Answer:
The specific heat of gold is 0.129 J/g°C
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Mass of gold = 15.3 grams
Heat absorbed = 87.2 J
Initial temperature = 35.0 °C
Final temperature = 79.2 °C
Step 2:
Q = m*c*ΔT
⇒ Q =the heat absorbed = 87.2 J
⇒ m = the mass of gold = 15.3 grams
⇒ c = the specific heat of gold = TO BE DETERMINED
⇒ ΔT = The change in temperature = T2 - T1 = 79.2 - 35.0 = 44.2 °C
87.2 J = 15.3g * c * 44.2°C
c = 87.2 / (15.3 * 44.2)
c = 0.129 J/g°C
The specific heat of gold is 0.129 J/g°C
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:
<span>CH4 (g) + 2 O2 (g) ----> CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (g)
</span>
We are given the amount of water to be produced from the reaction. This amount will be used for the calculations. Calculations are as follows:
12.4 L H2O ( 1 mol / 22.4 L ) ( 1 mol CH4 / 2 mol H2O ) ( 22.4 L / 1 mol ) = 6.2 L CH4
Answer:
The balanced equation is 2K(s) + Cl2(g)→2KCl(s)
Write as a proportion, showing the relationship of both given information:
68.0g 0.3g
---------- = -----------
1L x ( your answer)
Cross multiply: 68.0g× X = 0.3g × 1L
68.0g (X)= 0.3g/L
Solve for X by dividing both sides by 68.0 g
68.0g (X) = 0.3g/L
------------- ------------------
68.0g 68.0g
Then enter into calculator 0.3/68 and that will be your solution. Make sure you round up.
