A chef uses a large aluminum spoon with a mass of 38.0 g to stir a pot of boiling water. As a result, the spoon’s temperature in

creases by 3.60°C. Consider that the specific heat capacity of aluminum is 0.90 J/g–°C. How much heat has the spoon absorbed? For credit, you must show all steps of your calculations.

Answer:

12,312 J or 0.12312 kJ

Explanation:

q = mCT

q = J of heat  

m = mass

C = heat capacity

T = temp change

q = 38 x 0.90 x 3.6

q = 12312 J

q = 0.12312 kJ

The combustion of 44.45 grams of a hydrocarbon gas mixture releases 2,649 kJ of heat. How much energy, in kWh, will the combusti
Naddika [18.5K]

Explanation:

It is given that 44.45 g of hydrocarbon gas produces 2649 kJ or 2649 \times 10^{3} J of heat.

Also here, 1 lb = 453.592 g.

Therefore, amount of energy released by 453.592 g of hydrocarbon gas will be calculated as follows.

              \frac{2649 \times 10^{3} J \times 453.592 g}{44.45 g}

             = 27.03 \times 10^{6} J

It is known that 1 J = 2.778 \times 10^{-7} Kwh.

Hence, 27.03 \times 10^{6} J = 27.03 \times 10^{6} J \times 2.778 \times 10^{-7} Kwh/J

                              = 7.508 Kwh

Thus, we can conclude that the combustion of exactly one pound of this hydrocarbon gas produce 7.508 Kwh energy.

Why are phase changes horizontal on a heating curve
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

A heating curve graphically represents the phase transitions that a substance undergoes as heat is added to it. The plateaus on the curve mark the phase changes.The second change of phase is boiling, as the temperature stays the same during the transition to gas.

How many grams of naoh are needed to prepare 500 ml of 0.125 m naoh?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

First let us calculate for the number of moles needed:

moles NaOH = 0.125 M * 0.500 L = 0.0625 mol

 

The molar mass of NaOH is 40 g/mol, hence the mass is:

mass NaOH = 0.0625 mol * 40 g/mol

<span>mass NaOH = 2.5 grams</span>
