The heat that is required to raise the temperature of an object is calculated through the equation,
heat = mass x specific heat x (T2 - T1)
Specific heat is therefore calculated through the equation below,
specific heat = heat / (mass x (T2 - T1))
Substituting,
specific heat = 645 J / ((28.4 g)(15.5 - - 11.6))
The value of specific heat from above equation is 0.838 J/g°C.
Aqueous solutions of barium nitrate and potassium phosphate are mixed.
What is the precipitate and how many molecules are formed?
Barium nitrate has a chemical symbol of Ba(NO3)2 and potassium phosphate
has a chemical symbol K2PO4. The reaction between these two is a double
replacement reaction yielding barium phosphate and potassium nitrate.
The chemical equation representing the reaction is,
Ba(NO3)2 + K2PO4 à KNO3 +
BaPO4
