Answer:

$m=243.72g$

Explanation:

Hello,

For the given chemical reaction:

$CaO(s) + 3 C(s) \rightarrow CaC_2(s) + CO(g)$

Whose heat of reaction is 464.8 kJ/mol which means that energy is absorbed due to the chemical reaction, we can compute the moles of calcium carbide via the following relationship:

$n=\frac{1770kJ}{464.8 kJ/mol}\\ \\n=3.81mol$

Then, since the molar mass of calcium carbide is 64 g/mol, the yielded mass turns out:

$m=3.81mol*\frac{64g}{1mol}\\ \\m=243.72g$

Best regards.

Given:

Mass of calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)2) = 96.1 g

To determine:

Theoretical yield of calcium phosphate, Ca3(PO4)2

Explanation:

Balanced Chemical reaction-

3Ca(NO3)2 + 2Na3PO4 → 6NaNO3 + Ca3(PO4)2

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

3 moles of Ca(NO3)2 produces 1 mole of Ca3(PO4)2

Now,

Given mass of Ca(NO3)2 = 96.1 g

Molar mass of Ca(NO3)2 = 164 g/mol

# moles of ca(NO3)2 = 96.1/164 = 0.5859 moles

Therefore, # moles of Ca3(PO4)2 produced = 0.0589 * 1/3 = 0.0196 moles

Molar mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = 310 g/mol

Mass of Ca3(PO4)2 produced = 0.0196 * 310 = 6.076 g

Ans: Theoretical yield of Ca3(PO4)2 = 6.08 g

Which of the following (with specific heat capacity provided) would show the smallest temperature change upon gaining 200.0 J of

Brut [27]

Answer: The smallest temperature change is shown by water.

Explanation:

To calculate the heat absorbed or released, we use the equation:

$q=mC\times \Delta T$ ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed = 200.0 J

m = mass of the substance

C = specific heat of substance

$\Delta T$ = change in temperature

As, the same amount of heat is getting absorbed in all the cases. So, the change in temperature will depend on the product of mass and specific heat.

For the given options:

Option a: 50.0 g Fe, $C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.449J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=50.0g\times 0.449J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 0.449}=8.99^oC$

Change in temperature = 8.99°C

Option b: 50.0 g water, $C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{water}=4.18J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=50.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{50\times 4.18}=0.96^oC$

Change in temperature = 0.96°C

Option b: 25.0 g Pb, $C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=50.0g\\C_{Pb}=0.128J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.128J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.128}=62.5^oC$

Change in temperature = 62.5°C

Option d: 25.0 g Ag, $C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=25.0g\\C_{Ag}=0.235J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.235J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.235}=34.04^oC$

Change in temperature = 34.04°C

Option e: 25.0 g granite, $C_{granite}=0.79J/g^oC$

We are given:

$m=25.0g\\C_{Fe}=0.79J/g^oC$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$200.0J=25.0g\times 0.79J/g^oC\times \Delta T\\\\\Delta T=\frac{200}{25\times 0.79}=10.13^oC$

Change in temperature = 10.13°C

Hence, the smallest temperature change is shown by water.
