Answer:

T_{eq}=23.85^oC

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, as the copper's heat loss is gained by the water, the following energetic relationship is:

\Delta H_{Cu}=-\Delta H_{H_2O}

Therefore the equilibrium temperature shows up as:

m_{Cu}Cp_{Cu}(T_{Cu}-T{eq}) = m_{H_2O}Cp_{H_2O}(T_{eq}-T_{H_2O})\\\\T_{eq}=\frac{m_{Cu}Cp_{Cu}T_{Cu}-m_{H_2O}Cp_{H_2O}T_{H_2O}}{m_{Cu}Cp_{Cu}-m_{H_2O}Cp_{H_2O}} \\

Thus, by knowing that water's heat capacity is 4.18J/g°C, one obtains:

T_{eq}=\frac{155.0g*0.385\frac{J}{g^oC}*128^oC+250.0g*4.18\frac{J}{g^oC}*17.9^oC}{155.0g*0.385\frac{J}{g^oC}+250.0g*4.18\frac{J}{g^oC}}=23.85^oC

Best regards.

A fruit fly is considered a consumer rather than a producer why
levacccp [35]
In an ecosystem, the only true producers are autotrophic organisms like plants and bacteria. These organisms produce energy by converting the energy from the sun into simple sugars.
All of the other organisms in the food chain, like the fruit fly, are simply consuming the energy produced by the plants/bacteria and not actually making/producing energy from a new source.

how many mL of a 3.5 M sodium hydroxide will be needed to neutralize 15mL of a 4.3 M hydrochloric acid solution?
kobusy [5.1K]
Step 1 : write a valanced equation..
NaOH + HCl 》NaCl + H2O

Step 2 : find the number of mole of HCl..
1000 ml ..contains 4.3 mole
15ml... (4.3÷1000)×15 =...

Stem 3 : use mole ratio....
HCl : NaOH
1 : 1
So mole is same as calculated above...

Step 4 :
3.5 mole of NaOH is in 1000ml
(4.3÷1000)×15 mole is in ....


Do the calculation
