A 44.0 g sample of an unknown metal at 99.0 oC was placed in a constant-pressure calorimeter of negligible heat capacity contain

ing 80.0 mL water at 24.0 oC. The final temperature of the system was found to be 28.4 oC. Calculate the Specific heat of the metal if density of water is 1.00 g/ml.

Answer:

C_m=0.474\frac{J}{g\°C}

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since this is a system in which the water is heated up and the metal is cooled down in a calorimeter which is not affected by the heat lose-gain process, we can infer that the heat lost by the metal is gained be water, it means that we can write:

Q_m=-Q_w

Thus, in terms of masses, specific heats and temperatures we can write:

m_mC_m(T_{eq}-T_m)=-m_wC_w(T_{eq}-T_w)

Whereas the equilibrium temperature is the given final temperature of 28.4 °C and we can compute the specific heat of the metal as shown below:

C_m=\frac{-m_wC_w(T_{eq}-T_w)}{m_m(T_{eq}-T_m)}

Plugging the values in and since the density of water is 1.00 g/mL so the mass is 80.0g, we obtain:

C_m=\frac{-80.0g*4.184\frac{J}{g\°C} (28.4\°C-24.0\°C)}{44.0g(28.4\°C-99.0\°C)}\\\\C_m=0.474\frac{J}{g\°C}

Best regards!

A latex balloon at sea level and room temperature (25°C) has a volume of 2.42 L. When the balloon is released by the child holdi
yarga [219]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: V2 = 1.94 l

Explanation:

Data

V1 = 2.42 l

T1 = 25°C

P1 = 1 atm

V2 = ?

T2 = 25 -11 = 14°C

P2 = 1(0.7) = 0.7 atm

Formula

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Clear V2 from the equation

V2 = P1V1T2/ P2T1

V2 = (1)((2.42)(14) / (0.7)(25)

V2 = 33.88 / 17.5

V2 = 1.94 l

Answer:

1) 950 mL

2) 625 mmHg

3) 426 mL

Explanation:

1) This is the relationship between pressure and volume. This relationship looks like this:

P1*V1 = P2*V2

This means the first pressure times the initial volume is equal to the second pressure times the second volume. We are solving for the second volume. First, convert the mmHg to atm and the mL to L.

1 L * 1 atm = 1.053 atm * X

X = 0.95 L or 950 mL

2) This is the same concept as the last one. :) We don't have to convert the mmHg to atm since the answer wants it in mmHg.

750 mmHg * 0.25 L = 0.3 L * X

X = 625 mmHg

3) The relationship between volume and temperature is similar to the one between pressure and temperature (like the problem in your last question). Remember to convert degrees C to Kelvin and mL to L.

V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

0.4 L / 303 K = X / 323 K

X = 0.426 L pr 426 mL

These problems become much easier once you learn the relationships between the different variables (temp, pressure, volume, etc.) When you have a problem like this, I like to first determine what relationship I am dealing with and then write out what I have and what I am solving for. This helps with organizing the problem. Then just solve it like a normal algebra problem. Always remember to convert temp to Kelvin, mL to L, and pressure to atm (unless it wants it in a different unit, then just make sure all the units match).

Good luck with you studies! :)

im making a poster for chemistry. the topic is acid and base. i have to make a creative title to go with the poster. any ideas?
REY [17]
The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: Right now, I haven't seen the poster but there are things that i have in mind. It can be "The Game of Acids and Bases," or you can another one like, "Unity Amidst Diversity."
