When 2.00 g of methane are burned in a bomb calorimeter, the change in temperature is 3.08°C. The heat capacity of the calorimet

er is 2.68 kJ/°C. The molar mass of methane is 16.042 g/mol. What is the approximate molar enthalpy of combustion of this substance?

Answer:

The approximate molar enthalpy of combustion of this substance is -66 kJ/mole.

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the heat gained by the calorimeter.

q=c\times \Delta T

where,

q = Heat gained = ?

c = Specific heat = 2.68 kJ/^oC

ΔT =  The change in temperature = 3.08°C

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=2.68 kJ/^oC\times 3.08^oC

q=8.2544 kJ

Now we have to calculate molar enthalpy of combustion of this substance :

\Delta H_{comb}=-\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H_{comb} = enthalpy change = ?

q = heat gained = 8.2544kJ

n = number of moles methane = \frac{\text{Mass of methane}}{\text{Molar mass of methane }}=\frac{2.00 g}{16.042 g/mol}=0.1247 mole

\Delta H_{comb}=-\frac{8.2544 kJ}{0.1247 mole}=-66.21 kJ/mole\approx -66 kJ/mole

Therefore,  the approximate molar enthalpy of combustion of this substance is -66 kJ/mole.

2. Problem: Is colored or black and white text more easily remembered? Hypothesis: If the text is colored, then the text is more
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

This question contains a lot of subsections. Please find the variables to each question below

Explanation:

Hypothesis is a testable explanation to a scientific question. It aims at proffering a testable solution to an observed problem. It usually goes in an IF, THEN format.

Dependent variable is the variable being measured in an experiment, while the independent variable is the variable that is manipulated or changed by the experimenter.

The control group is the group that does not receive the experimental treatment while constant is the variable that is kept unchanged for all groups in the experiment.

Based on this explanation, find the answers to the hypothesis, independent variable, dependent variable, constant, and control groups to each question.

2. Dependent variable: How easy it is to remember

Independent variable: Color of the text

Control: Group given Black and White text to read

Constants: Same text

3. Hypothesis: If the temperature is increased, THEN the speed of ants increases or move faster

Independent variable: TEMPERATURE

Dependent variable: SPEED OF ANTS

Control: Ants placed in room temperature

Constants: SAME KIND OF ANTS

4. Hypothesis: IF the pH of the soil is acidic or alkaline, THEN the growth of strawberries will be inhibited

Independent variable: pH of soil

Dependent variable: Growth of strawberries

Control: Strawberries grown in a Neutral pH soil

Constants: Same type of plants (strawberries)

5. Hypothesis: IF caffeine is taken, then the blood pressure will be increased or raised.

Independent variable: CAFFEINE

Dependent variable: BLOOD PRESSURE

Control: Group given no caffeine

Constants: Same amount of caffeine

6. Hypothesis: IF music is played, THEN the heart rate increases

Independent variable: MUSIC

Dependent variable: HEART RATE

Control: Groups placed where no music is played

Constants: Same type of music, same time music runs for etc.

7. Hypothesis: IF bleach is present/used, THEN bacteria will die

Independent variable: Bleach

Dependent variable: Death of bacteria

Control: Bacteria given no bleach

Constants: Same species of bacteria, Same type of bleach

Calculate the number of C atoms in 0.190 mole C6H14O.<br> can anyone help me on this one?
likoan [24]
In 0.190 mole of C6H14O, there is 0.190*6 (number of C in one molecule) = 1.140 mole of C atoms. The total number of C atoms = 1.14 * 6*10^{23} (atoms of C in one mole) = 6.84*10^{23} atoms.

Suppose that coal of density 1.5 g/cm^3 is pure carbon. (It is, in fact, much more complicated, but this is a reasonable first a
NISA [10]

Answer:

q = -6464.9 kJ

Explanation:

We are given that the heat of combustion is  ∆H° = −394 kJ per mol of carbon.Therefore what we need to do is calculate how many moles of C are in the lump of coal by finding its mass since the density is given.

vol = 5.6 cm x 5.1 cm x 4.6 cm = 131.38 cm³

m = d x v = 1.5 g/cm³ x 131.38 cm³ = 197.06 g

mol C = m/MW = 197.06 g/ 12.01g/mol = 16.41 mol

q =  −394 kJ /mol C x 16.41 mol C = -6464.9 kJ
