Answer:

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of the iron is 0.567J/g.°C.

<em>Note: The question is incomplete. The complete question is given as follows:</em>

<em>A 59.1 g sample of iron is put into a calorimeter (see sketch attached) that contains 100.0 g of water. The iron sample starts off at 85.0 °C and the temperature of the water starts off at 23.0 °C. When the temperature of the water stops changing it's 27.6 °C. The pressure remains constant at 1 atm. </em>

<em> Calculate the specific heat capacity of iron according to this experiment. Be sure your answer is rounded to the correct number of significant digits</em>

Explanation:

Using the formula of heat, Q = mc∆T  

where Q = heat energy (Joules, J), m = mass of a substance (g)

c = specific heat capacity (J/g∙°C), ∆T = change in temperature (°C)

When the hot iron is placed in the water, the temperature of the iron and water attains equilibrium when the temperature stops changing at 27.6 °C. Since it is assumed that heat exchange occurs only between the iron metal and water; Heat lost by Iron = Heat gained by water

mass of iron  = 59.1 g, c = ?, Tinitial = 85.0 °C, Tfinal = 27.6 °C

∆T = 85.0 °C - 27.6 °C = 57.4 °C

mass of water = 100.0 g, c = 4.184 J/g∙°C, Tinitial = 23.0 °C, Tfinal = 27.6 °C

∆T = 27.6°C - 23.0°C = 4.6 °C

Substituting the values above in the equation; Heat lost by Iron = Heat gained by water

59.1 g * c * 57.4 °C  = 100.0 g * 4.184 J/g.°C * 4.6 °C

c = 0.567 J/g.°C

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of the iron is 0.567 J/g.°C.

How many atoms are there in 4.13 moles of nickel (Ni)
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

24.87× 10²³ atoms of Ni

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of Ni= ?

Number of moles of Ni = 4.13 mol

Solution:

we will calculate the number of atoms of Ni by using  Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

4.13 mol ×  6.022 × 10²³ atoms /1 mol

24.87× 10²³ atoms of Ni
