How many kilograms of water at 15oC can be heated to 95oC by burning 143 grams of methane, CH4, assuming that 100% of the heat i

s used to heat the water. The heat of combustion of methane is 891 kJ per mole of methane. (The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/goC.)

Answer:

23.7 kg is the mass of H₂O that can be heated

Explanation:

First of all, we need to determine the heat used.

891 kJ per mol of methane is released in the combustion, but we don't have 1 mol, we have 143 g

We convert the mass to moles → 143 g . 1mol / 16 g = 8.93 moles

Now, a rule of three:

1 mol of CH₄ release a heat of 891 kJ

8.93 moles of CH₄ will release (8.93 . 891 kJ) / 1 = 7956.63 kJ

If we convert to J → 7956.63 kJ . 1000 J / kJ = 7956630 Joules

Now we determined the heat released, we can apply the calorimetry formula

Q = m . C . (Final T° - Initial T°)

7956630 J = mass . 4.184 J/g°C ( 95°C - 15°C)

7956630 J / 4.184 J/g°C . 80°C = mass

23771 g = mass

If we convert from g to kg → 23771 g . 1kg / 1000 g = 23.7 kg

A solution has a poh of 7. 1 at 10∘c. what is the ph of the solution given that kw=2. 93×10−15 at this temperature? remember to
Gnom [1K]

A solution has a pOH of 7. 1 at 10∘c. Then the pH of the solution given that kw=2. 93×10−15 at this temperature is 7.4 .

It is given that,

pOH of solution = 7.1

Kw =2.93×10^(-15)

Firstly, we will calculate the value of pKw

The expression which we used to calculate the pKw is,

pKw=-log [Kw]

Now by putting the value of Kw in this expression,

pKw =−log{2.93×10^(-15)}

pKw =15log(2.93)

pKw=14.5

Now we have to calculate the pH of the solution.

As we know that,

pH+pOH=pKw

Now put all the given values in this formula,

pH+7.1=14.5

pH=7.4

Therefore, we find the value of pH of the solution is, 7.4.

One mechanism for the synthesis of ammonia proposes that N₂ and H₂ molecules catalytically dissociate into atoms:N₂ ⇆ 2N(g) log
Pavlova-9 [17]

The artificial fixation of nitrogen (N2) has enormous energy, environmental, and societal impact, the most important of which is the synthesis of ammonia (NH3) for fertilizers that help support nearly half of the world's population.

<h3>Artificial fixation of nitrogen</h3>

a) The equilibrium constant expression is Kp​=PCH4​​ PH2​ O​P CO​×PH 2​3​​.

(b) (i) As the pressure increases, the equilibrium will shift to the left so that less number of moles are produced.

(ii) For an exothermic reaction, with the increase in temperature, the equilibrium will shift in the backward direction.

(iii) When a catalyst is used, the equilibrium is not disturbed. The equilibrium is quickly attained

Some magnesium powder was mixed with some copper( II)oxide and heated strongly. there was a victorious reaction producing a lot
-BARSIC- [3]

Reaction:

\mathrm{Mg \: + \: CuO \rightarrow Cu\: + \: MgO}

Magnesium is a stronger reducing agent than copper and is thus able to reduce copper(II) oxide.

Products of the reaction: Magnesium oxide and metallic copper.
