Answer : Initial temperature of the water is 518.3 K

Explanation :

The specific heat of water (Cp) can be expressed in 2 ways

1) Cp = 1 J g⁻¹ K⁻¹ or

2) Cp = 1 kJ kg⁻¹ K⁻¹

The amount of heat absorbed by water is given by the following equation.

Q = m×Cp×ΔT

Here Q is the amount of energy absorbed in kilojoules

m is the mass of water in kilograms

Cp is specific heat of water

ΔT is the difference is temperature of water.

We have been given that

Q = 87 kJ

Cp = 1 kJ kg⁻¹ K⁻¹

m = 587.00 kg

Let us plug in these values in equation for Q

Q = mxCpxΔT

87 kJ = 587.00 kg x 1 kJ kg⁻¹ K⁻¹ x ΔT

87/587.00 = ΔT

ΔT = 0.15 K

ΔT is calculated as Tf - Ti where Tf is the final temperature and Ti is the initial temperature .

We know that Tf = 518.4 K

And we calculated ΔT as 0.15 K.

Let us plug these values in the equation

ΔT = Tf - Ti

0.15 K = 518.4 K - Ti

Ti = 518.25 K

Initial temperature of the water is 518.3 K

Answer:

Single replacement reaction (aka single displacement reaction)

Explanation:

In a single replacement reaction, one element is substituted for another in a compound to create a new compound and a new element in the products. The general form is:

A + BC --> B + AC

In the case of this question, Cr and Fe "trade places."

An initial mixture of nitrogen gas and hydrogen gas is reacted in a rigid container at a certain temperature by the reaction At
anygoal [31]

Answer: [N2]₀ = 10M and [H2]₀ = 11M

Explanation: To calculate the initial concentration, you would have to set up an ICE table, which is an organized way of tracking known quantities or the ones you want to find. ICE stands for:

I is initial amount;

C is change in concentration;

E is for equilibrium concentration;

For the mixture,

       N2                       3H2                2NH3

I      [N2]₀                     [H2]₀                  0

C     - x                          -3x                 +2x

E     [N2]₀ - x =8      [H2]₀ - 3x =5       2x =4

With the product, we can find "x":

2x=4

x=2M

With x=2, find the concentrations:

[N2]₀ - x = 8

[N2]₀ = 10M

[H2]₀ - 3x = 5

[H2]₀ = 11M

The initial concentrations of nitrogen gas [N2] is 10.0 M and of hydrogen gas [H2] is 11.0 M.

Heating a carboxylic acid with a primary amine forms water along with what organic product? OA) A secondary amide OB) A primary
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

A) secondary amide

Explanation:

When carboxylic acid reacts with a primary amine, a condensation reaction takes place with the elimination of a water molecule .

For example, ethanol reacts with methylamine which is a primary amine gives N-Methylacetamide and a water molecule as:

CH_3COOH+NH_2CH_3\rightarrow CH_3-CONH-CH_3+H_2O

The bond formed which is

  O

   ||

-- C  ---NH ---

is known as secondary amide group as only one hydrogen is attached to nitrogen atom in the amide bond.
