A sample of propane (C3H8) has a mass of 0. 47 g. The sample is burned in a bomb calorimeter that has a mass of 1. 350 kg and a

specific heat of 5. 82 J/(g • °C). How much energy is released by the reaction if the temperature of the calorimeter rises by 2. 87°C? Use q equals m C subscript p Delta T. 7. 85 kJ 10. 6 kJ 22. 5 kJ 47. 9 kJ.

The amount of heat released by the sample has been 22.54 kJ. Thus, option C is correct.

The specific heat has been defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance by 1 degree Celsius.

The specific heat has been expressed as:

q=mc\Delta T

<h3 /><h3>Computation for the heat absorbed</h3>

The iron and calorimeter are in side the closed system. Thus, the energy released by the sample, has been equivalent to the energy absorbed by the calorimeter.

q_{released}=q_{absorbed}\\&#10;q_{released}=m_{calorimeter}\;c_{calorimeter}\;\Delta T

The given mass of calorimeter has been, m_{calorimeter}=1350\;\rm g

The specific heat of the calorimeter has been, c_{calorimeter}=5.82\;\rm J/g^\circ C

The change in temperature of the calorimeter has been, \Delta T=2.87^\circ \rm C

Substituting the values for heat released:

q_{released}= 1350\;\text g\;\times\;5.82\;\text J/\text g^\circ \text C\;\times\;2.87^\circ \text C\\&#10;q_{released}=22,549.5\;\text J\\&#10;q_{released}}=22.54\;\rm kJ

The amount of heat released by the sample has been 22.54 kJ. Thus, option C is correct.

How does carbon cycle through the ocean, atmosphere, soil, and biosphere?
saw5 [17]
Carbon moves from one storage reservoir to another through a variety of mechanisms. For example, in the food chain, plants move carbon from the atmosphere into the biosphere through photosynthesis. Respiration, excretion, and decomposition release the carbon back into the atmosphere or soil, continuing the cycle.
