In a coffee cup calorimeter, 1.60 g NH4NO3 was mixed with 75.0 grams of water at an initial temperature of 25.00* Celsius. After

the dissolution of the salt, the final temperature of the calorimeter contents was 23.34 * Celcius. Assuming the solution has a heat capacity of 4.18 J/g*C, and assuming no heat loss to the calorimeter, calculate the enthalpy of the solution for the dissolution of NH4NO3 in units of kJ/mol. Q

Answer:

-26.6kJ/mol

Explanation:

The dissolution of NH₄NO₃ is:

NH₄NO₃(aq) → NH₄⁺(aq) + NO₃⁻(aq)

To solve this question we need to find the heat released in the dissolution using the equation of coffee cup calorimeter:

Q = -m*S*ΔT

<em>Where Q is heat,</em>

<em>m is the mass of solution = 1.60g + 75.0g = 76.6g</em>

<em>S is specific heat of the calorimeter (4.18J/g°C)</em>

<em>And ΔT is change in temperature (25°C - 23.34°C = 1.66°C)</em>

<em />

The heat is:

Q = -76.6g*4.18J/g°C*1.66°C

Q = -531.5J = -0.5315kJ are released

The heat released per mole = Enthalpy for the dissolution is:

<em>Moles NH₄NO₃:</em>

1.60g * (1mol / 80.043g) = 0.0200mol

Enthalpy for the dissolution:

-0.5315kJ / 0.0200mol =

<h3>-26.6kJ/mol</h3>

A 28.5 gram piece of iron is added to a graduated cylinder containing 45.5 mL of water. The water in the cylinder rises to the 4
yan [13]

7.91 g/ml is the density of the iron piece of 28.5 gms.

Explanation:

The density of a substance is defined as the volume it occupies.  It tells the matter present in a substance.

The density is mass per unit volume and is denoted by p.

The formula for density is given by:

density (p) = \frac{mass}{volume}

Data given is :

mass= 28.5 grams

V1 = 45.5 ml

V2= 49.1 ml

The initial volume of water was 45.5 ml, when iron piece of 28.5 grams was added the final volume was 49.1 ml.

Putting the values in the equation of density

p = \frac{28.5}{49.1-45.5}

p = 7.91 g/ml

Since iron is a dense material it will occupy less volume

What data should be plotted to show that experimental concentration data fits a first-order reaction? A) 1/[reactant] vs. time B
natita [175]

Answer:

C) In[reactant] vs. time

Explanation:

For a first order reaction the integrated rate law equation is:

A = A_{0}e^{-kt}

where A(0) = initial concentration of the reactant

A = concentration after time 't'

k = rate constant

Taking ln on both sides gives:

ln[A] = ln[A]_{0}-kt

Therefore a plot of ln[A] vs t should give a straight line with a slope = -k

Hence, ln[reactant] vs time should be plotted for a first order reaction.
