How much heat must be transferred to 1600 g of iron to change the iron's
1 answer:
Answer:
A. 8600 J
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Thermochemistry</u>
Specific Heat Formula: q = mcΔT
- q is heat (in J)
- m is mass (in g)
- c is specific heat (in J/g °C)
- ΔT is change in temperature (in °C)
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[Given] <em>m</em> = 1600 g
[Given] ΔT = 214 °C - 202 °C = 12 °C
[Given] <em>c</em> = 0.450 J/g °C
[Solve] <em>q</em>
<u>Step 2: Find Heat</u>
- Substitute in variables [Specific Heat Formula]: q = (1600 g)(0.450 J/g °C)(12 °C)
- Multiply [Cancel out units]: q = (720 J/°C)(12 °C)
- Multiply [Cancel out units]: q = 8640 J
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs as our lowest.</em>
8640 J ≈ 8600 J

I’m distilled water all of the dissolved substances mixed in water have been removed by evaporation.
Answer:

Explanation:
1. Calculate the work
w = - pΔV = -4.3 atm × (43 L - 20 L) = -4.3 × 23 L·atm = -98.9 L·atm
2. Convert litre-atmospheres to joules

The negative sign indicates that the work was done against the surroundings.
The difference is due to the fact that calcium chloride has stronger intermolecular forces than water.
