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!

In a sample of oxygen gas at room temperature, the average kinetic energy of all the balls stays constant. Which postulate of ki
Levart [38]

Answer:

Collisions between gas particles are elastic; there is no net gain or loss of kinetic energy.

Explanation:

When a gas is paced in a container, the molecules of the gas have little or no intermolecular interaction between them. There is a lot of space between the molecules of the gas.

The gas molecules move at very high speed and collide with each other and with the walls of container.

The collision of these particles with each other is perfectly elastic hence the kinetic energy of the colliding gas particles do not change.
