Answer:
the correct answer to your question is 20
Answer:
% composition O = 19.9%
% composition Cu = 80.1%
Explanation:
Given data:
Total mass of compound = 3.12 g
Mass of copper = 2.50 g
Mass of oxygen = 3.12 - 2.50 = 0.62 g
% composition = ?
Solution:
Formula:
<em>% composition = ( mass of element/ total mass)×100</em>
% composition Cu = (2.50 g / 3.12 g)×100
% composition Cu = 0.80 ×100
% composition Cu = 80.1%
For oxygen:
<em>% composition = ( mass of element/ total mass)×100</em>
% composition O = (0.62 g / 3.12 g)×100
% composition O = 0.199 ×100
% composition O = 19.9%
Heat capacity of aluminium = 0.900 J/g°C
While heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/g°C
Heat = heat gained by water + heat gained by aluminium
Heat gained by water = 100 × 4.186 × 30.5
= 12767.3 Joules
Heat gained by aluminium = 15 × 0.9 × 30.5
= 411.75 Joules
Heat required = 13179.05 Joules or 13.179 kJoules
