An unknown piece of metal weighing 95.0 g is heated to 98.0°C. It is dropped into 250.0 g of water at 23.0°C. When equilibrium i

s reached, the temperature of the water and piece of metal is 29.0°C. Determine the specific heat of the metal. Assume the heat capacity of the container, a styrofoam cup, is negligible.

Answer:

C_{metal}=126.6\frac{J}{g\°C}

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, when two substances at different temperature are put in contact and an equilibrium temperature is attained, we can evidence that the heat lost by the hot substance (metal) is gained by the cold substance (water) and we can write:

Q_{metal}=-Q_{water}

Which can be also written as:

m_{metal}C_{metal}(T_{EQ}-T_{metal})=-m_{water}C_{water}(T_{EQ}-T_{water})

Thus, since we need the specific heat of the metal, we solve for it as shown below:

C_{metal}=\frac{m_{water}C_{water}(T_{EQ}-T_{water})}{-m_{metal}(T_{EQ}-T_{metal})} \\\\C_{metal}=\frac{250.0g*4.184\frac{J}{g\°C}(29.0\°C-98.0\°C)}{95.0g(29.0\°C-23.0\°C)} \\\\C_{metal}=126.6\frac{J}{g\°C}

Best regards.

state the behaviour of equilibrium , of ammonia is removed from the reaction mixture . Explain your answer
OLEGan [10]

Equilibrium

N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) ⇔ 2NH₃(g)

If the concentration of the reactants is added, the system will reduce the concentration of the reactants by shifting towards the products and vice versa if the concentration of the reactants is decreased the system will shift towards the reactants.

ammonia is removed from the reaction mixture ⇒ it means the ammonia is reduced then the equilibrium shifts to the right
