Specific heat is measuring how much heat is needed to raise one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius. Therefore, the substance with the lowest specific heat requires the least amount of energy to raise its temperature. This means if all of the substances got the same amount of heat, the substance with the lowest specific heat's temperature would raise the most. Or, if each substance was exposed to constant heat, the substance with the lowest specific heat would heat up the fastest. Since copper has the lowest specific heat, the answer is copper.

Given the following balanced equation at 120°C: A(g) + B(g) ⇋ 2 C(g) + D(s)(a) At equilibrium a 4.0 liter container was found to

Answer:

a) kc = 0,25

b) [A] = 0,41 M

c) [A] = 0,8 M

[B] =0,2 M

[C] = 0,2M

Explanation:

The equilibrium-constant expression is defined as the ratio of the concentration of products over concentration of reactants. Each concentration is raised to the power of their coefficient.

Also, pure solid and liquids are not included in the equilibrium-constant expression because they don't affect the concentration of chemicals in the equilibrium.

If global reaction is:

A(g) + B(g) ⇋ 2 C(g) + D(s)

The kc = $\frac{[C]^2}{[A][B]}$

a) The concentrations of each compound are:

[A] = $\frac{1,60 moles}{4,0 L}$ = 0,4 M

[B] = $\frac{0,40 moles}{4,0 L}$ = 0,1 M

[C] = $\frac{0,40 moles}{4,0 L}$ = 0,1 M

kc = $\frac{[0,1]^2}{[0,4][0,1]}$ = 0,25

b) The addition of B and D in the same amount will, in equilibrium, produce these changes:

[A] = $\frac{1,60-x moles}{4,0 L}$

[B] = $\frac{0,60-x moles}{4,0 L}$

[C] = $\frac{0,60+2x moles}{4,0 L}$

0,25 = $\frac{[0,60+2x]^2}{[1,60-x][0,60-x]}$

You will obtain

3,75x² +2,95x +0,12 = 0

Solving

x =-0,74363479081119 → No physical sense

x =-0,043031875855476

Thus, concentration of A is:

$\frac{1,60-(-0,04 moles)}{4,0 L}$ = 0,41 M

c) When volume is suddenly halved concentrations will be the concentrations in equilibrium over 2L:

[A] = $\frac{1,60 moles}{2,0 L}$ = 0,8 M

[B] = $\frac{0,40 moles}{2,0 L}$ = 0,2 M

[C] = $\frac{0,40 moles}{2,0 L}$ = 0,2M

I hope it helps!

Answer: 0.0285 moles of HCl is present in given amount of solution.

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of moles present per liter of solution. The units of molarity are mol/L. The formula used to calculate molarity:

$\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (mL)}}$ .....(1)
