Answer:

The specific heat of the aluminium can is 0.89 J/g°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the aluminium can = 10.0 grams

The amount of energy absorbed = 106.8 J

The temperature rises 12.0 °C

Step 2: Calculate the specific heat of the aluminium can

Q = m*c* ΔT

⇒with Q = the heat absorbed = 106.8 J

⇒with m = the mass of the aluminium can = 10.0 grams

⇒with c = the specific heat of the aluminium can = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with ΔT = the rise of the temperature = 1.0°C

106.8 J = 10.0 grams * C * 12.0 °C

C = 106.8 J / (10.0 grams * 12.0 °C)

C = 0.89 J/g°C

The specific heat of the aluminium can is 0.89 J/g°C

Answer:

THE SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY OF THE ALUMINIUM CAN IS 0.03747 J/g K

Explanation:

Heat liberated (Q) = MCΔT

Heat = 106.8 J

M = mass = 10 g

ΔT = 12°C= 12 + 273 K = 285 K

C = specific heat capacity = unknown

At a rise in 12 °C temperature, the aluminium can possesses a specific heat capacity of =

C = Q / MΔT

C = 106.8 J / 10 g * 285 K

C = 106.8 J / 2850 g K

C = 0.03747 J/g K

The specific heat capacity of the aluminum can weighing 10 g and absorbs 106.8 J of heat after been warmed to 12°C is 0.03747 J/ g K

Hydrogen cyanide, HCN, is prepared from ammonia, air, and natural gas (CH₄), by the following process:
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

6.75 g of HCN can be produced by the reaction

Explanation:

Complete reaction is:

2NH₃ (g) + 3O₂ (g) + 2CH₄ (g) → 2HCN (g) + 6H₂O (g)

Let's determine the moles of each reactant:

11.5 g . 1mol / 17g = 0.676 moles of ammonia

12 g . 1 mol / 32g = 0.375 moles of oxygen

10.5 g . 1mol/ 16 g =  0.656 moles of methane

Now is all about rules of three:

2 moles of ammonia reacts with 3 moles of O₂ and 2 moles of methane

0.676 moles of NH₃ may react with:

(0.676 . 3) /2 = 1.014 moles of O₂

(0.676 . 2) / 2 = 0.676 moles of methane

Both can be the limiting reactant.

3 moles of O₂ react with 2 moles of NH₃ and 2 moles of methane

0.375 moles of O₂ will react with:

(0.375 .2) / 3  = 0.375 moles

The same amount for methane, 0.375 moles

2 moles of CH₄ reacts with 3 moles of O₂ and 2 moles of NH₃

0.656 moles of methane would react with 0.656 moles of NH₃

(0.656 . 3 ) /2 = 0.437 moles of O₂   I do not have enough O₂

Oxygen is the limiting reactant → We can work with the reaction now.

Ratio is 3:2. 3 moles of oxygen produce 2 moles of cyanide

0.375 moles of O₂ may produce (0.375 .2 ) / 3 = 0.250 moles

If we convert the moles to mass → 0.250 mol . 27 g / 1mol = 6.75 g

9. A tank truck carries 34 000 L of sulfuric acid. The density
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

<h2>62,560 kg</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

mass = Density × volume

From the question

volume = 34,000 L

density = 1.84 kg/L

We have

mass = 1.84 × 34,000 = 62,560

We have the final answer as

<h3>62,560 kg</h3>
