In order to determine the heat absorbed or given by a metal it is important to determine the heat loss or gained by calorimeter

If we dip a hot metal piece in a calorimeter, it will lose energy which will be absorbed by calorimeter

The heat absorbed by calorimeter = heat loss by metal

the heat absorbed by calorimeter = heat capacity of calorimter X change in temperature

so we should have the value of heat absorbed by calorimeter which will be equal to the heat loss by metal

heat loss by metal = mass of metal X specific heat of metal X change in temperature

thus we can calculate the specific heat of metal.

Apply scientific knowledge and understanding to determine how many grams of carbon dioxide are produced from the combustion of 2
lidiya [134]

Answer:

749 grams CO₂

Explanation:

To find the amount of carbon dioxide produced, you need to (1) convert grams C₃H₈ to moles C₃H₈ (via molar mass from periodic table), then (2) convert moles C₃H₈ to moles CO₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio via reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles CO₂ to grams CO₂ (via molar mass from periodic table). It is important to arrange the ratios/conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The desired unit should be in the numerator. The final answer should have 3 significant figures because the given value (250. grams) has 3 sig figs.

Molar Mass (C₃H₈): 3(12.01 g/mol) + 8(1.008 g/mol)

Molar Mass (C₃H₈): 44.094 g/mol

1 C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ ---> 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

Molar Mass (CO₂): 12.01 g/mol + 2(16.00 g/mol)

Molar Mass (CO₂): 44.01 g/mol

250. g C₃H₈         1 mole C₃H₈           3 moles CO₂              44.01 g
------------------  x  ----------------------  x  ----------------------  x  --------------------  =
                               44.094 g              1 mole C₃H₈            1 mole CO₂

= 749 grams CO₂

Fittoniya [83]
When heat energy at a constant pressure = the change of enthalpy

ΔH = Q

and when the internal energy of an ideal gas formula is:

ΔH = n.Cp.ΔT

and when Cp = (5/2) R   at a constant pressure of a monatomic ideal gas

∴Q = n.(5/2).R.ΔT

∴ ΔT = Q / [n.(5/2).R]

when Q is the heat required = 43.08 J (given)

and n is no.of moles = mass / molar mass

                                  = 1.1 g / 39.948 g/mol

                                  =  0.0275 moles

and R is gas constant = 8.314472J/mol K

by substitution:

ΔT = 43.08 J / (0.0275moles *(5/2) * 8.314472 J/mol K

      = 76.76  K
