A 248-g piece of copper is dropped into 390 mL of water at 22.6 °C. The final temperature of the water was measured as 39.9 °C.

Calculate the initial temperature of the piece of copper. Assume that all heat transfer occurs between the copper and the water.

Answer:

The answer to your question is: Initial temperature of copper = 67.1°C

Explanation:

Data

mass Copper = 248 g

volume Water = 390 ml

T1 water = 22.6°C

T2           = 39.9°C

T1 copper = ?

Specific heat water = 1 cal/g°C

Specific heat copper = 0.092 cal/g°C

Formula       copper             water

Heat is negative for copper because it releases heat

                  - mCp(T2 - T1) = mCp(T2 - T1)                  

                  - (248)(39.9 - T1) = 390 (1)((39.9 - 22.6)           Substitution

                 -9895.2 + 248T1 = 390(17.3)                             Simplification

                 -9895.2 + 248T1 = 6747

                 248 T1 = 6747 + 9895.2

                 248 T1 = 16642.2

                 T1 = 16642.2 / 248

                 T1 = 67.1 °C                                                         Result

For the balanced chemical reaction
musickatia [10]

Answer:

150

Explanation:

  • C₄H₂OH + 6O2 → 4CO2 + 5H₂O

We can <u>find the equivalent number of O₂ molecules for 100 molecules of CO₂</u> using a <em>conversion factor containing the stoichiometric coefficients of the balanced reaction</em>, as follows:

  • 100 molecules CO₂ * \frac{6moleculesO_2}{4moleculesCO_2} = 150 molecules O₂

150 molecules of O₂ would produce 100 molecules of CO₂.

Isomers have the same physical properties because the chemical formulas are identical. True False
Luda [366]
The statement is False.
The molecular (chemical) formulas are same in case of isomers but the arrangement of atoms is different in them. The physical properties are determined by the arrangement of atoms within the molecule.

Since the arrangement of atoms is different in case of isomers, the Physical Properties will also be different.
