We do a heat balance to solve this:
(m cp ΔT)water = -(m cp ΔT)metal
100.8 (4.18) (27 - 22) = -65 (cp)(27-100)
cp = 100.8 (4.18) (27 - 22) / (-65 (27-100))
cp = 0.44 J/ (°C × g)
The specific heat of the metal is 0.44 J/ (°C × g)
Given :
A 10.99 g sample of NaBr contains 22.34% Na by mass.
To Find :
How many grams of sodium does a 9.77g sample of sodium bromine contain.
Solution :
By law of constant composition , in any given chemical compound, the elements always combine in the same proportion with each other.
Therefore , percentage of Na by mass in NaBr will be same for every amount .
Percentage of Na in 9.77 g NaBr is 22.34 % too .
Gram of Na =
.
Hence , this is the required solution .
