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

A sample of gas has a volume of 100.0 L at 135°C. Assuming the pressure remains constant, what is the volume of the gas if its t
lina2011 [118]

Answer: 84.56L

Explanation:

Initial volume of gas V1 = 100L

Initial temperature T1 = 135°C

Convert temperature in Celsius to Kelvin

( 135°C + 273 = 408K)

Final temperature T2 = 72°C

( 72°C + 273= 345K)

Final volume V2 = ?

According to Charle's law, the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature.

Mathematically, Charles' Law is expressed as: V1/T1 = V2/T2

100L/408K = V2/345K

To get the value of V2, cross multiply

100L x 345K = V2 x 408K

34500 = V2 x 408K

V2.= 34500/408

V2 = 84.56L

Thus, the volume of the gas becomes 84.56 liters

Suppose a solution is described as concentrated. Which of the following statements can be concluded? Select the correct answer b
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

  • last option: none of<u> the above.</u>

Explanation:

Describing a solution as<em> concentrated</em> tells that the solution has a relative large concentration, but it is a qualitative description, not a quantitative one, so this does not tell really how concentrated the solution is. This is, the term concentrated is a kind of vague; it just lets you know that the solution is not very diluted, but, as said initially, that there is a relative large amount (concentration) of solute.

One conclusion, of course, is that <u>the solute is soluble</u>: else the solution were not concentrated.

On the other hand, the terms saturated and <em>supersaturated</em> to define a solution are specific.

A saturated solution has all the solute that certain amount of solvent can contain, at a given temperature. A <u>supersaturated solution has more solute dissolved than the saturated solution</u> at the same temperature; superstaturation is a very unstable condition.

From above, there is no way that you can conclude whether a solution is supersaturated or not from the statement that a solution is concentrated, so the answer is<u> none of the above</u>.
