Question

madam [21]

Answer:

The specific heat of the metal is 2.09899 J/g℃.

Explanation:

Given,

For Metal sample,

mass = 13 grams

T = 73°C

For Water sample,

mass = 60 grams

T = 22°C.

When the metal sample and water sample are mixed,

The addition of metal increases the temperature of the water, as the metal is at higher temperature, and the addition of water decreases the temperature of metal. Therefore, heat lost by metal is equal to the heat gained by water.

Since, heat lost by metal is equal to the heat gained by water,

Qlost = Qgain

However,

Q = (mass) (ΔT) (Cp)

(mass) (ΔT) (Cp) = (mass) (ΔT) (Cp)

After mixing both samples, their temperature changes to 27°C.

It implies that , water sample temperature changed from 22°C to 27°C and metal sample temperature changed from 73°C to 27°C.

Since, Specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

Let Cp be the specific heat of the metal.

Substituting values,

(13)(73°C - 27°C)(Cp) = (60)(27°C - 22℃)(4.184)

By solving, we get Cp =

Therefore, specific heat of the metal sample is 2.09899 J/g℃.

8.7 Two products are formed in the following reaction in a 50:50 mixture. Would the resulting solution be optically active

k0ka [10]

Answer:

Yes. The solution would be optically active.

Explanation:

Diastereomer are defined as the image that is non mirror and non -identical. It is made up of two stereoisomers. They are formed when the two stereoisomers or more than two stereoisomers of the compound have the same configuration at the equivalent stereocenters.

In the given context, as the product given is a diastereomeric mixture, the product would have an optical activity in total.

So the answer is Yes.
