A student is preparing to perform a series of calorimetry experiments. She first wishes to determine the calorimeter constant (C

cal) for her coffee cup calorimeter. She pours a 50.0 mL sample of water at 345 K into the calorimeter containing a 50.0 mL sample of water at 298 K. She carefully records the final temperature of the water as 317 K. What is the value of Ccal for the calorimeter

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

     V_{1} = 50 ml,      T_{1} = 345 K

     T_{2} = 298 K,      T_{f} = 317 K,

    V_{2} = 50 ml

Now, we will calculate the heat energy as follows.

        Q_{hot} = m \times C_{p} \times (T_{1} - T_{f})

                     = 50 g \times 4.184 \times (345 - 317)

                     = 5857.6 J

       Q_{cold} = m \times C_{p} \times (T_{f} - T_{2})

                     = 50 g \times 4.184 \times (317 - 298)

                     = 3974.8 J

As,   Q_{hot} = -Q_{cold} so there will be loss of heat. And, some heat will go to the calorimeter.

Hence,     Q_{hot} = Q_{cold} + Q_{cal}

                 5857.6 = 3974.8 + Q_{cal}

               Q_{cal} = 1882.8 J

We assume that the temperature of (calorimeter + water) is 298 K. Hence,

                  dT = T_{f} - T_{2}

                        = (317 - 298) K

                        = 19 K

Hence, we will calculate the specific heat as follows.

               C = \frac{Q}{dT}

                   = \frac{1882.8 J}{19}

                   = 99.1 J/K

Thus, we can conclude that the value of C_{cal} for the calorimeter is 99.1 J/K.

How does solubility differ between small versus large carbohydrates? Explain.
EleoNora [17]

Answer with Explanation:

Small and large carbohydrates have<em> diverse structural properties</em>. Such property allow them to have <u>different solubility.</u>

Solubility is a chemical property of a substance that allows it to dissolve in a given solvent.

Carbohydrates are made up of "monosaccharides." These are simple sugars and are considered small carbohydrates. On the contrary, "polysaccharide" is an example of a large carbohydrate.<em><u> Monosaccharides are soluble in water</u></em><em> </em>while<em><u> many polysaccharides are not soluble in water.</u></em>

The high solubility of monosaccharides is mainly due to the presence of hydroxide (OH) groups. These groups are always ready to bond with water (H₂O). Many polysaccharides are not soluble in water because of <em>intermolecular interactions</em> that prevents it from binding with water. Its dissolution process is different when compared to the smaller molecules.

So, this explains the answer.

A student finds that the water's temperature went from 18oC to 38oC. Calculate how many calories are in the peanut.
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

567 calories.

Explanation:

There 567 calories in 100 grams of peanut. In 100 grams of peanut, 49 gram is the fat, 26 grams of protein, 16 grams of carbohydrates, Sodium is 18 mg, Potassium is 705 mg. Calcium is present in peanut about 9%, Iron is 25% , Vitamin B-6 is 15%  and Magnesium is 42% of their total weight. Oil content is high in the Peanut so this is the reason for high calories in peanut. It is a good source of proteins and potassium.
