A geochemist in the field takes a 36.0 mL sample of water from a rock pool lined with crystals of a certain mineral compound X.

He notes the temperature of the pool, 170 C, and caps the sample carefully. Back in the lab, the geochemist first dilutes the sample with distilled water to 500. mL. Then he filters it and evaporates all the water under vacuum. Crystals of X are left behind. The researcher washes, dries and weighs the crystals. They weigh 3.96 g.
Using only the information above, can you calculate yes the solubility of X in water at 17.0 C? If you said yes, calculate it.

Answer:

solubility of X in water at 17.0 ^{0}\textrm{C} is 0.11 g/mL.

Explanation:

Yes, the solubility of X in water at 17.0 ^{0}\textrm{C} can be calculated using the information given.

Let's assume solubility of X in water at 17.0 ^{0}\textrm{C} is y g/mL

The geochemist ultimately got 3.96 g of crystals of X after evaporating the diluted solution made by diluting the 36.0 mL of stock solution.

So, solubility of X in 1 mL of water = y g

Hence, solubility of X in 36.0 mL of water = 36y g

So, 36y = 3.96

   or, y = \frac{3.96}{36} = 0.11

Hence solubility of X in water at 17.0 ^{0}\textrm{C} is 0.11 g/mL.

We can use two equations for this problem.<span>

t1/2 = ln 2 / λ = 0.693 / λ
Where t1/2 is the half-life of the element and λ is decay constant.

20 days = 0.693 / λ 
λ   = 0.693 / 20 days        (1) 

Nt = Nο eΛ(-λt)                (2)

Where Nt is atoms at t time, No is the initial amount of substance, λ is decay constant and t is the time taken.
t = 40 days</span>

<span>No = 200 g

From (1) and (2),
Nt =  200 g eΛ(-(0.693 / 20 days) 40 days)
<span>Nt = 50.01 g</span></span><span>

</span>Hence, 50.01 grams of isotope will remain after 40 days.

A 50.00 g sample of an unknown metal is heated to 45.00°C. It is then placed in a coffee-cup calorimeter filled with water. The
True [87]
First, in order to calculate the specific heat capacity of the metal in help in identifying it, we must find the heat absorbed by the calorimeter using:
Energy = mass * specific heat capacity * change in temperature
Q = 250 * 1.035 * (11.08 - 10)
Q = 279.45 cal/g

Next, we use the same formula for the metal as the heat absorbed by the calorimeter is equal to the heal released by the metal.

-279.45 = 50 * c * (11.08 - 45) [minus sign added as energy released]
c = 0.165

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.165 cal/gC
