Answer:
The calorimeter constant is = 447 J/°C
Explanation:
The heat absorbed or released (Q) by water can be calculated with the following expression:
Q = c × m × ΔT
where,
c is the specific heat
m is the mass
ΔT is the change in temperature
The water that is initially in the calorimeter (w₁) absorbs heat while the water that is added (w₂) later releases heat. The calorimeter also absorbs heat.
The heat absorbed by the calorimeter (Q) can be calculated with the following expression:
Q = C × ΔT
where,
C is the calorimeter constant
The density of water is 1.00 g/mL so 50.0 mL = 50.0 g. The sum of the heat absorbed and the heat released is equal to zero (conservation of energy).
Qabs + Qrel = 0
Qabs = - Qrel
Qcal + Qw₁ = - Qw₂
Qcal = - (Qw₂ + Qw₁)
Ccal . ΔTcal = - (cw . mw₁ . ΔTw₁ + cw . mw₂ . ΔTw₂)
Ccal . (30.31°C - 22.6°C) = - [(4.184 J/g.°C) × 50.0 g × (30.31°C - 22.6°C) + (4.184 J/g.°C) × 50.0 g × (30.31°C - 54.5°C)]
Ccal = 447 J/°C
Answer:
56.82 Kg
Explanation:
Given data:
1 Kg = 2.20 lbs
Number of kilogram in 125 lbs = ?
Solution:
lbs is used for pound. lb is abbreviation of libra. It is Latin word meaning balance.
Both kilogram and pounds are units of mass. Pound is smaller unit than kilogram.
one Kg = 2.20 lbs
Number of kg in 125 lbs:
125 lbs × 1 Kg/2.20 lbs
125 lbs.Kg/2.20 lbs
56.82 Kg
If you have to write the chemical formula of a simple, binary ionic compound given the name of the compound, you follow a set of three steps. Let's go through them using magnesium chloride as an example. Write the symbols for the cation and the anion: Mg and Cl. Determine the charge on the cation and anion.
Answer:
Zn(s) → Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻
Explanation:
Let us consider the complete redox reaction:
Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
This is a redox reaction because, both oxidation and reduction is simultaneously taking place.
- Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
- Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
- An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
Here Zn(s) is undergoing oxidation from OS 0 to +2
And H in HCl (aq) is undergoing reduction from OS +1 to 0.
Therefore, for this reaction;
Oxidation Half equation is:
Zn(s) → Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻
Reduction Half equation is:
2H⁺ + 2e⁻ → H₂(g)
the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance or object, especially as expressed according to a comparative scale and shown by a thermometer or perceived by touch. So I would have to go with A.
