g + In a coffee-cup calorimeter, when 3.25 g of NaOH is dissolved in 50.00 g of water initially at 22.0 oC, the temperature of t

he solution increases to 24.8 oC. Calculate the q of the reaction in kJ/mol of NaOH. Assume that the specific heat of the solution is 4.184 J/g oC, and that there is no other heat transfer than that of the solution process itself.

Answer:

THE STANDARD HEAT OF SOLUTION OF SODIUM HYDROXIDE IN WATER IS -7.68 KJ PER MOLE.

Explanation:

Variables:

Mass of NaOH = 3.25 g

Mass of water = 50 g

Initial temperature of water = 22°C = 22 + 273 K = 295 K

Final temperature of the reaction mixture = 24.8 °C = 24.8 + 273 K = 297.8 K

Assuming that:

1. specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g °C

2. total mass of the reaction mixture = 50 g + 3.25 g = 53.25 g

3. the rise in temperature = (297.8 K - 295 K ) = 2.8 K

4. Molar mass of sodium hydroxide = ( 23 + 16 + 1) = 40 g/mol

5. number of mole of sodium hydroxide = mass / molar mass

n = 3.25 g / 40 g/mol

n = 0.08125 moles

The rise in temperature for the reaction mixture produces how much of heat:

Heat = mass * specific heat * change in temperature

Heat = 53.25 * 4.184  * 2.8

Heat = 623.8344 J of heat.

Equation of reaction:

NaOH + H2O -------> NaOH + H2O + Heat

This is not a reaction but a dissolution as sodium hydroxide is very soluble in water and this reaction is exothermic where heat is given off.

So since 3.25 g having 0.08125 moles produces 623.8344 J of heat, 1 mole of the sodium hydroxide used will produce:

0.08125 mole of sodium hydroxide = 623.8344 J of heat

1 mole of sodium hydroxide = ( 623.8344 / 0.08125 J of heat

= 7677.96 J of heat per mole of sodium hydroxide.

= 7.68 kJ of heat

So therefore, the standard heat of solution of sodium hydroxide in water is -7.68 kJ of heat since its an exothermic reaction.

The energy of the universe is constant. That what mentioned by the first law of thermodynamics,
Goryan [66]

Answer:

No, ΔE does not always equal zero because it refers to the systems internal energy, which is affected by heat and work

Explanation:

According to the first law of thermodynamics, energy is neither created nor destroyed. This implies that the total energy of a system is always a constant.

So, according to the first law of thermodynamics we have that ΔE = q + w. This means that the value of  ΔE depends on q (heat) and  w(work). Hence ΔE is not always zero since it depends on the respective values of q and w.

Explain how carbon’s bonding ability makes it unique.
STatiana [176]

\huge\fcolorbox{red}{pink}{Answer ♥}

The carbon atom is unique among elements in its tendency to form extensive networks of covalent bonds not only with other elements but also with itself. ... Moreover, of all the elements in the second row, carbon has the maximum number of outer shell electrons (four) capable of forming covalent bonds.

Hope it helps uh ✌️✌️✌️
