Answer:

Mass of nitrogen dioxide produced = 4.6 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of ammonia = 2.30 L

Mass of nitrogen dioxide produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

4NH₃ + 7O₂ → 4NO₂ + 6H₂O

Number of moles of ammonia at STP:

PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

n = 1 atm × 2.30 L / 0.0821 atm.L/K.mol × 273 K

n = 2.30 atm .L / 22.414 atm.L/mol

n = 0.1 mol

Now we will compare the moles of ammonia with nitrogen dioxide from balance chemical equation.

NH₃ : NO₂

4 : 4

0.1 : 0.1

Mass of NO₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.1 mol × 46 g/mol

Mass = 4.6 g

Answer:

The bismuth sample.

Explanation:

The specific heat $c$ of a substance (might not be a metal) is the amount of heat required for heating a unit mass of this substance by unit temperature (e.g., $\rm 1\; ^{\circ}C$ .) The formula for specific heat is:

$\displaystyle c = \frac{Q}{m \cdot \Delta T}$ ,

where

$Q$ is the amount of heat supplied.
$m$ is the mass of the sample.
$\Delta T$ is the increase in temperature.

In this question, the value of $Q$ (amount of heat supplied to the metal) and $m$ (mass of the metal sample) are the same for all four metals. To find $\Delta T$ (change in temperature,) rearrange the equation:

$\displaystyle c \cdot \Delta T = \frac{Q}{m}$ ,

$\displaystyle \Delta T = \frac{Q}{c \cdot m}$ .

In other words, the change in temperature of the sample, $\Delta T$ can be expressed as a fraction. Additionally, the specific heat of sample, $c$ , is in the denominator of that fraction. Hence, the value of the fraction would be the largest for sample with the smallest specific heat.

Make sure that all the specific heat values are in the same unit. Find the one with the smallest specific heat: bismuth ( $\rm 0.123 \; J \cdot g\cdot \,^{\circ}C^{-1}$ .) That sample would have the greatest increase in temperature. Since all six samples started at the same temperature, the bismuth sample would also have the highest final temperature.
