Answer:

When melted or dissolved in water.

Explanation:

Potassium bromide in its solid form contains ions, which are charged atoms. Through the heating process, the melted potassium bromide becomes an ionic liquid. If solid potassium bromide is dissolved, for example in water, the resulting release of ions allows it to conduct electricity.

How many kilojoules of energy would be required to heat a 225g block of aluminum from 23.0 C to 73.5 C?

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 10.2 \ kJ}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find how many kilojoules of energy would be required to heat a block of aluminum.

We will use the following formula to calculate heat energy.

$q=mc \Delta T$

The mass (m) of the aluminum block is 225 grams and the specific heat (c) is 0.897 Joules per gram degree Celsius. The change in temperature (ΔT) is the difference between the final temperature and the initial temperature.

ΔT = final temperature - inital temperature

The aluminum block was heated from 23.0 °C to 73.5 °C.

ΔT= 73.5 °C - 23.0 °C = 50.5 °C

Now we know all three variables and can substitute them into the formula.

m= 225 g
c= 0.897 J/g° C
ΔT= 50.5 °C

$q= (225 \ g )(0.897 \ J/g \textdegree C)(50.5 \textdegree C)$

Multiply the first two numbers. The units of grams cancel.

$q= (225 \ g * 0.897 \ J/g \textdegree C)(50.5 \textdegree C)$

$q= (225 * 0.897 \ J / \textdegree C)(50.5 \textdegree C)$

$q= (201.825\ J / \textdegree C)(50.5 \textdegree C)$

Multiply again. This time, the units of degrees Celsius cancel.

$q= 201.825 \ J * 50.5$

$q= 10192.1625 \ J$

The answer asks for the energy in kilojoules, so we must convert our answer. Remember that 1 kilojoule contains 1000 joules.

$\frac { 1 \ kJ}{ 1000 \ J}$

Multiply by the answer we found in Joules.

$10192.1625 \ J * \frac{ 1 \ kJ}{ 1000 \ J}$

$10192.1625 * \frac{ 1 \ kJ}{ 1000 }$

$\frac {10192. 1625}{1000} \ kJ$

$10.1921625 \ kJ$

The original values of mass, temperature, and specific heat all have 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the tneths place. The 9 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 1 up to a 2.

$10.2 \ kJ$

Approximately <u>10.2 kilojoules</u> of energy would be required.

What is the theoretical yield of aspirin ( C 9 H 8 O 4 ), which has a molar mass of 180.15 g/mol, possible when reacting 3.03 g

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The theoretical yield of aspirin is 3.95 grams

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of salicylic acid = 3.03 grams

Volume of acetic anhydride = 3.61 mL

Density of acetic anhydride = 1.08 g/cm³

Step 2: The balanced equation

C4H6O3+C7H6O3→C9H8O4+C2H4O2

Step 3: Calculate moles salicylic acid

Moles salicylic acid = mass salicylic acid / molar mass salicylic acid

Moles salicylic acid = 3.03 grams /138.121 g/mol

Moles salicylic acid = 0.0219 moles

Step 4: Calculate mass acetic anhydride

Mass acetic anhydride = volume * density

Mass acetic anhydride = 3.61 mL * 1.08 g/mL

Mass acetic anhydride = 3.90 grams

Step 5: Calculate moles acetic anhydride

Moles acetic anhydride = 3.90 grams / 102.09 g/mol

Moles acetic anhydride = 0.0382 moles

Step 6: Calculate limiting reactant

For 1 mol salicylic acid we need 1 mol acetic anhydride to produce 1 mol aspirin

Salicylic acid is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed. (0.0219 moles). Acetic anhydride is in excess. There will react 0.0219 moles. There remain 0.0382 - 0.0219 =0.0163 moles

Step 7: Calculate moles aspirin

For 1 mol salicylic acid we need 1 mol acetic anhydride to produce 1 mol aspirin

For 0.0219 moles salicylic acid we'll have 0.0219 moles aspirin

Step 8: Calculate theoretical yield of aspirin

Mass of aspirin = moles aspirin *molar mass aspirin

Mass of aspirin = 0.0219 moles *180.15 g/mol

Mass of aspirin = 3.95 grams

The theoretical yield of aspirin is 3.95 grams

Why do people poop it is for my chemistry class

algol13

The digestive system takes the nutrients from the food you eat as well as the water. The leftover matter is excreted through the body as feces, or poop. Hope I helped :)
