Suppose you had a 2.4 g cracker burn down to 1.3 g, which raised the temperature of 50.1 g of water by 12.0 degrees Celsius. How

many kilocalories of heat energy was released by the cracker (or absorbed by the water) per gram of cracker

Answer:

We know that the specific heat of water is:

c = 1cal/g*°C

This means, that we need 1 cal to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1°C

Here, we increased the temperature of 50.1g of water by 12°C

Then the number of calories needed to do this is given by:

x = (mass of water in grams)*(how much increased the temp in °C)*1cal/g*°C

x = (50.1g*12°C)*1cal/g*°C = 601.2 cal

But we want this in Kcal, remember that:

1Kcal = 1000cal

Then:

601.2 cal = (601.2/1000) Kcal = 0.6012 Kcal

Now, for the cracker part, the energy was released by the amount of cracker that was burned.

The original mass was 2.4g

the final mass ios 1.3g

the difference is:

2.4g - 1.3g = 1.1g

This means that 1.1g was the burned mass.

The number of kilocalories of heat per gram released by the cracker is just:

n = (0.6012 Kcal)/(1.1 g) = 0.547 Kcal/g

0.547 kilocalories per gram.

How to convert 250 in scientific notation
cricket20 [7]
In scientific notation, a number is less than ten but more than one.

Move the decimal point from 0, 250.000 <- this is the same as 250 to between 2 and 5.

I had to move two spaces.

2.5^2

I hope this helps!

Determine the approximate amount of potassium hydrogen phthalate, KHP, that you will need to neutralize 6.00 ml of 0.100 M NaOH.
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

potassium hydrogen phthalate KHP MOLAR MASS = 204.233 glmol

to get 1000 ml

Molar concentration = Mass concentration/Molar Mass

mass concentration = molar concentration x molar mass

mass concentration=0.1 M,

molar mass= 204.233 g/mol

so to get 1L

mass conc = 204.233 x 0.1

= 20.4233g  for 1L or 1000 ml

to get 6.00 ml

if 20.4233g is for 1000ml

then to 6.00 ml

= 20.4233 x 6 / 1000

= 0.123g for 6.00 ml

according to the equation below

NaOH(aq) + KHC8H4O4(aq) --> KNaC8H4O4(aq) + H2O(l)

number of moles of NaOH is equal to that of KHP

so the same amount will be needed too, which is

= 0.123g
