Answer:
The initial temperature of the metal is 84.149 °C.
Explanation:
The heat lost by the metal will be equivalent to the heat gain by the water.
- (msΔT)metal = (msΔT)water
-32.5 grams × 0.365 J/g°C × ΔT = 105.3 grams × 4.18 J/g °C × (17.3 -15.4)°C
-ΔT = 836.29/12.51 °C
-ΔT = 66.89 °C
-(T final - T initial) = 66.89 °C
T initial = 66.89 °C + T final
T initial = 66.89 °C + 17.3 °C
T initial = 84.149 °C.
<h2>b is the correct answer</h2>
according In my course I studying it all
Sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid are not good substitute for sodium azide in airbags since the require more mass and produce less gas.
<h3>Which is the better chemical for an airbag?</h3>
The chemical equation for the production of nitrogen gas from sodium azide is given below:
1 mole or 66 go of sodium azide produces 3 moles or 67.2 L of nitrogen gas.
The equation for the production of carbon dioxide from sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid is given below:
- Na₂CO₃ + CH₃COOH → CH₃COONa + CO₂ + H₂O
1 mole, 106 g of Na₂CO₃ and 1 mole, 82 g of CH₃COOH are required to produce 1 mole or 22.4 L of CO₂.
The mass of sodium azide required is less than that of sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid required. Also, sodium azide produces a greater volume of gas. Therefore, sodium bicarbonate and acetic acid are not good substitute for sodium azide in airbags.
In conclusion, sodium azide is a better choice in airbags.
