Answer:
The initial temperature was 58.4°C
Explanation:
Given the following data:
initial volume = V₁ = 380 mL = 0.38 L
final volume = V₂ = 250 mL = 0.25 L
final temperature = T₂ = -55°C = 218 K
According to Charles's law, the volume of a gas is <em>directly proportional to the temperature</em> (in Kelvin). The mathematical expression is:
V₁/T₁= V₂/T₂
So, we calculate the initial temperature (V₁) as follows:
T₁ = T₂/V₂ x V₁ = 218 K/(0.25 L) x 0.38 L = 331.36 K ≅ 331.4 K
Finally, we convert the initial temperature from K to °C:
T₁= 331.4 K - 273 = 58.4°C
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
0.387 J/g°C
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
- To calculate the amount of heat absorbed or released by a substance we need to know its mass, change in temperature and its specific heat capacity.
- Then to get quantity of heat absorbed or lost we multiply mass by specific heat capacity and change in temperature.
- That is, Q = mcΔT
in our question we are given;
Mass of copper, m as 95.4 g
Initial temperature = 25 °C
Final temperature = 48 °C
Thus, change in temperature, ΔT = 23°C
Quantity of heat absorbed, Q as 849 J
We are required to calculate the specific heat capacity of copper
Rearranging the formula we get
c = Q ÷ mΔT
Therefore,
Specific heat capacity, c = 849 J ÷ (95.4 g × 23°C)
= 0.3869 J/g°C
= 0.387 J/g°C
Therefore, the specific heat capacity of copper is 0.387 J/g°C
Answer:
Explanation:
428 x 10³ Pa = 4.28 x 10⁵ Pa = 4.28 atm
We shall use the gas equation
P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂
7.66 x 10 / ( 273 + 27 ) = 4.28 x 30 / T₂
.255 = 128.4 / T₂
T₂ = 503.53
= 503.53 - 273 = 230.53⁰C .
