Answer:

The specific heat of the material is 0.851 J/g°C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the sample = 100 grams

Amount of heat required = 5104.5 Joules

Initial temperature = 20.0°C

Final temperature = 80.0 °C

Step 2: Calculate the specific heat of the material

Q = m* c¨* ΔT

⇒with Q = the amount of energy = 5104.5 J

⇒with m = the mass of the material = 100 grams

⇒with c = the specific heat of the material = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with ΔT = the change of temperature = T2 - T1 = 80.0 °C - 20.0 °C = 60.0 °C

5104.5 = 100 * c * 60

c = 5104.5 / (100*60)

c =  0.851 J/g°C

The specific heat of the material is 0.851 J/g°C

Answer: 0.85075J/g.K

Explanation:

Mass of the material = 100g

Energy (Q) = 5104.5J

T1 = 20°C = 293K

T2 = 80°C = 353K

Formula for heat energy (Q) = mc ∇T

Q = mc∇T

∇T = T2 - T1

∇T = 353K - 293K = 60K

Q = mc∇T

C = Q / m∇T

C = (5104.5) / (100 * 60)

C = 0.85075 J/gK

The specific heat capacity of the material is 0.85075J/gK.

What gets oxidized in a galvanic cell made with magnesium and zinc electrodes?
ankoles [38]

Answer: Magnesium

Explanation:

Galvanic cell is a device which is used for the conversion of the chemical energy produces in a redox reaction into the electrical energy.

The standard reduction potential for magnesium and zinc are as follows:

E^0_{[Mg^{2+}/Mg]}= -2.37V

E^0_{[Zn^{2+}/Zn]}=-0.76V

Reduction takes place easily if the standard reduction potential is higher (positive) and oxidation takes place easily if the standard reduction potential is less (more negative).

Here Mg undergoes oxidation by loss of electrons, thus act as anode. Zinc undergoes reduction by gain of electrons and thus act as cathode.

Mg\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2e^-

Zn^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Zn

Thus magnesium gets oxidized.

Write the net cell equation for this electrochemical cell. Phases are optional. Do not include the concentrations. Co ( s ) ∣ ∣
Tatiana [17]

Answer: The overall equation will be Co(s)+2Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Co^{2+}(aq)+Ag(s)

Explanation:

The representation is given by writing the anode on left hand side followed by its ion with its molar concentration. It is followed by a salt bridge. Then the cathodic ion with its molar concentration is written and then the cathode.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases.

Anode : Co(s)\rightarrow Co^{2+}(aq)+2e^{-}

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced.

Cathode : Ag^+(aq)+e^{-1}\rightarrow Ag(s)  \times 2

The number of electrons lost must be equal to the number of electrons gained , thus overall equation will be :

Co(s)+2Ag^+(aq)\rightarrow Co^{2+}(aq)+Ag(s)

A scientist measures the standard enthalpy change for the following reaction to be 81.1 kJ :2CO2(g) + 5 H2(g)C2H2(g) + 4 H2O(g)B
posledela

<u>Answer:</u> The enthalpy of the formation of CO_2(g) is coming out to be -410.8 kJ/mol.Z

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as \Delta H^o

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:  

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f(product)]-\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f(reactant)]

For the given chemical reaction:

2CO_2(g)+5H_2(g)\rightarrow C_2H_2(g)+4H_2O(g)

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(C_2H_2(g))})+(4\times \Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(g))})]-[(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2(g))})+(5\times \Delta H^o_f_{(H_2(g))})]

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2O(g))}=-241.8kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2(g))}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(C_2H_2(g))}=226.7kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_{rxn}=81.1kJ

Putting values in above equation, we get:

81.1=[(1\times (226.7)})+(4\times (-241.8))]-[(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2(g))})+(5\times (0))]\\\\\Delta H^o_f_{(CO_2(g))}=-410.8kJ/mol

Hence, the enthalpy of the formation of CO_2(g) is coming out to be -410.8 kJ/mol.
