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>

Which of the following is an example of a physical change? A) grinding coffee beans B) baking a cake C) converting water to hydr
lara [203]

Answer: A) grinding coffee beans

Explanation:

A physical change is defined as a change in which there is alteration in shape, size etc. No new substance gets formed in these reactions.

A chemical change is defined as a change in which a change in chemical composition takes place. A new substance is formed in these reactions.

1. Grinding coffee : Only change in size takes place, thus a physical change

2. Baking a cake: the chemical reaction occurs by combination of flour with oxygen , thus a chemical change.

3.:converting water to hydrogen and oxygen: The decomposition iof water takes place, thus is a chemical change

4.Burning of coal: the chemical reaction occurs by combination of carbon with oxygen , thus a chemical change.

ioda

Answer:

t = 7.58 * 10¹⁹ seconds

Explanation:

First order rate constant is given as,

k =  (2.303 /t) log  [A₀] /[Aₙ]

where  [A₀]  is the initial concentraion of the reactant; [Aₙ] is the concentration of the reactant at time, <em>t</em>

[A₀]  = 615 calories;

[Aₙ] = 615 - 480 = 135 calories

k = 2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹

substituting the values in the equation of the rate constant;

2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹ = (2.303/t) log (615/135)

(2.00 * 10⁻²⁰ sec⁻¹) / log (615/135) = (2.303/t)

t = 2.303 / 3.037 * 10⁻²⁰

t = 7.58 * 10¹⁹ seconds

Find the grams in 1.26*10^-4 mol of HC2H3O2
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

0.00757 grams

Explanation:

Find the molar mass of the compound: which is 60.05.

The molar mass is basically just the sum of all the atomic masses of each of the elements.

Then multiply the molar mass by the number of moles in the compound, which is 1.26 x 10^-4 moles.

Your answer should be 0.00757 grams.

If a 100. -g sample of a hydrated compound contains 37.07-g sodium, 48.39-g carbonate and 14.54-g water, find the empirical form
Mumz [18]

he required empirical formula based on the data provided is Na2CO3.H2O.

<h3>What is empirical formula?</h3>

The term empirical formula refers to the formula of a compound which shows the ratio of each specie present.

We have the following;

Mass of sodium = 37.07-g

Mass of carbonate = 48.39 g

Mass of water = 14.54-g

Number of moles of sodium = 37.07-g/23 g/mol = 2 moles

Number of moles of carbonate = 48.39 g/61 g/mol = 1 mole

Number of moles of water = 14.54/18 g/mol = 1 mole

The mole ratio is 2 : 1: 1

Hence, the required empirical formula is Na2CO3.H2O
