Answer:

2J/g°C

Explanation:

Q = 5000J

Initial temperature (T1) = 20°C

Final temperature (T2) = 70°C

Specific heat capacity (c) = ?

Heat energy (Q) = mc∇T

Q = mc∇T

Q = mc(T2 - T1)

5000 = 50 × c × (70 - 20)

5000 = 50c × 50

5000 = 2500c

c = 5000 / 2500

c = 2J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of the substance is 2J/g°C

A cough syrup contains 5.0% ethyl alcohol, c2h5oh, by mass. if the density of the solution is 0.9928 g/ml, determine the molarit
WARRIOR [948]
To answer the question above, let us a basis of the 1000 mL or 1 L. 
                 volume = (0.9928 g/mL)(1000mL) = 992.8 g
Then, determine the mass of the alcohol by multiplying the total mass by the decimal equivalent of 5%. 
               mass of alcohol = 0.05(992.8 g) = 49.64 g
Then, determine the number of moles of ethyl alcohol by dividing the mass of alcohol by the molar mass (46 g/mol). 
                       n = 49.64 g/ (46 g/mol) = 1.08 mol
Then, divide the number of moles by the volume (our basis is 1 L)
                       molarity = 1.08 mol/ 1 L = 1.08 M

2. How much heat is released when 432g of water cools down from 710C to 180C?
nadya68 [22]
The heat released by the water when it cools down by a temperature difference AT

is Q = mC,AT

where

m=432 g is the mass of the water

C, = 4.18J/gºC

is the specific heat capacity of water

AT = 71°C -18°C = 530

is the decrease of temperature of the water

Plugging the numbers into the equation, we find

Q = (4329)(4.18J/9°C)(53°C) = 9.57. 104J

and this is the amount of heat released by the water.
