A lead mass is heated and placed in a foam cup calorimeter containing 40.0 mL of water at 17.0°C. The water reaches a temperatur
lbvjy [14]

Answer: 502 Joules

Explanation:

To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Volume of water = 40.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{40.0mL}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(1g/mL\times 40.0mL)=40.0g

When metal is dipped in water, the amount of heat released by lead will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by water.

Heat_{\text{absorbed}}=Heat_{\text{released}}

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

q=m\times c\times \Delta T

q = heat absorbed by water

m = mass of water = 40.0 g

T_{final} = final temperature of water = 20.0°C

T_{initial = initial temperature of water = 17.0°C

c = specific heat of water= 4.186 J/g°C

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

q=40.0\times 4.186\times (20.0-17.0)]

q=502J

Hence, the joules of heat were re-leased by the lead is 502

A piece of wood near a fire is at 23°c. it gains 1,160 joules of heat from the fire and reaches a temperature of 42°c. the speci
Alex73 [517]

The mass of the piece of wood is 35.58 g.

Joule = M × T × C

Where, M = mass

T = change in temperature(42C-23C=19 C)

C = specific heat capacity = 1.716 joules/gram

Substituting the values in the equation,

1160 = M × 19 × 1.716

M = 1160/32.604 = 35.58 g

Therefore, the mass of the piece of wood = 35.58 g

<h3>What is meant by specific heat capacity?</h3>

A material's specific heat capacity, which is defined as its heat capacity divided by its mass, determines how much energy is required to increase a gram's temperature by one degree Celsius (or one Kelvin)

<h3>What is mass?</h3>

Mass is the quantity of matter in a physical body.

Anabolic reactions _______ bonds, whereas catabolic reactions __________ bonds. A. decrease; increase. B. break; make C. weaken;
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The corrext answer is E. make; break

Explanation:

In living organisms, the metabolism is either anabolic or catabolic where anabolic metabolism is energy consuming and catabolic metabolism is eneegy releasesing. It should however be noted that anabolic reaction builds or biosynthesize new mollecular structures while catabolic reaction breaks down complex structure bonds into simple structures

The braking down of bonds in catabolic reations realeses energy to sustain the anabolic rection process for the formation of new bonds

A chemist is making 200 l of a solution that is 62% acid. he is mixing an 80% acid solution with a 30% acid solution. how much o
Savatey [412]
Answer: 72L of 30% and 128L of 80%

You can determine the weight of the acid by multiplying the concentration with the volume. Let say v1 is the volume of 30% solution needed and v2 is the volume of 80% solution.
The weight of acid from the used solution should be equal to the product. You can get this equation
final solution= solution1 + solution2
200l * 62%= v1 * 30% + v2*80%
124L= 0.3v1 + 0.8v2
124L- 0.3v1= 0.8v2
v2=155L- 0.375v1

The total volume of both should be 200l. If you use the previous equation, you can calculate:
v1+v2=200L
v1+ (155L- 0.375v1)= 200L
0.625v1= 200L - 155L
v1= 45/ 0.625= 72L


v1+v2=200L
v2= 200L- 72L= 128L

How much heat is needed to condense 22.25 grams of nitrogen gas at â€""195.8°c? the latent heat of vaporization of nitrogen is
Margaret [11]

As per the question, the mass of the nitrogen gas m = 22.25 gram.

The latent heat of vaporization of nitrogen = 199.0 j/g

As per the question, the nitrogen gas will condense. During condensation, the nitrogen gas will lose or release heat equal to its latent heat.

Hence, the heat released by nitrogen gas Q = ml = 22.25 × 199.0 J                                                                           = 4427.75 J.

Hence, the amount of heat released will be 4427.75 J.

<h3>How can you figure out how much heat is in each gram?</h3>

The formula: can be utilized to determine energy. Q = mc ∆T. In the equation, Q stands for energy expressed in joules or calories, m for mass expressed in grams, c for specific heat, and T for temperature change, which is the difference between the final temperature and the initial temperature. Water has a specific heat of 1 calorie/gram °C.
