If an ice cube melts at 0oC but water also freezes at 0oC, what is the difference between melting and freezing in terms of (a) t

zalisa [80]

The energy involved in melting in freezing is heat, At 0 degrees Celsius ice is at an equilibrium where the heat energy absorbed during melting (endothermic) and heat energy dispersed during freezing (exothermic). When ice melts its absorbs heat energy to change states, when water freezes to ice it dispersed heat energy so that the particles can move slow enough to be almost frozen, but still very small vibrations throughout the ice. Particles in the frozen state are packed tightly and help together by a crystal lattice and IMF's, liquid is free flowing with free floating particles that can move freely from one another particle.

Compute the molar enthalpy of combustion of glucose (C6 H12O6 ): C6 H12O6 (s) + 6 O2 (g) → 6 CO2 (g) + 6 H2 O (g) Given that com

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The molar enthalpy of combustion of glucose is -2819.3 kJ/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of glucose = 0.305 grams

Combustion of 0.305 grams causes a raise of 6.30 °C

Calorimeter has a heat capacity of 755 J/°C

Molar mass of glucose = 180.2 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

C6H12O6 (s) + 6O2 (g) → 6CO2 (g) + 6H2O (g)

Step 3:

ΔH = (m * C * ΔT + c(calorimeter) * ΔT)

with m = mass of the solutin = 0.305 grams

with C = heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C

with ΔT = the change in temperature = 6.30 °C

with c(calorimeter) = 755 J/°C

ΔH = 0.305 * 4.184 *6.30 + 755 * 6.30 = 4764.5 J ( negative because it's exothermic)

Step 4: Calculate moles of glucose

Moles glucose = mass glucose / Molar mass glucose

Moles glucose = 0.305 grams / 180.2 g/mol

Moles glucose = 0.00169 moles

Step 5: Calculate molar enthalpy

Molar enthalpy = -4764.5 J / 0.00169 moles

Molar enthalpy = - 2819254.2 J/moles = -2819.3 kJ/moles

The molar enthalpy of combustion of glucose is -2819.3 kJ/mol

What acids in alcohol make it evaporate

fgiga [73]

The acids found in alcohol that make it evaporate are called organic acids.

An organic acid is an organic compound that has acidic properties. There are two types: one has a carboxyl (COOH) group, and the other type has a phenol group.

The most common organic acids are those with a carboxyl group and include acetic acid, formic acid, lactic acid and all fatty acids. Perfumes include organic acid in their composition to make them volatile. Volatile substances evaporate easily, and this is important for perfumes. They need to dissipate easily into the surrounding environment and spread their good smell.
