Explanation:

The changes in temperature caused by a reaction, combined with the values of the specific heat and the mass of the reacting system, makes it possible to determine the heat of reaction.

Heat energy can be measured by observing how the temperature of a known mass of water (or other substance) changes when heat is added or removed. This is basically how most heats of reaction are determined. The reaction is carried out in some insulated container, where the heat absorbed or evolved by the reaction causes the temperature of the contents to change. This temperature change is measured and the amount of heat that caused the change is calculated by multiplying the temperature change by the heat capacity of the system.

The apparatus used to measure the temperature change for a reacting system is called a calorimeter (that is, a calorie meter). The science of using such a device and the data obtained with it is called calorimetry. The design of a calorimeter is not standard and different calorimeters are used for the amount of precision required. One very simple design used in many general chemistry labs is the styrofoam "coffee cup" calorimeter, which usually consists of two nested styrofoam cups.

When a reaction occurs at constant pressure inside a Styrofoam coffee-cup calorimeter, the enthalpy change involves heat, and little heat is lost to the lab (or gained from it). If the reaction evolves heat, for example, very nearly all of it stays inside the calorimeter, the amount of heat absorbed or evolved by the reaction is calculated.

When excess dilute hydrochloric acid was added to sodium sulphite 960 of sulphuric (iv) oxide was produced. calculate the mass o

irakobra [83]

The mass of sodium sulfite that was used will be 1,890 grams.

<h3>Stoichiometric problems</h3>

First, the equation of the reaction:

$NaSO_3 + 2HCl --- > NaCl_2 + H_2O + SO_2$

The mole ratio of SO2 produced and sodium sulfite that reacted is 1:1.

Mole of 960 grams SO2 = 960/64 = 15 moles

Equivalent mole of sodium sulfite that reacted = 15 moles

Mass of 15 moles sodium sulfite = 15 x 126 = 1,890 grams

A solution contains one or more of the following ions: Ag , Ca2 , and Co2 . Lithium bromide is added to the solution and no prec

koban [17]

Answer:

$Ca^{2+} and Co^{2+}$

Explanation:

Given:

A solution contains one or more of the following ions such as Ag, $Ca_2$ and $Co_2$

Here the Lithium bromide is added to the solution and no precipitate forms

Solution:

Since with LiBr no precipitation takes place therefore Ag+ is absent

Here on adding $Li_2SO_4$ to it precipitation takes place.

Precipitate is as follows,

$Ca^{2+}(aq)+SO_4^2^-(aq)----->CASO_4(s)$

Thus,

$Ca^2^+$ is present

When $Li_3PO_4$ is added again precipitation takes place.

Therefore the reaction is as follows,

$Co^2^+(aq)+PO_4^3^-(aq)------>Co_3(PO_4)_2(s)$

Therefore,

$Ca^{2+} and Co^{2+}$ are present in the solution

What must be true when work is done?

klio [65]

In order to accomplish work on an object there must be a force exerted on the object and it must move in the direction of the force. ... For the special case of a constant force, the work may be calculated by multiplying the distance times the component of force which acts in the direction of motion.
