Molarity = mol/liter
0.708M = 0.098mol/L
Rearrange to find L:
0.098mol/0.708M = .138L
For every liter there is 1000 mL:
.138L • 1000mL =138mL KOH
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
