The mass of glycerol to that would need to be combusted to heat 500.0g of water from 20.0°C to 100.0°C is; 9.32 grams.

We must establish the fact that energy is neither created nor destroyed.

Therefore, the amount of heat absorbed by water is equal to the amount of heat released by the combustion of glycerol.

Total heat absorbed by water, H(water) is;

Q(water) = m C (T2 - T1)

Q(water) = 500 × 4.184 × (100-20)

Q(water) = 167.36 kJ

Consequently, the quantity of heat evolved by the combustion of glycerol is;

Q(glycerol) = 167,360 J = n × ΔH°comb

where, n = no. of moles of glycerol.

167.36 kJ= n × 1654 kJ/mole

n = 167.36/1654

n = 0.1012 moles of glycerol.

Therefore, mass of glycerol combusted, m is;

m = n × Molar mass

m = 0.1012 × 92.09

m = 9.32 g.

I have attached all the problems, but really if you just do one so I understand how to do it, that would be great!
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Answer of question a is 345J.

Explanation:

In question a following is given in data:

-mass of iron (m) = 10.0 g

-temperature (ΔT) = final temperature- initial temperature= 100-25=  75 degree Celsius

-Specific Heat capacity of iron (c)= 0.46J/g°C.

Heat (Q)=?

Solution:

Formula for Heat is :

Q=m x c x ΔT

Q= 10 x 0.46 x 75

Q= 345 J.  

so, 345 joules of heat is needed to increase the temperature of 10 grams of iron.

  • From the above formula all other questions can easily be solved from the same procedure.

Nitrogen monoxide and oxygen, both colorless gases, form a red-brown gas when mixed. Nitrogen monoxide and oxygen are called the
daser333 [38]

Answer:

Nitrogen monoxide and oxygen are called the reactants

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Nitrogen monoxide = NO

Oxygen = O2

Step 2: Balanced equation

2NO + O2 → 2NO2

This means that 2 moles of NO will be consumed and and 1 mole of O2 to produce 2 moles of NO2

This means NO2 is the prodcut that is produced.

NO +O2 react with eachother, to form NO2

This means nitrogen monoxide (NO) and Oxygen (O2) are called the reactants.
