How many grams of water when supplied with 348j of heat will gain a temperature of 5.2°c?

Zielflug [23.3K]

We can use the heat equation,

Q = mcΔT

Where Q is the amount of energy transferred (J), m is the mass of the substance (kg), c is the specific heat (J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹) and ΔT is the temperature difference (°C).

In this problem there is no any data about initial temperature of the water. So, we can assume that given temperature of 5.2 °C as the temperature difference.

Q = 348 J

m = ?

c = 4.186 J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹

ΔT = 5.2 °C

By applying the formula,
348 J = m x 4.186 J g⁻¹ °C⁻¹ x 5.2 °C
m = 15.99 g

Hence, the grams of water is 15.99.

What was the Copernican revolution?

Zolol [24]

The Copernican revolution is about the model of the solar system and was given by a polish astronomer. Option C. The discovery that the universe was expanding.

The Copernican Revolution become the paradigm shift from the Ptolemaic model of the heavens, which described the cosmos as having Earth stationery on the center of the universe, to the heliocentric version with the solar on the center of the solar system.

Copernican Revolution, shift the subject of astronomy from a geocentric understanding of the universe, focused around Earth, to heliocentric knowledge, concentrated across the sun, as articulated by the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus.

This revolution changed the way of thinking of the solar system. Earlier it was thought that earth is in the center of the solar sysytem,i.e; people believed in the geocentric model, but according to Copernicus the solar system has the sun at the center and the remaining planets revolve around it i.e he believed in a heliocentric model.

A chemist adds 0.50 mol acetic acid (CH3CO2H) to a solution. What else should be added to maximize the buffering effect?

musickatia [10]

.50,mol sodium acetate (NaCH3CO2) should be added to maximize the buffering effect.

A buffering effect is a process in which a psychosocial resource reduces the impact of life stress on psychological well-being. Having such a resource contributes to adjustment because persons are less affected by negative life events.

A compound is 7.74% hydrogen and 92.26% carbon by mass. At 100°C a 0.6883 g sample of the gas occupies 250 mL when the pressure

ycow [4]

Answer: The molecular formula for the compound is $C_6H_6$

Explanation:

We are given:

Percentage of C = 92.26 %

Percentage of H = 7.74 %

Let the mass of compound be 100 g. So, percentages given are taken as mass.

Mass of C = 92.26 g

Mass of H = 7.74 g

To formulate the empirical formula, we need to follow some steps:

Step 1: Converting the given masses into moles.

Moles of Carbon = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Carbon}}{\text{Molar mass of Carbon}}=\frac{92.26g}{12g/mole}=7.68moles$

Moles of Hydrogen = $\frac{\text{Given mass of Hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of Hydrogen}}=\frac{7.74g}{1g/mole}=7.74moles$

Step 2: Calculating the mole ratio of the given elements.

For the mole ratio, we divide each value of the moles by the smallest number of moles calculated which is 7.68 moles.

For Carbon = $\frac{7.68}{7.68}=1$

For Hydrogen = $\frac{7.74}{7.68}=1$

Step 3: Taking the mole ratio as their subscripts.

The ratio of C : H = 1 : 1

The empirical formula for the given compound is $CH$

Calculating the molar mass of the compound:

To calculate the molecular mass, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

Or,

$PV=\frac{m}{M}RT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 820 torr

V = Volume of gas = 250 mL = 0.250 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL )

m = mass of gas = 0.6883 g

M = Molar mass of gas = ?

R = Gas constant = $62.3637\text{ L. torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of the gas = $100^oC=(100+273)K=373K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$820torr\times 0.250L=\frac{0.6883g}{M}\times 62.3637\text{ L torr }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 373K\\\\M=\frac{0.6883\times 62.3637\times 373}{820\times 0.250}=78.10g/mol$
