Answer:

925.66 J/K

Explanation:

Applying,

Q = CΔt............. Equation 1

Where Q = amount of heat, C = heat capacity of the calorimeter, Δt = rise in temperature.

make C the subject of the equation

C = Q/Δt.............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: Q = 3.86 kJ = 3860 J, Δt = 4.17K

Substitute into equation 2

C = 3860/4.17

C = 925.66 J/K

Water's heat of fusion is 80. cal/g , its specific heat is 1.0calg⋅∘C, and its heat of vaporization is 540 cal/g . A canister is
Pani-rosa [81]
<span>294400 cal The heating of the water will have 3 phases 1. Melting of the ice, the temperature will remain constant at 0 degrees C 2. Heating of water to boiling, the temperature will rise 3. Boiling of water, temperature will remain constant at 100 degrees C So, let's see how many cal are needed for each phase. We start with 320 g of ice and 100 g of liquid, both at 0 degrees C. We can ignore the liquid and focus on the ice only. To convert from the solid to the liquid, we need to add the heat of fusion for each gram. So multiply the amount of ice we have by the heat of fusion. 80 cal/g * 320 g = 25600 cal Now we have 320 g of ice that's been melted into water and the 100 g of water we started with, resulting in 320 + 100 = 420 g of water at 0 degrees C. We need to heat that water to 100 degrees C 420 * 100 = 42000 cal Finally, we have 420 g of water at the boiling point. We now need to pump in an additional 540 cal/g to boil it all away. 420 g * 540 cal/g = 226800 cal So the total number of cal used is 25600 cal + 42000 cal + 226800 cal = 294400 cal</span>

What general trend applies to solubility?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Basically, solubility increases with temperature. It is the case for most of the solvents. The situation is though different for gases. With increase of the temperature they became less soluble in each other and in water, but more soluble in organic solvents.

When can all the coefficients in a balanced equation represent volume ratios? when reactants and products are solids at stp when
Alexxx [7]

Answer: when reactants and products are gases at STP.


Justification:


1) STP stands for standard temperature (0°) and pressure (1 atm).


2) According to the kinetic molecular theory of the gases, and as per Avogadro's principle, equal volumes of gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules.



3) Since the coefficients in a balanced chemical equation represent number of moles, when reactants and products are gases at the same temperature and pressure, the mole ratios are the same that the volume ratios, and then the coefficients of the chemical equation represent the volume ratios.
