Answer:

349.22°C

Explanation:

Let the final temperature of the two pieces of metal be x.

Now, the warmer metal which is C u reduces from 475°C to x. Thus Δt for C u is; Δt1 = 475 - x.

The cooler metal Cr increases in temperature from 265°C to x. Thus, it's change in temperature is Δt for Cr is; Δt2 = x - 265.

Now from conservation of energy, the amount of energy leaving the C u metal is equal to the amount of energy entering the Cr metal.

Thus;

q_lost = q_gain

Where;

q_lost = m1•c1•Δt1

q_gained = m2•c2•Δt2

Now, c1 & c2 are the specific heat capacity of C u and Cr respectively.

From online tables, c1 = 0.385 J/g°C and c2 = 0.46 J/g°C

We are given;

m1 = 12g and m2 = 15g

Thus;

12 × 0.385 × (475 - x) = 15 × 0.46 × (x - 265)

2194.5 - 4.62x = 6.9x - 1828.5

6.9x + 4.62x = 2194.5 + 1828.5

11.52x = 4023

x = 4023/11.52

x = 349.22°C

Calculate the silver ion concentration in a saturated solution of silver(i) sulfate (ksp = 1.4 × 10–5).
deff fn [24]

Answer:

= 0.030 M

Explanation:

We can take x to be the concentration in mol/L of Ag2SO4 that dissolves  

Therefore;  concentration of  Ag+ is 2x mol/L and that of SO4^2- x mol/L.

Ksp = 1.4 x 10^-5

Ksp = [Ag+]^2 [SO42-]

      = (2x)^2(x)

      = 4x^3  

Thus;

4x^3  = 1.4 x 10^-5

         = 0.015 M

molar solubility = 0.015 M

But;

[Ag+]= 2x

Hence; silver ion concentration is

= 2 x 0.015 M

= 0.030 M

The standard molar enthalpy of formation of NH3(g) is -45.9 kJ/mol. What is the enthalpy change if 9.51 g N 2(g) and 1.96 g H2(g
pogonyaev

Answer:

a. -29.8 kJ/mol-rxn

Explanation:

For a chemical reaction system the forward and reverse rate are equal. The standard molar enthalpy formation of NH3 is -45.9 kJ/mol. For the enthalpy of NH3 (8) the molar enthalpy is -29.8kJ/mol. The molar mass of N2 = 28.02g/mol. Molar enthalpy of formation is standard amount of substance produced in the formation of a reaction. The molar enthalpy is the change in enthalpy due to reaction per mole.

TEA [102]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Glucose is produced through a process powered by sunlight that consumes Carbon Dioxide and produces oxygen as a waste product.  In order for glucose to be produced, Carbon dioxide (a compound) must be, in essence, converted into a completely different chemical: dioxygen.

When a sample of CO2(s) becomes CO2(g), there a change in
KatRina [158]

Answer:

4)Particle Arrangement

Explanation:

When solid carbon dioxide CO₂ will evaporate in gaseous carbon dioxide CO₂ the particles arrangement will change from ordered in solid state to completely disordered in gaseous state.

Bond type, gram formula mass and molecular polarity are not changed in the described physical transformation.
