Answer:

\boxed{\text{(a) 0.236 J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$; (b) 106 g/mol}}  

Explanation:

a) Specific heat capacity of the metal

The guiding principle in calorimetry is the Law of Conservation of Energy: the sum of all the energy transfers must add up to zero. That is,

q₁ + q₂ + … = 0

The formula for the heat q gained or lost by a substance is

q = mCΔT

where

 m = the mass of the substance.

 C = its specific heat capacity.

ΔT = the change in temperature.

In this problem, there are two heat transfers: the heat lost by the metal and the heat gained by the water.

m₁C₁ΔT₁ + m₂C₂ΔT₂ = 0

Data:  

m₁ = 58.215 g; T₁ = 99.0 °C; T₂ = 27.2 °C

m₂ = 41.202 g; T₁ = 21.5 °C; T₂ = 27.2 °C

Calculations:

ΔT₁ = 27.2 - 99.0 = -71.8 °C

ΔT₂ = 27.2 - 21.5 =    5.7 °C

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{heat lost by metal} + \text{heat gained by water} & = & 0\\m_{1}C_{1}\Delta T_{1} + m_{2}C_{2}\Delta T_{2}& = & 0\\\text{58.215 g $\times$ C$_{1} \times$ (-71.8 $^{\circ}\text{C}$)} + \text{41.202 g} \times 4.184 \text{ J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$} \times 5.75^{\circ}\text{C} & = & 0\\-4180C_{1}\text{ g}^{\circ}\text{C} + 987 \text{ J} & = & 0\\\end{array}\\

\begin{array}{rcl}-4180C_{1}\text{ g}^{\circ}\text{C}& = & -987 \text{ J}\\C_{1}& = & \dfrac{-987 \text{ J}}{-4180 \text{ g}^{\circ}\text{C}}\\\\& = & \textbf{0.236 J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$} \\\end{array}\\\text{The specific heat capacity of the metal is $\boxed{\textbf{0.236 J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$}}$}

b) Approximate molar mass of the metal

We could look up the metal that has the calculated specific heat capacity, but that would give the exact molar mass.

They asked for the approximate value, do they are probably expecting you to do something else.

Per the Law of Dulong and Petit, the molar specific heat capacity of a metal should be about 24.9 J·°C⁻¹mol⁻¹

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{0.236n J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$g$^{-1}$}  & = & \text{24.9 J$^{\circ}$C$^{-1}$mol$^{-1}$}\\\text{0.236n g$^{-1}$}  & = & \text{24.9 mol$^{-1}$}\\n & = & \dfrac{24.9\text{ mol}^{-1}}{0.236\text{ g}^{^{-1}}}\\\\&= &\textbf{106 g/mol}\\\end{array}\\\text{The approximate molar mass of the metal is $\large \boxed{\textbf{106 g/mol}}$}

The characteristic odor of pineapple is due to ethyl butyrate, a compound containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. combustion of
Olin [163]

Answer:

            Empirical Formula  =  C₃H₆O₁

Solution:

Data Given:

                      Mass of Ethyl Butyrate  =  3.61 mg  =  0.00361 g

                      Mass of CO₂  =  8.22 mg  =  0.00822 g

                      Mass of H₂O  =  3.35 mg  =  0.00335 g

Step 1: Calculate %age of Elements as;

                      %C  =  (mass of CO₂ ÷ Mass of sample) × (12 ÷ 44) × 100

                      %C  =  (0.00822 ÷ 0.00361) × (12 ÷ 44) × 100

                      %C  =  (2.277) × (12 ÷ 44) × 100

                      %C  =  2.277 × 0.2727 × 100

                      %C  =  62.09 %


                      %H  =  (mass of H₂O ÷ Mass of sample) × (2.02 ÷ 18.02) × 100

                      %H  =  (0.00335 ÷ 0.00361) × (2.02 ÷ 18.02) × 100

                      %H  =  (0.9279) × (2.02 ÷ 18.02) × 100

                      %H  =  0.9279 × 0.1120 × 100

                     %H  =  10.39 %


                      %O  =  100% - (%C + %H)

                      %O  =  100% - (62.09% + 10.39%)

                      %O  =  100% - 72.48%

                      %O  =  27.52 %

Step 2: Calculate Moles of each Element;

                      Moles of C  =  %C ÷ At.Mass of C

                      Moles of C  = 62.09 ÷ 12.01

                      Moles of C  =  5.169 mol


                      Moles of H  =  %H ÷ At.Mass of H

                      Moles of H  = 10.39 ÷ 1.01

                      Moles of H  =  10.287 mol


                      Moles of O  =  %O ÷ At.Mass of O

                      Moles of O  = 27.52 ÷ 16.0

                     Moles of O  =  1.720 mol

Step 3: Find out mole ratio and simplify it;

                C                                        H                                     O

             5.169                                10.287                              1.720

       5.169/1.720                       10.287/1.720                     1.720/1.720

               3.00                                   5.98                                   1

                  3                                      ≈ 6                                     1

Result:

         Empirical Formula  =  C₃H₆O₁
