Answer: 1709.4 Joules
Explanation:
The quantity of Heat Energy (Q) released on cooling a heated substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)
Thus, Q = MCΦ
Since Q = ?
M = 18.5 grams
Recall that the specific heat capacity of copper C = 0.385 J/g.C
Φ = 285°C - 45°C = 240°C
Then, Q = MCΦ
Q = 18.5grams x 0.385 J/g.C x 240°C
Q = 1709.4 Joules
Thus, 1709.4 Joules is released when copper is cooled.
Answer: a = 2 ; f = 5 ; b = 2 ; g = 2 ; c = 2 ; h = 2 ; d = 4 ; i = 5 ; e = 3 ; j = 7
Explanation: Some rules to follow while calculating sig figs is
1. If a number like 4500 is present, only two sig figs are counted, but none of the zeros are, but if 4500. has a decimal point present, then you should count all the numbers available.
2. If a number like .0005 is present, only count 5 as a sig fig, however if the number is .00050, count the 0 after the 5 in this example (this would then have two sig figs.
<span>A compound is found to be 40.0% carbon, 6.7% hydrogen and 53.5% oxygen. Its molecular mass is 60. g/mol.
</span>Q1)
Empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components making up a compound.
the percentages have been given, therefore we can calculate for 100 g of the compound.
C H O
Mass in 100 g 40.0 g 6.7 g 53.5 g
Molar mass 12 g/mol 1 g/mol 16 g/mol
Number of moles 40.0/12= 3.33 6.7/1 = 6.7 53.5/16 = 3.34
Divide by the least number of moles
3.33/3.33 = 1 6.7/3.33 = 2.01 3.34/3.33 = 1.00
after rounding off
C - 1
H - 2
O - 1
Empirical formula - CH₂O
Q2)
Molecular formula is the actual number of components making up the compound.
To find the number of empirical units we have to find the mass of one empirical unit.
Mass of one empirical unit = CH₂O - 12 + (1x2) + 16 = 30 g
Mass of one mole of compound = 60 g
Number of empirical units = 60 g / 30 g = 2
Therefore molecular formula - 2(CH₂O)
Molecular formula - C₂H₄O₂
During this process. A. Solid turns directly into a Gas.
C is the answer.
The temperature T<span> in degrees Celsius (°C) is equal to the temperature </span>T<span> in Kelvin (K) minus 273</span>°.
