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

15. Which sample of argon gas has the same number of atoms as a 100.-milliliter sample of helium gas at 1.0 atm and 300. K? A) 5
OLga [1]

The sample of argon gas that has the same number of atoms as a 100 milliliter sample of helium gas at 1.0 atm and 300 is 100. mL at 1.0 atm and 300. K

The correct option is D.

<h3>What is the number of moles of gases in the given samples?</h3>

The number of moles of gases in each of the given samples of gas is found below using the ideal gas equation.

The ideal gas equation is: PV/RT = n

where;

  • P is pressure
  • V is volume
  • n is number of moles of gas
  • T is temperature of gas
  • R is molar gas constant = 0.082 atm.L/mol/K

Moles of gas in the given helium gas sample:

P = 1.0 atm, V = 100 mL or 0.1 L, T = 300 K

n =  1 * 0.1 / 0.082 * 300

n = 0.00406 moles

For the argon gas sample:

A. n =  1 * 0.05 / 0.082 * 300

n = 0.00203 moles

B. n =  0.5 * 0.05 / 0.082 * 300

n = 0.00102 moles

C. n =  0.5 * 0.1 / 0.082 * 300

n = 0.00203 moles

D. n =  1 * 0.1 / 0.082 * 300

n = 0.00406 moles

If you have 40 grams of potassium nitrate in 100 grams of water at 20 C:
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Explanation:The final homogenous solution, after cooling it to 40°C, will contain 47 g of potassium sulfate disolved in 150 g of water, so you can calculate the amount disolved per 100 g of water in this way:

[47 g of solute / 150 g of water] * 100 g of g of water = 31.33 grams of solute in 100 g of water.

So, when you compare with the solutiblity, 15 g of solute / 100 g of water, you realize that the solution has more solute dissolved with means that it is supersaturated.

To make a saturated solution, 15 grams of potassium sulfate would dissolve in 100 g of water.
