Rubbing alcohol is a solution
The final temperature, t₂ = 30.9 °C
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
24.0 kJ of heat = 24,000 J
Mass of calorimeter = 1.3 kg = 1300 g
Cs = 3.41 J/g°C
t₁= 25.5 °C
Required
The final temperature, t₂
Solution
Q = m.Cs.Δt
Q out (combustion of compound) = Q in (calorimeter)
24,000 = 1300 x 3.41 x (t₂-25.5)
t₂ = 30.9 °C
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
Mg + 2HCl ---> MgCl₂ + H₂
stoichiometry of HCl to MgCl₂ is 2:1
we have been told that Mg is in excess therefore HCl is the limiting reactant
number of HCl moles reacted - 0.100 mol/L x 0.0256 L = 0.00256 mol
according to molar ratio, number of MgCl₂ moles formed - 0.00256/2
Therefore number of MgCl₂ moles formed - 0.00128 mol
mass of MgCl formed - 0.00128 mol x 95.20 g/mol = 0.122 g
Essentially the term binary, meaning each different thing has two components. Binary ionic compounds have two ionic compounds, binary molecular compounds have two molecular compounds, and binary acids have two acids.
