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.

A flashbulb of volume 2.70 mL contains O2(g) at a pressure of 2.30 atm and a temperature of 30.0 °C. How many grams of O2(g) doe
Sholpan [36]
P = 2.30 atm

Volume in liter = 2.70 mL / 1000 => 0.0027 L

Temperature in K = 30.0 + 273 => 303 K

R = 0.082 atm

molar mass O2 = 31.9988 g/mol

number of moles O2 :

P * V = n * R* T

2.30 * 0.0027 = n * 0.082 * 303

0.00621 = n * 24.846

n = 0.00621 / 24.846

n = 0.0002499 moles of O2

Mass of O2:

n = m / mm

0.0002499 = m / 31.9988

m = 0.0002499 * 31.9988

m = 0.008 g

Maltase is an enzyme that breaks down maltose. If a maltase enzyme has just completed catalyzing the decomposition of maltose, t
netineya [11]
Yes it is available. It will continue catalyzing the reactions until it becomes completely consumed. That's how enzymes work. They work and are eventually consumed in the process completely without altering the reaction in any way other than speeding it up.

what is the pressure, in atmospheres, of 2.97 mol h2 gas if it has a volume of 73 liters when the temperature is 298 k? 0.50 atm
Triss [41]
P x V = n x R x T

P x 73 = 2.97 x 0.082 x 298

P x 73 = 72.57492

P = 72.57492 / 73

P = 1.0 atm

hope this helps!
