A sample of propane (C3H8) has a mass of 0. 47 g. The sample is burned in a bomb calorimeter that has a mass of 1. 350 kg and a

Nady [450]

The amount of heat released by the sample has been 22.54 kJ. Thus, option C is correct.

The specific heat has been defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance by 1 degree Celsius.

The specific heat has been expressed as:

$q=mc\Delta T$

<h3 /><h3>Computation for the heat absorbed</h3>

The iron and calorimeter are in side the closed system. Thus, the energy released by the sample, has been equivalent to the energy absorbed by the calorimeter.

$q_{released}=q_{absorbed}\\
q_{released}=m_{calorimeter}\;c_{calorimeter}\;\Delta T$

The given mass of calorimeter has been, $m_{calorimeter}=1350\;\rm g$

The specific heat of the calorimeter has been, $c_{calorimeter}=5.82\;\rm J/g^\circ C$

The change in temperature of the calorimeter has been, $\Delta T=2.87^\circ \rm C$

Substituting the values for heat released:

$q_{released}= 1350\;\text g\;\times\;5.82\;\text J/\text g^\circ \text C\;\times\;2.87^\circ \text C\\
q_{released}=22,549.5\;\text J\\
q_{released}}=22.54\;\rm kJ$

The amount of heat released by the sample has been 22.54 kJ. Thus, option C is correct.

What is a process by which long-term carbon is released into the atmosphere

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The carbon cycle

Carbon moves from living things to the atmosphere. Each time you exhale, you are releasing carbon dioxide gas (CO2) into the atmosphere. Animals and plants get rid of carbon dioxide gas through a process called respiration. Carbon moves from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned.

Why sodium chloride is a poor conductor of electricity in solid state?

aev [14]

Answer:

Because the electrons in this ionic compound arent free to move and so cannot carry charge. For an iconic compound to conduct electricity it must be a liquid, either in a molten form or dissolved in water.
