A chemist carefully measures the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a 278.0g sample of C5H12S from 0.8degree cels

ius to 15.9 degree celsius . The experiment shows that 8.46X10^3J of heat are needed. What can the chemist report for the molar heat capacity of C5H12S ? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

The answer to your question is    C = 2.01 J/g°C

Explanation:

Data

mass = m = 278 g

Temperature 1 = T1 = 0.8°C

Temperature 2 = T2 = 15.9 °C

Heat = Q = 8.46 x 10³ J

Heat capacity = C = ?

Process

1.- Write the formula to calculate the heat

        Q = mC(T2 - T1)

2.- Solve for C

        C = Q / m(T2 - T1)

3.- Substitution

         C = 8.46 x 10³ / 278 (15.9 - 0.8)

4.- Simplification

          C = 8.46 x 10³ / 4197.8

5.- Result

          C = 2.01 J/g°C

7<br>State two signification of melting?​
Juliette [100K]
The two liquids are different and so the melting points are different only because one represents an intermediate stage. It was a melting-point suppression effect, just like salt and ice, but it was much larger than anyone on the team had thought possible.

Explain how to use a graph to show whether or not the speed of an object is constant.
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

A horizontal line on a speed-time graph represents a constant speed. A sloping line on a speed-time graph represents an acceleration. The sloping line shows that the speed of the object is changing. The object is either speeding up or slowing down.

Elements that have the following qualities: Lustrous, Solid at Room Temperatures, They react and form Basic Compounds, Great con
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

They are classified as METALS.

Explanation:

Elements are simple substances that cannot be chemically broken down into smaller substances. Based on different characteristics, they are classified into 3 namely:

- metals

- non metals and

- metalloid( mainly act as semi- conductor).

METALS are the type of elements that loses electrons to form positive ion, that is, they are electropositive elements. They are distinguished by the following characteristics:

- LUSTROUS: they have the ability to reflect light from its surface.

- At room temperature: Metals are solid are room temperature with the exception of Mercury which is liquid at room temperature.

- They react and form Basic Compounds

- Great conductor: most metals are great conductors of heat and electricity because they possess free electrons.

- Melting Point: they have high melting points.

1. Complete the following
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{0.603 mol}}

Explanation:

We must do the conversions

mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ ⟶ moles of C₆H₁₂O₆ ⟶ moles of O₂

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

Mᵣ:        180.16

           C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ ⟶ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

m/g:        18.1

(a) Moles of C₆H₁₂O₆

\text{Moles of C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6} = \text{18.1 g C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}\times \dfrac{\text{1 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}}{\text{180.16 g C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}}\\\\= \text{0.1005 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}

b) Moles of O₂

\text{Moles of O}_{2} =\text{0.1005 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6} \times \dfrac{\text{6 mol O}_{2}}{\text{1 mol C$_{6}$H$_{12}$O}_{6}} = \text{0.603 mol O}_{2}\\\\\text{The reaction requires $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.603 mol}}$ of oxygen}
