work done on system.

1. In the above q = -7.9 J (the negative indicating heat loss by the system). w = 3.6 J (It is positive because work is done on the system). So, the internal energy for this system is ΔU₁ = q + w = -7.9J + 3.6J = -4.3 J

ii. From the question q = +1.5 J (the positive indicating heat into the system). w = -7.5 J (It is negative because work is done by the system). So, the internal energy for this system is ΔU₂ = q + w = +1.5J + (-7.5J) = +1.5J - 7.5J = - 6.0J

B. We know that ΔU = U₂ - U₁ where U₁ and U₂ are the initial and final internal energies of the system. Since for the systems above, the initial internal energies U₁ are the same, then we say U₁ = U. Let U₁ and U₂ now represent the final energies of both systems in A i and A ii above. So, we write ΔU₁ = U₁ - U and ΔU₂ = U₂ - U where ΔU₁ and ΔU₂ are the internal energy changes in A i and A ii respectively. Now from ΔU₁ = U₁ - U, U₁ = ΔU₁ + U and U₂ = ΔU₂ + U. Subtracting both equations U₁ - U₂ = ΔU₁ - ΔU₂

= -4.3J -(-6.0 J)= 1.7 J. Since U₁ - U₂ > 0 , U₂ < U₁ , so the second system's internal energy increase less and is lower in energy and is more stable.

A student finds two unlabeled flasks of clear liquids. One is believed to be 0.1 m nacl and the other to be 0.1 m naclo3. What i
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

  • Add AgNO₃ solution to both unlabeled flasks: based on solubility rules, you can predict that when you add AgNO₃ to the NaCl solution, you will obtain AgCl precipitate, while no precipitate will be formed from the NaClO₃ solution.

Explanation:

<u>1. Adding AgNO₃ to NaCl solution:</u>

  • AgNO₃ (aq) + NaCl (aq) → AgCl (s) + NaNO₃ (aq)

<u>2. Adding AgNO₃ to NaClO₃ solution</u>

  • AgNO₃ (aq) + NaClO₃ (aq) → AgClO₃ (aq) + NaNO₃ (aq)

<u />

<u>3. Relevant solubility rules for the problem.</u>

  • Although most salts containing Cl⁻ are soluble, AgCl is a remarkable exception and is insoluble.

  • All chlorates are soluble, so AgClO₃ is soluble.

  • Salts containing nitrate ion (NO₃⁻) are generally soluble and NaNO₃ is not an exception to this rule. In fact, NaNO₃ is very well known to be soluble.

Hence, when you add AgNO₃ to the NaCl solution the AgCl formed will precipitate, and when you add the same salt (AgNO₃) to the AgClO₃ solution both formed salts AgClO₃ and NaNO₃ are soluble.

Then, the precipiate will permit to conclude which flask contains AgCl.
