Name 2 separate problems that occur when a sample for infrared analysis is contaminated with water.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Andreyy893 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

  • The water molecules gets trapped in the crystal structure to be analysed and will give a peak in the spectra at about 3500 /cm , and there by hindering with the IR spectra of the sample to be analysed .
  • The second problem with the contamination of the sample with water is , that water makes the potassium bromide disc opaque which will decrease the absorption of the IR by the sample .

Answer:  

1) Endothermic.  

2) Q_{rxn}=4435.04J  

3) \Delta _rH=15.8kJ/mol

Explanation:  

Hello there!  

1) In this case, for these calorimetry problems, we can realize that since the temperature decreases the reaction is endothermic because it is absorbing heat from the solution, that is why the temperature goes from 22.00 °C to 16.0°C.  

2) Now, for the total heat released by the reaction, we first need to assume that all of it is released by the solution since it is possible to assume that the calorimeter is perfectly isolated. In such a way, it is also valid to assume that the specific heat of the solution is 4.184 J/(g°C) as it is mostly water, therefore, the heat released by the reaction is:

Q_{rxn}=-(15.0g+250.0g)*4.184\frac{J}{g\°C}(16.0-20.0)\°C\\\\ Q_{rxn}=4435.04J    

3) Finally, since the enthalpy of reaction is calculated by dividing the heat released by the reaction over the moles of the solute, in this case NH4Cl, we proceed as follows:

\Delta _rH=\frac{ Q_{rxn}}{n}\\\\\Delta _rH= \frac{ 4435.04J}{15.0g*\frac{1mol}{53.49g} } *\frac{1kJ}{1000J} \\\\\Delta _rH=15.8kJ/mol

Best regards!  

Best regards!

Cite 2 reasons Democritus’ ideas about the atom were NOT accepted
omeli [17]

The two reasons Democritus’ ideas about the atom were NOT accepted are atoms are indestructible and they move in infinite space.

<h3>What is atom?</h3>

An atom is the smallest unit of ordinary matter that forms a chemical element.

<h3>Democritus’ ideas about atom</h3>

Democritus believed that atoms were uniform, solid, hard, incompressible, and indestructible and that they moved in infinite numbers through empty space until stopped.

Differences in atomic shape and size determined the various properties of matter.

Thus, the two reasons Democritus’ ideas about the atom were NOT accepted are atoms are indestructible and they move in infinite space.
