Answer:

The specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is 0.223 \frac{J}{g*C}

Explanation:

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

There is a direct proportional relationship between heat and temperature. The constant of proportionality depends on the substance that constitutes the body as on its mass, and is the product of the specific heat by the mass of the body. So, the equation that allows calculating heat exchanges is:

Q = c * m * ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case, you know:

  • Q= 418.6 J
  • c= ?  
  • m= 75 g
  • ΔT= 25 C

Replacing:

418.6 J= c* 75 g* 25 C

Solving:

c=\frac{418.6 J}{75 g*25 C}

c= 0.223 \frac{J}{g*C}

<u><em>The specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is 0.223 </em></u>\frac{J}{g*C}<u><em></em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>

Answer:

\large \boxed{1.447 \times 10^{23}\text{ molecules Cu(OH)}_{2 }}

Explanation:

1. Calculate the moles of copper(II) hydroxide

\text{Moles of Cu(OH)}_{2} = \text{23.45 g Cu(OH)}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol Cu(OH)}_{2}}{\text{97.562 g Cu(OH)}_{2}} = \\\\\text{0.240 36 mol Cu(OH)}_{2}

2. Calculate the molecules of copper(II) hydroxide

\text{No. of molecules} = \text{0.240 36 mol Cu(OH)}_{2} \times \dfrac{6.022 \times 10^{23}\text{ molecules Cu(OH)}_{2}}{\text{1 mol Cu(OH)}_{2}}\\\\= 1.447 \times 10^{23}\text{ molecules Cu(OH)}_{2}\\\text{The sample contains $\large \boxed{\mathbf{1.447 \times 10^{23}}\textbf{ molecules Cu(OH)}_{\mathbf{2}}}$}
