hi have a nice day

will be less than 26 °C as water has a relatively higher specific heat than sand.

Explanation:

The specific heat of a substance is the amount of heat energy absorbed by one unit of mass of the substance when its temperature increases one unit.

From that, you can derive the equation for the specific heat of a substance:

specific heat = heat / (mass × ΔT)

Thus, assuming that all the heat provided by the lamp to both samples is the same and, as given, the amount (mass) of both samples is also the same, you have that the specific heat of the samples will be:

specific heat = constant / ΔT

So, specific heat and ΔT are inversely related.

It is known that water has a higher specific heat than sand (that is why the sand on the shore of a beach is, during the day, hotter than the water and your feet get burned when you walk on a sandy beach on a sunny day

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

8.3 kJ

Explanation:

In this problem we have to consider that both water and the calorimeter absorb the heat of combustion, so we will calculate them:

q for water:

q H₂O = m x c x ΔT where m: mass of water = 944 mL x 1 g/mL = 944 g

c: specific heat of water = 4.186 J/gºC

ΔT : change in temperature = 2.06 ºC

so solving for q :

q H₂O = 944 g x 4.186 J/gºC x 2.06 ºC = 8,140 J

For calorimeter

q calorimeter = C x ΔT where C: heat capacity of calorimeter = 69.6 ºC

ΔT : change in temperature = 2.06 ºC

q calorimeter = 69.60J x 2.06 ºC = 143.4 J

Total heat released = 8,140 J + 143.4 J = 8,2836 J

Converting into kilojoules by dividing by 1000 we will have answered the question:

8,2836 J x 1 kJ/J = 8.3 kJ

The volume of H₂O = 5 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

5L of H₂ and 3L O₂

Reaction

2H₂ (g) + O₂(g) ⇒2H₂O(g)

Required

The volume of H₂O

Solution

Avogadro's hypothesis:

<em>In the same T,P and V, the gas contains the same number of molecules </em>

So the ratio of gas volume will be equal to the ratio of gas moles

mol H₂ = 5, mol O₂ = 3

Find limiting reactants

From equation, mol ratio H₂ : O₂ = 2 : 1, so :

$\tt H_2\div O_2=\dfrac{mol~H_2}{coefficient}\div \dfrac{mol~O_2}{coefficient}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{2}\div \dfrac{3}{1}=2.5\div 3\rightarrow H_2~limiting~reactant(smaller~ratio)$

Find volume H₂O

mol H₂O based on mol H₂, and from equation mol ratio H₂ : H₂O=2 : 2, so mol H₂O = 5 mol and the volume also 5 L
