A 1.8 g sample of octane C8H18 was burned in a bomb calorimeter and the temperature of 100 g of water increased from 21.36 C to

28.78 C. Heat capacity of water is 4.18 J/g C. What is the heat of combustion per gram of octane? Per mole of octane?

Answer:

HEAT OF COMBUSTION PER GRAM OF OCTANE IS 1723.08 J OR 1.72 KJ/G OF HEAT

HEAT OFF COMBUSTION PER MOLE OF OCTANE IS 196.4 KJ/ MOL OF HEAT

Explanation:

Mass of water = 100 g

Change in temperature = 28.78 °C - 21.36°C = 7.42 °C

Heat capcacity of water = 4.18 J/g°C

Mass of octane = 1.8 g

Molar mass of octane = C8H18 = (12 * 8 + 1 * 18) g/mol= 96 + 18 = 114 g/mol

First is to calculate the heat evolved when 100 g of water is used:

Heat = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature

Heat = 100 * 4.18 * 7.42

Heat = 3101.56 J

In other words, 3101.56 J of heat was evolved from the reaction of 1.8 g octane with water.

Heat of combustion of octane per gram:

1.8 g of octane produces 3101.56 J of heat

1 g of octane will produce ( 3101.56 * 1 / 1.8)

= 1723.08 J of heat

So, heat of combustion of octane per gram is 1723.08 J

Heat of combustion per mole:

1.8 g of octane produces 3101.56 J of heat

1 mole of octane will produce X J of heat

1 mole of octane = 114 g/ mol of octane

So we have:

1.8 g of octane = 3101.56 J

114 g of octane = (3101.56 * 114 / 1.8) J of heat

= 196 432.13 J

= 196. 4 kJ of heat

The heat of combustion of octane per mole is 196.4 kJ /mol.

Mass of water = 100 g

Change in temperature = 28.78 °C - 21.36°C = 7.42 °C

Heat capcacity of water = 4.18 J/g°C

Mass of octane = 1.8 g

Molar mass of octane = C8H18 = (12 * 8 + 1 * 18) g/mol= 96 + 18 = 114 g/mol

First is to calculate the heat evolved when 100 g of water is used:

Heat = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature

Heat = 100 * 4.18 * 7.42

Heat = 3101.56 J

Match each term below with its definition or description.
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

1. Equivalence point

2. Direct titration

3. Primary standard

4. Titrand

5. Back titration

6. Standard solution

7. Titrant

8. Indirect titration

9. End point

10. Indicator

Explanation:

1. The equivalence point is the tiration point at which the quantity or moles  of the added titrant is sufficient or equal to the quantity or moles of the analyte for the neutralization of the solution of the analyte.

2. Direct titration is a method of quantitatively determining the contents of a substance

3. A primary standard is an easily weigh-able representative of the mount of moles contained in a substance

4. A titrand is the substance of unknown concentration which is to be determined

5. The titration method that uses a given amount of an excess reagent to determine the concentration of an analyte is known as back titration

6. A standard solution is a solution of accurately known concentration

7. A titrant is a solution that has a known concentration and which is titrated unto another solution to determine the concentration of the second solution

8. Indirect titration is the process of performing a titration in athe reverse order

9. The end point is the point at which the indicator indicates that the equivalent quantities of the reagents required for a complete reaction has been added

10 An indicator is a compound used to visually determine the pH of a solution.

What is the arrangement of the outer planets? What effect does their placement have on the planets?
Ahat [919]
The solar system's outer planets include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. Their arrangement does not have any effect on the rest of the planets in the solar system, except for the fact that these planets are not in resonance to each other. 

Hope this helps!
