Answer:

0.385 J/g°C

Explanation:

Using the following formula, the specific heat of an elemental substance can be calculated:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where;

Q = quantity of heat (J)

m = mass (g)

c = specific heat capacity (J/g°C)

∆T = change in temperature (°C)

Based on the given information, Q = 1375J, m = 50g, initial temperature = 22.8°C, final temperature = 94.2°C, c =?

Q = m × c × ∆T

1375 = 50 × c × (94.2 - 22.8°C)

1375 = 50 × c × 71.4

1375 = 3570c

c = 1375/3570

c = 0.3851

c = 0.385 J/g°C

Which of the following is the correct definition of chemical energy?
bulgar [2K]

A, energy stored in chemical bonds of molecules, is correct because chemical energy is the potential energy in the molecule, for example the chemical energy in coal is converted to electrical energy through power plants. The energy was already stored in the coal, just in a different form.

A lab technician needs to create 570.0 milliliters of a 2.00 M solution of magnesium chloride (MgCl2). To make this solution, ho
love history [14]

Answer:

108.3g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Volume of solution = 570mm = 0.57L (1000mm = 1L)

Molarity of solution = 2M

Unknown

Mass of MgCl₂

Solution

We first find the  number of moles in the given concentration of magnessium chloride using the expression below:

       Number of moles of MgCl₂= Molarity x volume = 2 x 0.57 = 1.14moles

Using this known moles, we can the unknown mass of MgCl₂ the technician would require:

       Mass of MgCl₂ required = number of moles of MgCl₂ x molar mass

Molar mass of MgCl₂:

Atomic mass of Cl = 35.5g

Atomic mass of Mg = 24g

MgCl₂ = 24 + (35.5x2) = 95gmol⁻¹

Mass of MgCl₂ required = 1.14mole x 95gmole⁻¹ = 108.3g
