Benzene is a starting material in the synthesis of nylon fibers and polystyrene (styrofoam). Its specific heat capacity is 1.74

J/g·°C. If 16.7 kJ of energy is absorbed by a 225-g sample of benzene at 20.0°C, what is its final temperature?

<u>Answer:</u> The final temperature of the sample is 62.66°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the amount of heat absorbed, we use the equation:

Q=mc\Delta T

where,

Q = heat absorbed = 16.7 kJ = 16700 J   (Conversion factor:  1 kJ = 1000 J)

m = Mass of the sample = 225 g

c = specific heat capacity of sample = 1.74J/g.^oC

\Delta T = change in temperature = T_2-T_1=(T_2-20.0)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

16700=225g\times 1.74J/g.^oC\times (T_2-20)^oC\\\\T_2=62.66^oC

Hence, the final temperature of the sample is 62.66°C

What is the molarity of 53.0 grams of HCl dissolved in 400.0 mL of water
Bond [772]

Answer:

Molarity = 3.625 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of HCl = 53.0 g

Volume of water = 400.0 mL (400/1000 = 0.4 L)

Molarity of solution = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of of HCl:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 53 g/ 36.5 g/mol

Number of moles =1.45 mol

Molarity:

Molarity = number of moles of solute / volume of solution in L

Molarity =  1.45 mol / 0.4L

Molarity = 3.625 M

A welding torch produces a flame by burning acetylene fuel in the presence of oxygen. This flame is used to melt a metal. Which
NISA [10]

Answer:

chemical energy into thermal energy

Explanation:

The reaction taking place is as follows

2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ = 4CO₂ + 2H₂O + Heat

In this reaction bonds present in acetylene is broken and new bond present in water and carbon dioxide are formed . In the whole process of bond breaking and bond formation , there is net loss of energy and that energy is released as heat energy .

Thus we can say that in the whole process , chemical energy is converted into heat energy .

A 51.9g sample of iron, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.449·J·g?1°C?1, is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) t
Ghella [55]

Answer:

the initial temperature of the iron sample is Ti = 90,36 °C

Explanation:

Assuming the calorimeter has no heat loss to the surroundings:

Q w + Q iron = 0

Also when the T stops changing means an equilibrium has been reached and therefore, in that moment, the temperature of the water is the same that the iron ( final temperature of water= final temperature of iron = T )  

Assuming Q= m*c*( T- Tir)  

mc*cc*(T-Tc)+mir*cir*(T - Tir) = 0

 Tir = 20.3 °C + 300 g * 4.186 J/g°C * (20.3 C - 19 °C) / ( 51.9 g * 0.449 J/g°C )

 Tir = 90.36 °C

Note :

- The specific heat capacity of water is assumed 1 cal/g°C = 4.186 J/g°C  

- We assume no reaction between iron and water
