A calorimeter contains reactants and a substance to absorb the heat absorbed. The initial temperature (before the reaction) of the heat absorbent is measured and then the final temperature (after the reaction) is also measured. The absorbent's specific heat capacity and mass are also known. Given all of this data, the equation:
Q = mcΔT
To find the heat released.
Answer:
Mass = 9.58 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of Zn = 2g
Theoretical yield of ZnI₂ = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
Zn + I₂ → ZnI₂
Number of moles of Zn:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 2g / 65.38 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.03 mol
Now we will compare the moles of Zn and ZnI₂.
Zn : ZnI₂
1 : 1
0.03 : 0.03
Mass of ZnI₂:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.03 mol × 319.22 g/mol
Mass = 9.58 g
Answer:
Explanation:
The formula relating the mass m of a sample and the heat q to vaporize it is
q = mL, where L is the latent heat of vaporization.
