What is the molecule shown below?

179.1 g of water is in a Styrofoam calorimeter of negligible heat capacity. The initial T of the water is 16.1oC. After 306.9 g

taurus [48]

Answer:

the specific heat of the unknown compound is $c_u=0.412J/g \cdot C$

Explanation:

Generally the change in temperature of water is evaluated as

$\Delta T = T_2 -T_1$

Substituting 16.1°C for $T_1$ and 27.4°C for $T_2$

$\Delta T = 27.4 - 16.1$

$=11.3^oC$

Generally the change in temperature of unknown compound is evaluated as

$\Delta T_u = T_3 -T_2$

Substituting 27.4°C for $T_2$ and 94.3°C for $T_3$

$\Delta T = 94.3 - 27.4$

$=66.9^oC$

Since there is an increase in temperature then heat is gained by water and this can be evaluated as

$H_w = mc_w \Delta T$

Substituting 179.1 g for m , 4.18 J/g.C for $c_w$ (specific heat of water)

$H_w = 4.18 * 179.1 * 11.3$

$= 8459.6J$

Since there is a decrease in temperature then heat is lost by unknown compound and this can be evaluated as

$H_u = m_uc_u \Delta T_u$

By conservation of energy law

Heat lost = Heat gained

Substituting 306.9 g for $m_u$ , 8459.6J for $H_u$

$8459.6 = 306.9 * c_u * 66.9$

Therefore $c_u = \frac{8459.6}{308.9 *66.9}$

$=0.412J/g \cdot C$

Which factors must be equal when a reversible chemical process reaches equilibrium?

Anon25 [30]

The concentration of the reactants and products remain constant. Because the rates of the forward and reverse reaction are equal there is no net change to the amount of reactants or products produced.May 19, 2011

In an experiment, a 0.5297 g sample of diphenylacetylene (C14H10) is burned completely in a bomb calorimeter. The calorimeter is

V125BC [204]

Answer:

the Molar heat of Combustion of diphenylacetylene $(C_{14}H_{10})$ = $-6.931 *10^3 \ kJ/mol$

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of diphenylacetylene $(C_{14}H_{10})$ = 0.5297 g

Molar Mass of diphenylacetylene $(C_{14}H_{10})$ = 178.21 g/mol

Then number of moles of diphenylacetylene $(C_{14}H_{10})$ = $\frac{mass}{molar \ mass}$

= $\frac{0.5297 \ g }{178.24 \ g/mol}$

= 0.002972 mol

By applying the law of calorimeter;

Heat liberated by 0.002972 mole of diphenylacetylene $(C_{14}H_{10})$ = Heat absorbed by $H_2O$ + Heat absorbed by the calorimeter

Heat liberated by 0.002972 mole of diphenylacetylene $(C_{14}H_{10})$ = msΔT + cΔT

= 1369 g × 4.184 J g⁻¹°C⁻¹ × (26.05 - 22.95)°C + 916.9 J/°C (26.05 - 22.95)°C

= 17756.48 J + 2842.39 J

= 20598.87 J

Heat liberated by 0.002972 mole of diphenylacetylene $(C_{14}H_{10})$ = 20598.87 J

Heat liberated by 1 mole of diphenylacetylene $(C_{14}H_{10})$ will be = $\frac{20598.87 \ J}{0.002972 \ mol}$

= 6930979.139 J/mol

= 6930.98 kJ/mol

Since heat is liberated ; Then, the Molar heat of Combustion of diphenylacetylene $(C_{14}H_{10})$ = $-6.931 *10^3 \ kJ/mol$
