You perform a distillation to separate a mixture of propylbenzene and cyclohexane, and you obtain 2.9949 grams of cyclohexane (d

ensity -0.779 g/mL, MW - 84.16 g/mol) and 1.6575 grams of propylbenzene (density = 0.862 g/mL, MW = 120.2 g/mol). What is the volume percent composition of cyclohexane in the mixture?

Answer:

66.67%

Explanation:

From the given information:

mass of cyclohexane = 2.9949 grams

density of cyclohexane = 0.779 g/mL

Recall that:

Density = mass/volume

∴

Volume = mass/density

So, the volume of cyclohexane = 2.9949 g/ 0.779 g/mL

= 3.8445 mL

Also,

mass of propylbenzene = 1.6575 grams

density of propylbenzene = 0.862 g/mL

Volume of propylbenzene =  1.6575 g/ 0.862 g/mL

= 1.9229 mL

The volume % composition of cyclohexane from the mixture is:

= (\dfrac{v_{cyclohexane}}{v_{cyclohexane}+v_{propylbenzene}})\times 100

= (\dfrac{3.8445}{3.8445+1.9229})\times 100

= (\dfrac{3.8445}{5.7674})\times 100

= 66.67%

What amount of heat will raise the temperature of 78g liquid water from 20 C to 80 C?
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

19656J

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question.

Mass (M) = 78g

Initial temperature (T1) = 20°C

Final temperature (T2) = 80°C

Change in temperature (ΔT) = T2 – T1 =

80°C – 20°C = 60°C

Specific heat capacity (C) = 4.2J/g°C

Heat (Q) =...?

Step 2:

Determination of the heat required for the reaction.

Q = MCΔT

Q = 78 x 4.2 x 60

Q = 19656J

Therefore, 19656J of heat is required.

A balance was tested against a standard calibration mass with a certified value of 200.002 g and produced the following readings
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

Precise but not accurate.

Explanation:

We can tell the performance of the balance is precise, because the repeated measurements give values close to one another.

However, the performance of the balance is not accurate, as the mean value of the repeated measurements (195.587) is not close to the value considered as true (in this case the standard calibration mass with a certified value of 200.002 g).
