A 55.9 g sample of water at 99.2 °c is placed in a constant pressure calorimeter. then, 23.9 g of zinc metal at 21.1 °c is added

to the water and the temperature drops to 96.9 °c. what is the specific heat capacity of the zinc metal measured in this experiment?

<span>Heat released by the water: mass * specific heat * ΔT

Heat released by the water = 55.9 g * 1 cal / (°C g) * (99.2 - 96.9 )°C

Heat absorbed by the zinc metal = mass * specifi heat * ΔT

Heat absorbed by the zinc metal =  23.9 g * Cp * (96.9 - 21.1) °C

Heat absorbed by zinc metal = heat released by water

=> 23.9 * Cp * 75.8 = 55.9 * 1 * 2.3

=> Cp = 128.57 / 1811.62 = 0.0071 cal / (g°C)

Answer: 0.0071 cal / (g°C)

What volume in liters of carbon monoxide will be required to produce 18.9 L of nitrogen in the reaction below
mina [271]

Answer:

37.8 L OF CARBON MONOXIDE IS REQUIRED TO PRODUCE 18.9 L OF NITROGEN.

Explanation:

Equation for the reaction:

2 CO + 2 NO ------> N2 + 2 CO2

2 moles of carbon monoxide reacts with 2 moles of NO to form 1 mole of nitrogen

At standard temperature and pressure, 1 mole of a gas contains 22.4 dm3 volume.

So therefore, we can say:

2 * 22.4 L of CO produces  22.4 L of N2

44.8 L of CO produces 22.4 L of N2

Since, 18.9 L of Nitrogen is produced, the volume of CO needed is:

44.8 L of CO = 22.4 L of N

x L = 18.9 L

x L = 18.9 * 44.8 / 22.4

x L = 18.9 * 2

x = 37.8 L

The volume of Carbon monoxide required to produce 18.9 L of N2 is 37.8 L

Which compound is an Arrhenius base?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
I was hoping that some choices would be given to choose from. As there are no choices given, so i am answering the question based on my knowledge and hope that it comes to your help. Calcium hydroxide is a good example of Arrhenius base. An Arrhenius base is actually a substance that releases a hydroxyl ion in water.
