A 10.0 g ice cube is placed into 250 g of water with an initial temperature of 20.0 C. If the water drops to a temperature of 16

.8 C, has a specific heat of 4.18 J/g*K, what is the enthalpy of fusion of the ice. Ignore the fact that the ice, once melted, has to be heated again.

the mass of ice taken = 10 g

the mass of water = 250 g

initial temperature of water = 20 C

the final temperature of water = 16. 8 C

specific heat of water = 4.18 J/g*K

the heat absorbed by ice to melt = heat loss by water

heat loss by water = mass X specific heat of water X change in temperature

heat loss by water = 250 X 4.18 X (20-16.8) = 3344 Joules

heat gained by ice = 3344 J

heat gained by ice = enthalpy of fusion X moles of ice

moles of ice = mass / molar mass = 10 / 18 = 0.56 moles

enthalpy of fusion = 3344 / 0.56 = 5971.43 J / mole

Https://superhumanacademy.com/how-to-memorize-polyatomic-ions-chemical-formulas/

This is how I memorized the ionic formulae. It is a lot to remember, so it does take some time and studying. But this website helped me learn it fast and in a suuuper unique way. I learned it 3 years ago and could still name quite a bit of them. Hope this helps!!!

What is the half-life of 20 g of a radioactive sample if 5 g remain after 8 minutes?
Anni [7]

Hello!

The half-life is the time of half-disintegration, it is the time in which half of the atoms of an isotope disintegrate.

We have the following data:

mo (initial mass) = 20 g

m (final mass after time T) = 5 g

x (number of periods elapsed) = ?

P (Half-life) = ? (in minutes)

T (Elapsed time for sample reduction) = 8 minutes

Let's find the number of periods elapsed (x), let us see:

m =  \dfrac{m_o}{2^x}

5 =  \dfrac{20}{2^x}

2^x = \dfrac{20}{5}

2^x = 4

2^x = 2^2

\boxed{x = 2}


Now, let's find the half-life (P) of the radioactive sample, let's see:

T = x*P

8 = 2*P

2\:P = 8

P = \dfrac{8}{2}

\boxed{\boxed{P = 4\:minutes}}\Longleftarrow(Half-Life)\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

I Hope this helps, greetings ... DexteR! =)

A 32 L samples of xenon gas at 10°C is expanded to 35 L. Calculate the final temperature.
morpeh [17]

Answer:

              Final Temperature = 36.54 ⁰C

Explanation:

Lets suppose the gas is acting ideally, then according to Charle's Law, "<em>The volume of a fixed mass of gas at constant pressure is directly proportional to the absolute temperature</em>". Mathematically for initial and final states the relation is as follow,

                                                V₁ / T₁  =  V₂ / T₂

Data Given;

                  V₁  =  32 L

                  T₁  =  10 °C = 283.15 K             ∴ K = °C + 273.15

                  V₂  =  35 L

                  T₂  =  ??

Solving equation for T₂,

                         T₂  =  V₂ × T₁  / V₁

Putting values,

                         T₂  =  (35 L × 283.15 K) ÷ 32 L

                         T₂  =  309.69 K     ∴ ( 36.54 °C )

Result:

           As the volume is increased from 32 L to 35 L, therefore, the temperature must have increased from 10 °C to 36.54 °C.
