A 2.50 g sample of solid sodium hydroxide is added to 55.0 mL of 25 °C water in a foam cup (insulated from the environment) and
zlopas [31]

Answer:

37.1°C.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the amount of heat (Q) released through this reaction:

<em>∵ ΔHsoln = Q/n</em>

no. of moles (n) of NaOH = mass/molar mass = (2.5 g)/(40 g/mol) = 0.0625 mol.

<em>The negative sign of ΔHsoln indicates that the reaction is exothermic.</em>

∴ Q = (n)(ΔHsoln) = (0.0625 mol)(44.51 kJ/mol) = 2.78 kJ.

  • We can use the relation:

Q = m.c.ΔT,

where, Q is the amount of heat released to water (Q = 2781.87 J).

m is the mass of water (m = 55.0 g, suppose density of water = 1.0 g/mL).

c is the specific heat capacity of water (c = 4.18 J/g.°C).

ΔT is the difference in T (ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature = final temperature - 25°C).

∴ (2781.87 J) = (55.0 g)(4.18 J/g.°C)(final temperature - 25°C)

∴ (final temperature - 25°C) = (2781.87 J)/(55.0 g)(4.18 J/g.°C) = 12.1.

<em>∴ final temperature = 25°C + 12.1 = 37.1°C.</em>

5. What type of clouds can be found in the mesosphere?
Masja [62]

Some material from meteors lingers in the mesosphere, causing this layer to have a relatively high concentration of iron and other metal atoms. Very strange, high altitude clouds called "noctilucent clouds" or "polar mesospheric clouds" sometime form in the mesosphere near the poles.

I really hope this helps! I wish you the best of luck!

Measurements show that unknown compound X has the following composition: element mass % carbon 41.0% hydrogen 4.58% oxygen 54.6%
anastassius [24]

Answer:

CHO

Explanation:

Carbon = 41%,  Hydrogen = 4.58%, oxygen = 54.6%

Step 1:

Divide through by their respective relative atomic masses

41/ 12,         4.58/1,         54.6/16

3.41              4.58            3.41

Step 2:

Divide by the lowest ratio:

3.41/3.41,      4.58/3.41,     3.41/3.41

1,                    1,                  1

Hence the empirical formula is CHO
