Answer:

The energy transferred is  28.5  j

calculation

energy is calculate  MCΔT  formula  where,

M(mass)= 6.30  grams

C(specific heat capacity)= 0.377 j/g

ΔT(change in temperature)= 32.0c- 20 c= 12 c

Energy is therefore= 6.30 g   x 0.377  j/g /c x   12 c =28.5 j

6.45 g of C6H12O6 is burned in a bomb calorimeter containing 950. g of water and the temperature goes from 35.0∘C to 42.3∘C. If

Answer:

q_{rxn}=-488.86\frac{kJ}{mol}

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since this calorimetry problems can by analyzed by figuring out that the heat lost due to the combustion of C6H12O6 is gained by the water and the calorimeter which undergo the mentioned temperature rise, we can write:

Q_{rxn}=-(m_wC_w+C_c)(T_2-T_1)

Thus, by plugging in the given data, we obtain:

Q_{rxn}=-(950.0g*4.184\frac{J}{g\°C} +933\frac{J}{\°C})(42.3\°C-35.0\°C)\\\\Q_{rxn}=-17.5kJ

Next, we compute the moles of C6H12O6 by using its molar mass (180.18 g/mol) as shown below:

n=6.45g*\frac{1mol}{180.18g} =0.0358mol

Thus, the value for q of the reaction turns out:

q_{rxn}=\frac{Q_{rxn}}{n} \\\\q_{rxn}=\frac{17.5kJ}{0.0358mol} \\\\q_{rxn}=-488.86\frac{kJ}{mol}

Best regards!

What property do all of the group 18 elements have that make them stand out from other elements?
matrenka [14]
They are very stable (not reactive).

This is because their outer shell has a total of 8 valence electrons. All elements strive to get towards a full outer shell, but since these elements already have a full outer shell, they are fairly unreactive.
