weqwewe [10]

Answer:

22.44°C will be the final temperature of the water.

Explanation:

Heat lost by tin will be equal to heat gained by the water

$-Q_1=Q_2$

Mass of tin = $m_1=18.5 g$

Specific heat capacity of tin = $c_1=0.21 J/g^oC$

Initial temperature of the tin = $T_1=97.38^oC$

Final temperature = $T_2$ =T

$Q_1=m_1c_1\times (T-T_1)$

Mass of water= $m_2=75.7 g$

Specific heat capacity of water= $c_2=4.184 J/g^oC$

Initial temperature of the water = $T_3=21.52^oC$

Final temperature of water = $T_2$ =T

$Q_2=m_2c_2\times (T-T_3)$

$-Q_1=Q_2$

$-(m_1c_1\times (T-T_1))=m_2c_2\times (T-T_3)$

On substituting all values:

$-(18.5 g\times 0.21 J/g^oC\times (T-97.38^oC))=75.7 g\times 4.184 J/g^oC\times (T-21.52 ^oC)$

we get, T = 22.44°C

22.44°C will be the final temperature of the water.

bulgar [2K]

Answer: Mass of $CO_2$ produced in this reaction was 6.56 grams

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

$CaCO_3(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)+CaCl_2(aq)$
