A 1.0 g sample of a cashew was burned in a calorimeter containing 1000. g of water, and the temperature of the water changed fro

m 20.0°C to 25.0°C. In another experiment, a 3.0 g sample of a marshmallow was burned in a calorimeter containing 2000. g of water, and the temperature of the water changed from 25.0°C to 30.0°C. Based on the data, which of the following can be concluded about the energy content for 1.0 g of each of the two substances? (The specific heat of water is 4.2 J/(g⋅°C).) (A) The combustion of 1.0 g of cashew releases less energy than the combustion of 1.0 g of marshmallow. (B) The combustion of 1.0 g of cashew releases the same amount of energy as the^combustion of 1.0 g of marshmallow. (C) The combustion of 1.0 g of cashew releases more energy than the combustion of 1.0g of marshmallow. (D) No comparison can be made because the two systems started with different masses of food, different masses of water, and different initial temperatures.

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

1.0 g sample of a cashew :

Heat released on  combustion of 1.0 gram of cashew = -Q

We have mass of water = m = 1000 g

Specific heat of water = c = 4.184 J/g°C

ΔT = 30°C - 25°C = 5°C

Heat absorbed by the water :  Q

Q=1000 g\times 4.184 J/g^oC\times 5^oC=20,920 J

Heat released on  combustion of 1.0 gram of cashew is -20,920 J.

3.0 g sample of a marshmallows  :

Heat released on  combustion of 3.0 g sample of a marshmallows = -Q'

We have mass of water = m = 2000 g

Specific heat of water = c = 4.184 J/g°C

ΔT = 30°C - 25°C = 5°C

Heat absorbed by the water :  Q'

Q'=2000 g\times 4.184 J/g^oC\times 5^oC=41,840 J

Heat released on 3.0 g sample of a marshmallows= -Q' = -41,840 J

Heat released on 1.0 g sample of a marshmallows : q

q =\frac{-Q'}{3} = \frac{-41,840 J}{3}=-13,946.67 J

Heat released on  combustion of 1.0 gram of marshmallows -13,946.67 J.

-20,920 J. > -13,946.67 J

The combustion of 1.0 g of cashew releases more energy than the combustion of 1.0 g of marshmallow.

Q2. Which formula represents a homogeneous mixture?
bija089 [108]

Answer:

D) HCl(aq)

Explanation:

A homogeneous mixture can be defined as any liquid, solid or gaseous mixture which has an identical or uniform composition and properties throughout any given sample of the mixture. In Chemistry, all solutions are considered to be a homogeneous mixture.

In this scenario, the chemical formula which represents a homogeneous mixture is aqueous hydrogen chloride, HCl(aq). The aqueous hydrogen chloride is a homogeneous mixture of water and hydrogen chloride. This ultimately implies that, aqueous hydrogen chloride HCl(aq) is a solution of hydrogen chloride in water and it is commonly referred to as Hydrochloric acid.

Given by the chemical equation;

HCl(aq) + H_{2}O(l)  →  H_{3}O^{+} (aq) + Cl_{−}(aq)

How many significant digits are in 89015
Lilit [14]

Answer:

Total 5 significant digits.

Explanation:

Significant digits are the numbers that give a meaningful contribution. For example, digit 013 has the 2  significant digits and zero is not a significant digit because digits 1 and 3 give meaningful contribution but digit zero does not value meaningful contribution. Similarly, the 89015 has a total of 5 significant digits and these digits are the 8, 9, 0, 1,  and 5.
