Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of sample, m = 996.9 g
The change in temperature of the sample,
Heat produced, Q = 62.9 calories = 263173.6 J
The heat released by a sample due to change in temperature is given by :
Where
c is the specific heat capacity
So,
So, the specific heat of ethanol is equal to .
Answer:
ΔH of solution is expected to be close to zero.
Explanation:
When we mix two non polar organic liquids like hexane and heptane,the resulting mixture formed is an ideal solution.An ideal solution is formed when the force of attraction between the molecules of the two liquids is equal to the force of attraction between the molecules of the same type.
For instance if liquids A and B are mixed,
=
=
Hence the condition before and after mixing remains unchanged.
Since enthalpy change is associated with inter molecular force of attraction the enthalpy change for ideal solution is zero.
More examples of ideal solutions are:
1. Ethanol and Methanol
2. Benzene and Toluene
3. Ethyl bromide and Ethyl iodide
