Step 1 is to determine the mass of each part
Mass of Ca is 40.08 g
Mass of C is 12.01 g
Mass of O is 16.00 x 3 = 48.00 g
Step 2 is to determine the total mass of the compound
Total mass of CaCO3 is 40.08 + 12.01 + 48.00 = 100.09 g

Step 3 is to determine the % of each part using the following formula:
Mass of part / total mass x 100 =

40.08 / 100.09 x 100 = 40.04 % Ca

12.01 / 100.09 x 100 = 12.00 % C

48.00 / 100.09 x 100 = 47.96 % O

Step 4 is to double check by adding all percentages. If they equal 100, then I probably did it right. :)
40.04
+12.00
+47.96
=100.00

You mix 200. mL of 0.400M HCl with 200. mL of 0.400M NaOH in a coffee cup calorimeter. The temperature of the solution goes from

GuDViN [60]

Answer : The enthalpy of neutralization is, 56.012 kJ/mole

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of HCl and NaOH.

$\text{Moles of HCl}=\text{Concentration of HCl}\times \text{Volume of solution}=0.400mole/L\times 0.200L=0.08mol$

$\text{Moles of NaOH}=\text{Concentration of NaOH}\times \text{Volume of solution}=0.400mole/L\times 0.200L=0.08mol$

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

$HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of HCl neutralizes by 1 mole of NaOH

So, 0.08 mole of HCl neutralizes by 0.08 mole of NaOH

Thus, the number of neutralized moles = 0.08 mole

Now we have to calculate the mass of water.

As we know that the density of water is 1 g/ml. So, the mass of water will be:

The volume of water = $200mL+200L=400mL$

$\text{Mass of water}=\text{Density of water}\times \text{Volume of water}=1g/ml\times 400mL=400g$

Now we have to calculate the heat absorbed during the reaction.

$q=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

where,

q = heat absorbed = ?

$c$ = specific heat of water = $4.18J/g^oC$

m = mass of water = 400 g

$T_{final}$ = final temperature of water = $27.78^oC=273+25.10=300.78K$

$T_{initial}$ = initial temperature of metal = $25.10^oC=273+27.78=298.1K$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q=400g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (300.78-298.1)K$

$q=4480.96J$

Thus, the heat released during the neutralization = -4480.96 J

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy of neutralization.

$\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}$

where,

$\Delta H$ = enthalpy of neutralization = ?

q = heat released = -4480.96 J

n = number of moles used in neutralization = 0.08 mole

$\Delta H=\frac{-4480.96J}{0.08mole}=-56012J/mole=-56.012kJ/mol$

The negative sign indicate the heat released during the reaction.

Therefore, the enthalpy of neutralization is, 56.012 kJ/mole

If a liquid sample of naphthalene is heated and remains at 218 degrees c until it is completely vaporized, you know that 218 deg

Alexxandr [17]

The correct answer is b. Boiling point, why? because the liquid sample of napthalene is heated and remained at the temperature of 218 degrees celsius, the outcome was that the napthalene was completely vaporized, therefore we are given the scenario that at the temperature of 218 degrees celsius is considered to be the boiling pont of napthalene.

Why did Boyle think that chemistry was the key to understanding?

stepan [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Boyle believed that chemistry – the behavior of substances – could be explained through the motion of atoms, which in turn could be understood through mechanics – Galileo's mathematics of motion. Boyle was ultimately proved correct, because today we can understand chemistry mathematically, through quantum mechanics.
