How much heat has been lost when a 78 g piece of copper is placed into a calorimeter and cools from 120°C to

Chemistry

The amount of heat lost by the copper is 2402.4 J.

To Calculate the amount of heat lost, we use the formula below.

<h3>Formula:</h3>
  • Q = cm(t₂-t₁)................. Equation 1

<h3>Where:</h3>
  • Q = Amount of heat lost
  • c = specific heat capacity of copper
  • m = mass of copper
  • t₂ = Final temperature
  • t₁ = Initial temperature

From the question,

<h3>Given:</h3>
  • m = 78 g
  • c = 0.385 J/g°C
  • t₂ = 120°C
  • t₁ = 40°C

Substitute these values into equation 1.

  • Q = 78(0.385)(120-40)
  • Q = 2402.4 J

Hence, The heat lost by the copper is 2402.4 J

A certain material has a density of 0.2 g/ml is this material good for building a bridge or for making cushions for a couch
MArishka [77]

A bridge must be made of metal or concrete or other materials that are strong enough to withstand the forces of the traffic passing over it. I doubt that the material could do that.

If the substance is a metal foam, it would make a rather hard cushion.

If the substance is too soft, it would make a cushion.

If the substance has the right combination of softness and elasticity so that it returns to its original shape when you get up, it might be a good material for a cushion.

A student used 1.168g of an unknown weak acid and titrated it against 28.75 mL of 0.105M NaOH to reach the equivalence point. Wh
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

The molar mass of the unknown acid is 386.8 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the weak acid = 1.168 grams

volume of NaOH = 28.75 mL = 0.02875 L

Molarity of NaOH = 0.105 M

Since we only know 1 equivalence point, we suppose the acid is monoprotic

Step 2: Calculate moles NaOH

Moles NaOH = molarity NaOH * volume NaOH

Moles NaOH = 0.105 M * 0.02875 L

Moles NaOH = 0.00302 moles

We need 0.00302 moles of weak acid to neutralize the NaOH

Step 3: Calculate molar mass of weak acid

Molar mass = mass / moles

Molar mass = 1.168 grams / 0.00302 moles

Molar mass = 386.8 g/mol

The molar mass of the unknown acid is 386.8 g/mol

Which of the following will decrease the frequency of collisions?
kogti [31]

Answer:

The question isn't worded properly, but if 1 or 2 are DECREASED, the frequency of collisions of specified molecules will decrease.

Explanation:

Catalysts only facilitate reaction once molecules collide. Increased temperature makes molecules move more, and thus collide more. For concentration, if there are more molecules in the same amount of room/liquid, there will be more collisions because there are more of the molecules to collide.

PLEASE HELP ME!!! ASAP
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Theoretical yield of the reaction = 34 g

Excess reactant is hydrogen

Limiting reactant is nitrogen

Explanation:

Given there is 100 g of nitrogen and 100 g of hydrogen

Number of moles of nitrogen = 100 ÷ 28 = 3·57

Number of moles of hydrogen = 100 ÷ 2 = 50

Reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen yields ammonia according to the following chemical equation

N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3

From the above chemical equation for every mole of nitrogen that reacts, 3 moles of hydrogen will be required and 2 moles of ammonia will be formed

Now we have 3·57 moles of nitrogen and therefore we require 3 × 3·57 moles of hydrogen

⇒ We require 10·71 moles of hydrogen

But we have 50 moles of hydrogen

∴ Limiting reactant is nitrogen and excess reactant is hydrogen

From the balanced chemical equation the yield will be 2 × 3·57 moles of ammonia

Molecular weight of ammonia = 17 g

∴ Theoretical yield of the reaction = 2 × 3·57 × 17 = 121·38 g
