Answer:

The amount of heat that is released is -925.2 cal

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

Sensible heat is the amount of heat that a body can receive or release without affecting its molecular structure, that is, it does not change the state (solid, liquid, gaseous). In other words, sensible heat is the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state.

The equation that allows to calculate heat exchanges is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

Where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, constituted by a substance of specific heat c and where ΔT is the variation in temperature.

In this case:

c= 1 $\frac{cal}{g*C}$
m= 25.7 g
ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= 49 °C - 85 °C= -36 °C

Replacing:

Q= 1 $\frac{cal}{g*C}$ *25.7 g* (-36 C)

Solving:

Q= -925.2 cal

<u><em>The amount of heat that is released is -925.2 cal</em></u>

What’s the mass of 2.80 mol of ca

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

112.22 g

Explanation:

mass = no. of moles x atomic mass

From the periodic table, we can see the atomic mass of Ca is 40.078.

Therefore,

mass = 2.80 x 40.078

= 112.22g (corrected to 2 decimal places.)

How many grams of CuF2 are needed to make a 2.8 M solution

11111nata11111 [884]

Molarity is given as,

Molarity = Moles / Volume of Solution ----- (1)

Also, Moles is given as,

Moles = Mass / M.mass

Substituting value of moles in eq. 1,

Molarity = Mass / M.mass × Volume

Solving for Mass,

Mass = Molarity × M.mass × Volume ---- (2)

Data Given;

Molarity = 2.8 mol.L⁻¹

M.mass = 101.5 g.mol⁻¹

Volume = 1 L (I have assumed it because it is not given)

Putting values in eq. 2,

Mass = 2.8 mol.L⁻¹ × 101.5 g.mol⁻¹ × 1 L

Mass = 284.2 g of CuF₂
