4. Calorimetry can be used to determine the specific heat capacity of different substances (not just metals). Using the online c

alorimeter simulation you perform the following calorimetry experiment: 100g of ethanol at 50.0°C is mixed with 100. g of water at 20.0°C. After mixing the temperature is 31.11°C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of ethanol.
In problem #4 you calculated the specific heat capacity of ethanol from data obtained using the online calorimeter simulation. When you try the same experiment in a real calorimeter, the final temperature after mixing is 34.00°C. Offer an explanation for why the final temperatures are different. Hint: the calorimeter simulation may be missing something.

Answer:

the specific heat capacity of ethanol is 2.4608 J/g°C

The variation in the final temperature is due to the rate of heat lost. Calorimeters do not dissipate or absorb energy

The graph below shows how the temperature and volume of a gas vary when the number of moles and the pressure of the gas are held
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Option C. By increasing the temperature

Explanation:

From the graphical illustration above, we see clearly that the volume and temperature of the gas are directly proportional. This implies that as the temperature increases, the volume will also increase and as the temperature decreases, the volume will also decrease. This can further be explained by using the ideal gas equation as shown below:

PV = nRT

P is the pressure.

V is the volume.

n is the number of mole.

R is the gas constant.

T is the temperature.

PV = nRT

Divide both side by P

V = nRT/P

Since n and P are constant, the equation above becomes:

V & T

V = KT

K is the constant.

The above equation i.e V = KT implies that:

As T increases, V will also increase and as T decreases, V will also decrease.

Considering the question given above,

The volume of the gas can be increased if the temperature is increased.

What is the concentration of a solution prepared by placing 20. mL of 0.12 M K2S in a graduated cylinder and pouring water until
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: 0.024 M

Explanation:

According to the neutralization law,

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

where,

M_1 = molarity of stock solution = 0.12 M

V_1 = volume of stock solution = 20.0 ml

M_2 = molarity of diluted solution = ? M

V_2 = volume of diluted solution = 100.0 ml

Putting in the values we get:

0.12M\times 20.0=M_2\times 100.0

M_2=0.024

Therefore, the concentration of the resulting solution is 0.024 M.

What is the ph of a solution containing 0.01 m acetic acid (pka = 4.7) and 0.1 m sodium acetate?
Pepsi [2]

The ph of a solution is 3.7

Solution:

According to the equaiton of Henderson-Hasselback

      pH= pKa+ log(salt/acid)

here it is given the value of

      pKa= 4.7

So,

      pH = pKa+ log(0.1/0.01)

            = 4.7 + log(0.1)

            = 4.7–1

            = 3.7.

The following problem illustrates how the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation can be used to determine how much acid and conjugate base should be combined to create a buffer solution with a specific pH.

A balloon contains helium gas expands from 230ml to 860 ml as more helium is added. What was the initial quantity of helium pres
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

n₁ = 1.0× 10⁻⁴ mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of balloon = 230 mL

Initial number of moles of He =?

Final number of moles of He = 3.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol

Final volume of balloon = 860 mL

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through Avogadro law,

"Number of moles of gas and volume are directly proportional to each other at constant temperature and constant pressure"

Mathematical relationship:

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

No we will put the values.

230 mL  /n₁   = 860 mL/ 3.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol

n₁ = 230 mL× 3.8 × 10⁻⁴ mol/ 860 mL

n₁ = 874 × 10⁻⁴ mol. mL / 860 mL

n₁ = 1.0× 10⁻⁴ mol
