Answer:

Q1 = C * m * dT

Q2 = Qm * m

Qtotal = Q1 + Q2

Q1 - is amount of energy you need to apply to heat oxygen from the current temperature till you reach the melting temperature. Only if the oxygen is below to melting temperature.

C - is calorific capacity of oxygen -- better look at tables, it is a constant value

m - is the amount of oxygen, we will use moles because the other data shows moles, but could be grams, kg, etc.

dT - is the diference of temperatures between the current and the melting one. The melting temperature is constant and you can find it on tables, then (Tm - To)

Q2 is the amount of energy you have to add to melt oxygen once the oxygen has reached the melting temperature (Tm)

Qm is a constant value you could find on tables, depends on the mass of oxygen and is due to internal processes as changes in atomic distributions

If the oxygen is initially at melting temperature (melting point) you only need to know Q2, as dT = 0

I will do an example for you, but in future you should provide data of constants, it takes very long to find them in books or internet.

Data from tables

Tm =  54.36 K

C = 29.378 J/mol K this is at 25 C (or 298 K), is not really correct, you should look at its value at less than 54.36 K, but you can use it here.

Qm = 0.444 kJ/mol

Problem -- you have 44.33g of Oxygen -- Molecular weight of O2 is 32 g/mol

So you have 44.33/32 = 1.385 moles of oxygen

a) if oxygen is already at melting temperature: you only have to melt it

Qtotal = Q1 + Q2 = [0 (dT = 0) + Qm * m] = 0.444 * 1.385 = 0.615 kJ = 615 J

b) supposing an initial temperture of 50 K: now you have to heat oxygen till melting temperature and then melt it.

Q1 = C * m * dT = 29.378 * 1.385 * (54.36 - 50) = 177.442 J

Q2 = Qm * m = 615 J

Qtotal = 177.442 + 615 = 792.44 J

Answer:

In this case, 1 mole of liquid oxygen requires 3.41 kJ of heat in order to perform that liquid → solid. your sample from grams to moles by using oxygen's molar mass.

The Ka for acetic acid (HC2H3O2) is 1.80 x 10-5 . Determine the pH of a 0.0500mol/L acetic acid solution.
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

pH = 3.02

Explanation:

Acetic Acid is a weak acid (HOAc) that ionizes only ~1.5% as follows:

HOAc ⇄ H⁺ + OAc⁻.

In pure water the hydronium ion concentration [H⁺] equals the acetate ion concentration [OAc⁻] and can be determined* using the formula [H⁺] = [OAc⁻] = SqrRt(Ka·[acid]) = SqrRt(1.8x10⁻⁵ x 0.0500)M = 9.5x10⁻⁴M.

By definition, pH = -log[H⁺] = -log(9.5x10⁻⁴) = 3.02

______________________________________________________

*This formula can be used to determine the [H⁺] & [Anion⁻] concentrations for any weak acid in pure water given its Ka-value and the molar concentration of acid in solution.

Is the climate change that Greenland is experiencing and will continue to experience a good thing or bad thing for Greenland and
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

bad thing.

Explanation:

most of Greenland is an icy island with the only main population on the west coast.

Although this would probably open up more land for use; the rising sea levels are a much bigger threat comparatively with the perks of warmer climate.
