Answer:

The answer to your question is 15500 mg of MgSO₄ 7H₂O

Explanation:

Data

Volume = 30 ml

Concentration = 0.3 M

Formula MgSO4∗7H2O

Process

1.- Calculate the number of moles needed

 Molarity = moles / volume

Solve for moles

 moles = Molarity x volume

Substitution

 moles = 0.3 x 0.03 l

 moles = 0.009 moles of MgSO₄

2.- Calculate the molecular mass of MgSO4∗7H2O

molecular mass = 24 + 32 + 64 + 14 + 112

                           = 246 g

3.- Get the proportion MgSO4 :7H2O, this proportion is 1 : 7

4.- Calculate the amount of MgSO4∗7H2O

    0.009 mol of MgSO4 \frac{7 MgSO4 7H2O}{1 mol MgSO4} \frac{246 g MgSO4 7H2O}{1 mol MgSO4 7H2O}

Simplification

   15.5 g = 15500 mg

A sample of iron with a mass of 200g releases 9840 cal when it freezes at it’s freezing point. What is the molar heat of fusion
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:-

2747.7 Cal mol -1

Explanation:-

Molar heat of Fusion is defined as the amount of heat necessary to melt (or freeze) 1 mole of a substance at its melting point.

Atomic mass of Iron = 55.845 g mol-1

Mass of Iron = 200 g

Number of moles of Iron = 200 g / (55.845 g mol-)

= 3.581 moles

Heat released = 9840 Cal

Molar heat of Fusion = Heat released / Number of moles

= 9840 Cal / 3.581 moles

= 2747.7 Cal mol -1
