Answer:

Cv_{calorimeter}=18.4kcal/K

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the combustion of the hamburger released 335.4 kcal of energy and that energy is received by the calorimeter, we can write:

Q_{hamburguer}=-Q_{calorimeter}

And the heat of the calorimeter is written in terms of the temperature change and the calorimeter constant:

Q_{hamburguer}=-Cv_{calorimeter}\Delta T

Thus, given the released heat by the hamburger due to its combustion and the temperature change, Cv for the calorimeter turns out:

Cv_{calorimeter}=\frac{-Q_{hamburguer}}{\Delta T} =\frac{-(-335.4kcal)}{18.2K}\\\\Cv_{calorimeter}=18.4kcal/K

Best regards!

2.40 g of NH4Cl is added to 19.4 g of water. Calculate the molality of the solution.
Sholpan [36]
Molality is the moles of solute per kg of solvent.

Moles of NH₄Cl = 2.4 / (14 + 4 x 1 + 35.5)
= 0.0448 mole

Molality = 0.0448 / (19.4 / 1000)
= 2.31 m

Approximately how many formula units of NaCl are in 116.88g of table salt (NaCl), knowing that the molar mass of NaCl is 58.44g/
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

116.88g of table salt (NaCl) contains two formula units

Explanation:

Now,

We know that 1 formula unit of sodium chloride has a molar mass of 58.44g/mol

Hence;

Mass of 1 formula unit = 58.44g

Mass of x formula units = 116.88g

x = 116.88g * 1 formula unit/58.44g

x = 2 formula units

Therefore;

116.88g of table salt (NaCl) contains two formula units
