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

What volume. In liters, of H2O(g) measured at STP is produced by the combustion of 15.63 g of natural gas (CH4) according to the
fomenos

Answer:

V = 43.95 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CH₄ decomposed = 15.63 g

Volume of H₂O produced at STP = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

CH₄ + 2O₂    →       2H₂O  + CO₂

Number of moles of CH₄:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 15.63 g/ 16 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.98 mol

Now we will compare the moles of H₂O with CH₄.

                         CH₄              :              H₂O

                           1                 :                2

                        0.98             :            2×0.98 = 1.96 mol

Volume of hydrogen:

PV = nRT

1 atm × V = 1.96 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 273.15 K

V = 43.95atm.L / 1atm

V = 43.95 L

Answer:

11.9 g of nitrogen monoxide

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 6.75 g of NH₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of NH₃ = 6.75 g

Molar mass of NH₃ = 14 + (3×1)

= 14 + 3

= 17 g/mol

Mole of NH₃ =?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of NH₃ = 6.75 / 17

Mole of NH₃ = 0.397 mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of NO produced by the reaction of 0.397 mole of NH₃. This can be obtained as follow:

4NH₃ + 5O₂ —> 4NO + 6H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of NH₃ reacted to produce 4 moles of NO.

Therefore, 0.397 mole of NH₃ will also react to produce 0.397 mole of NO.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 0.397 mole of NO. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of NO = 0.397 mole

Molar mass of NO = 14 + 16 = 30 g/mol

Mass of NO =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of NO = 0.397 × 30

Mass of NO = 11.9 g

Thus, the mass of NO produced is 11.9 g
