The final answer is -322, 320 Joules. The solution for the problem is:

The equation that must be used in this problem is:

U = mCp(Tf-Ti)

where:
U = energy released or absorbed in Joules
m = mass in kg
Cp = specific heat of material in J/kg-C
Tf = final temperature, C
Ti = initial temperature, C

Looking up the Cp of granite gives a value of 790 J/kg-C.

U = 17kg (790 J/kg-C) (21-45)
U = - 322, 320 Joules (negative means heat is released)

How many moles of CaO will be produced from 23.9 g of Ca?<br>2Ca(s) + O2(g) – 20:0(3)<br>mol​
inessss [21]

Answer:

0.6 moles of CaO will produced.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of calcium = 23.9 g

Moles of CaO produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Ca + O₂ → 2CaO

Number of moles of calcium:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 23.9 g / 40 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.6 mol

Now we will compare the moles of calcium and CaO.

            Ca         :          CaO

              2          :          2

            0.6         :        0.6

 0.6 moles of CaO will produced.

The molar madd of Ca(OH)2
Nonamiya [84]
What you have to do is find a periodic table and add the mass of each atom that the compound is made of.

Ca= 40.1
O= 16.0
H= 1.01

keep in mind that you have to also account for how many atoms of each there are in the molecule. for example, in Ca(OH)2, there are one Ca, two O and two H

so the molar mass of Ca(OH)2= 40.1 + (2 x 16.0) + (2 x 1.01)= 74.12 g/mol
