Answer:

T_f=57.3\°C

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, for this calorimetry problem, it is possible to realize that the hot water at 87.6 °C is cooled down whereas the cold water at 34.5 °C is heated up, according to:

Q_{cold}=-Q_{hot}

Which in terms of mass, specific heat (cancelled out because they have the same value for being water) and temperature difference, is:

m_{cold}C_{cold}(T_f-T_{cold})=-m_{hot}C_{hot}(T_f-T_{hot})\\\\m_{cold}(T_f-T_{cold})=-m_{hot}(T_f-T_{hot})

Thus, solving for the final temperature, we obtain:

T_f=\frac{m_{cold}T_{cold}+m_{hot}T_{hot}}{m_{cold}+m_{hot}}

Then, we plug in to obtain:

T_f=\frac{200g*34.5\°C+150g*87.6\C}{200g+150g}\\\\T_f=57.3\°C

Best regards!

Consider 100.0-g samples of two different compounds consisting only of carbon and oxygen. one compound contains 27.2 g of carbon
Sliva [168]

This is a tricky question. All that matters are ratios of percentages, not percentages themselves. So no one should directly compare 27.2 with 42.9. We must and shall compare the ratios (27.2 to 72.8) and (42.9 to 57.1).

Take them both down to 1 to and see what happens.

Working out the formulas knowing atomic masses is a bit beside the point; this is how people first DISCOVERED the idea of atomic mass.

A

Carbon Oxygen

27.2g 72.8g (100-27.2)

Moles 27.2/12 72.8/16

2.27 4.55

Ratio 1 2

Do the same with the other
