A 100.0g sample of tin is heated to 100.0 oC (Celsius) and is placed in a coffee cup calorimeter containing 150. g of water at 2

5.0 oC. After the metal cools, the final temperature of the metal and the water is 27.4 oC. Calculate the specific heat capacity of tin from these experimental data, assuming that no heat escapes to the surroundings or is transferred to the calorimeter. Specific heat of water

Explanation:

It is known that specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g^{o}C and atomic mass of tin is 118.7 g/mol. For the given situation,

                 Q_{lost} = Q_{gained}

Let us assume that,

               m_{1} = mass of Sn

               m_{2} = mass of H_{2}O  

Therefore, heat energy expression for heat lost and gained is as follows.

           Q_{lost} = Q_{gained}

      m_{1}C_{1}(T_{2} - T_{1}) = m_{2}C_{2}(T_{1} - T_{2})

   100 g \times C_{1} \times (100^{o}C - 27.4^{o}C) = 150 g \times 4.184 /g^{o}C \times (27.4^{o}C - 25^{o}C)

           7260C_{1} = 150 \times 4.184 \times 2.4

                 C_{1} = \frac{1506.24}{7260}

                              = 0.207 J/g^{o}C

For, 118.7 g the specific heat of tin will be calculated as follows.

               C_{1} = 0.207 J/g^{o}C \times 118.7 g

                          = 24.5 J/mol^{o}C

Thus, we can conclude that specific heat of tin is 24.5 J/mol^{o}C.

AL(OH)3+ HCI—> ALCL3 +H2O
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

i dont know what you're asking here. But if you're asking what it is then:

Explanation:

Aluminum Hydroxide + Hydrogen Chloride = Aluminum Chloride + Water

Al and Oh3: Aluminum Hydroxide

H and Cl: Hydrogen Chloride

Al and Cl3: Aluminum Chloride

H2O: water

btw the first letter of every element should be capitalized. While the second and theird are lowercased.

Two closed vessels contain chlorine gas at the same conditions of temperature and
wariber [46]

Answer:12 mol

Explanation: both vessels are at the same temp and pressure (and the pressure is low and/or the temperature high).

6.7mol per 1.3L = 6.7/1.3 mol/L

so in 2.33L = 6.7*2.33/1.3 = 12 mol
