Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The specific heat is  c_b  = 0.402 J / g \cdot ^oC

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of  the sample is  m = 54.4 \ g

     The mass of the water is  m_w = 150.0 \ g

     The initial temperature of the sample is  T_i  = 95.1 ^oC

     The initial temperature of the water is  T_{w_i} =  15^oC

     The final temperature of the water is  T  =  17.6 ^oC

Note the final temperature of water is equal to the final temperature of brass sample

    The pressure is  P =1 \ atm

Generally for according to the law of energy conservation

    The heat lost by sample  =  The heat gain by water

   

The heat lost by brass sample is  mathematically evaluated as    

          H_L  =  m * c_b  *  [T_i - T]

Where c_b is the specific neat of the brass sample

The heat gained  by water is  mathematically evaluated as          

        H_g  = m_w *c_w * [T_w - T ]

where c_w is the specific heat of water which has a constant value of  

     c_w =  4.186  joule/gram

So

    H_L  =  H_g \ \equiv m* c_b  * [T_i -T] =  m_w * c_w * [T - T_w]

substituting values

    52.4 * c_b  * [95.1  - 17.6] =  150 * 4.186 * [ 17.6 - 15.0]

    c_b  = 0.402 J / g \cdot ^oC

A 0.0100 M solution of AgNO3 has a concentration of Ag ion equivalent to
qaws [65]

Answer:

0.0100M of AgNO3 contains 0.0100M of Ag+

Explanation:

AgNO3 when ionized yields Ag+ and NO3-. This means that the amount of AgNO3 in solution is equivalent to the amount of Ag+ and NO3- in that same solution.

1M of AgNO3 solution produces 1M of Ag+  

1M of AgNO3 solution produces 1M of NO3-

This occurs because of the complete ionization of AgNO3 in solution, allowing complete dissolution of the compound.

The density of benzene is 0.879g/mL. The volume (with 1 decimal) of 131.9g sample of benzene is how many mL?
timurjin [86]

Answer:

150.1 mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Density of benzene (ρ): 0.879 g/mL
  • Mass of the sample of benzene (m): 131.9 g
  • Volume of the sample of benzene (V): ?

Step 2: Calculate the volume of the sample of benzene

Density is an intrinsic property. It is equal to the quotient between the mass and the volume of the sample of benzene.

ρ = m/V

V = m/ρ

V = 131.9 g/(0.879 g/mL)

V = 150.1 mL
