Explanation:

Given parameters:

Quantity of heat, H = 257J

Mass of Mercury = 0.45kg

Temperature change = 4.09K

Unknown:

Specific heat capacity = ?

Solution:

The amount of heat absorbed by a body is given as:

   H = m c Ф

 H is quantity of heat

m is the mass of the body

 c is the specific heat

 Ф is the temperature change

   The unknown is C and we solve for it;

    257 = 0.45 x C x 4.09

      C = 139.67J/kgK

Answer:

<u><em>139.67 (J/kgk)</em></u>

Explanation:

Given data:

mass of mercury = m = 0.45 Kg

Amount of energy = Q = 257 J

Increase in the temperature = ΔT = 4.09 K

To find:

Specific heat capacity = C

Formula:

By using specific heat equation,

Q =  m x C  X  ΔT

C =  Q  /  m  x  ΔT

   = 257J  /  o.45 kg  x  4.09K

   = 257J  / 1.84

    = 139.67 (J/kgk)

<u>Specific heat of mercury is</u><u> </u><u>139.67 (J/kgk).</u>

Answer:

7.5 moles of O₂.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

2KClO₃ —> 2KCl + 3O₂

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of KClO₃ decomposed to produce 3 moles of O₂.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of O₂ produced by the decomposition of 5 moles of KClO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of KClO₃ decomposed to produce 3 moles of O₂.

Therefore, 5 moles of KClO₃ will decompose to produce = (5 × 3)/ 2 = 7.5 moles of O₂.

Thus, 7.5 moles of O₂ were obtained from the reaction.

Calculate the Molarity (M) of an aqueous solution of HCl which is 35.38% HCl by mass and has a density of 1.161 g/mL.
kozerog [31]

Answer:

11.2 M → [HCl]

Explanation:

Solution density = Solution mass / Solution volume

35.38 % by mass, is the same to say 35.38 g of solute in 100 g of solution.

Let's determine the moles of our solute, HCl

35.38 g . 1 mol/36.45 g = 0.970 moles

Let's replace the data in solution density formula

1.161 g/mL = 100 g / Solution volume

Solution volume = 100 g / 1.161 g/mL → 86.1 mL

Let's convert the volume to L → 86.1 mL . 1L / 1000 mL = 0.0861 L

Molarity (M) → mol/L = 0.970 mol / 0.0861 L → 11.2 M
