First, in order to calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal in help in identifying it, we must find the heat absorbed by the calorimeter using:
Energy = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature
Q = 250 * 1.035 * (11.08 - 10)
Q = 279.45 cal/g
Next, we use the same formula for the metal as the heat absorbed by the calorimeter is equal to the heal released by the metal.
-279.45 = 50 * c * (11.08 - 45) [minus sign added as energy released]
c = 0.165
The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.165 cal/gC
Answer:
The above reaction is an example of <u>alcoholic fermentation</u>.
Explanation:
In alcoholic fermentation, one mole of glucose gets converted into two moles of alcohol, two moles of carbon dioxide and two moles of adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP).
Answer:
(d) Why is the fuel cell in Question (c) described as an alkaline fuel cell? (e) Another type of fuel cell uses methanol instead of hydrogen.
Explanation:
<u>Answer:</u> The moles of carbon dioxide formed in the reaction is 20 moles.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given:
Number of moles of butane = 5.0 moles
The chemical reaction for the combustion of butane follows the equation:

As, oxygen is present in excess. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.
Thus, butane is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.
By stoichiometry of the reaction:
2 moles of butane produces 8 moles of carbon dioxide.
So, 5 moles of butane will produce =
of carbon dioxide.
Hence, the moles of carbon dioxide formed in the reaction is 20 moles.
