A chemist is asked to determine the specific heat capacity of an unknown mineral. The 149-g sample was heated to 92.7°C and placed into a calorimeter containing 81.4 g of water at 20.0°C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter was 12.8 J/K. The final temperature in the calorimeter was 23.7°C. What is the specific heat capacity (in J/g°C) of the mineral? Enter to 4 decimal places.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The specific heat of the mineral is 0.1272J/g°C

Explanation:

The sample is given energy to the calorimeter and the sample of water.

The energy released for the sample is equal to the energy absorbed for both the calorimeter and the water:

C(Sample)*m*ΔT = C(Calorimeter)*ΔT + C(water)*m*ΔT

Where C is specific heat

m is mass of the sample and water

And ΔT is change in temperature

C(Sample)*149g*(92.7°C-23.7°C) = 12.8J/K*(23.7°C-20.0°C) + 4.184J/g°C*81.4g*(23.7°C-20.0°C)

C(Sample)*10281g°C = 47.36J + 1260.1J

C(Sample) = 0.1272J/g°C

The specific heat of the mineral is 0.1272J/g°C

Answer 2

The specific heat of the mineral is 0.1272J/g°C

Calculation of the specific heat:

The energy released for the sample should be equivalent to the energy absorbed for both the calorimeter and the water:

So,

C(Sample)*m*ΔT = C(Calorimeter)*ΔT + C(water)*m*ΔT

here C is specific heat

m is mass of the sample and water

And ΔT is change in temperature

Now

C(Sample)*149g*(92.7°C-23.7°C) = 12.8J/K*(23.7°C-20.0°C) + 4.184J/g°C*81.4g*(23.7°C-20.0°C)

C(Sample)*10281g°C = 47.36J + 1260.1J

C(Sample) = 0.1272J/g°C

How to Balance:

Hg + O2 → HgO

✅Word equation: Mercury + Oxygen gas → Mercury (II) oxide

✅ Type of Chemical Reaction: For this reaction we have a combination reaction.

✅ Balancing Strategies: To balance this equation it's probably easiest to begin by changing the coefficient in front of the HgO.

This is a combination reactions because the mercury (Hg) plus the oxygen gas (O2) come together to form the Mercury (II) oxide (MgO).

Air masses that form over large bodies of water are moist. What process determines the amount of moisture in an air mass?

Answers

Answer:

I don't know if this is right but try it. The amount of water vapor in the air is called absolute humidity. The amount of water vapor in the air as compared with the amount of water that the air could hold is called relative humidity. This amount of space in air that can hold water changes depending on the temperature and pressure.

What molar concentration of hydrochloric acid (HCl) is needed to prepare a disinfectant solution with a pH

Answers

Answer:

The correct approach is "3.1×10⁻³ M".

Explanation:

As we know,

[tex]pH=-log[H_{3}O^+][/tex]

[tex]pH=2.5[/tex]

[tex][H_{3}O]^+= \ ?[/tex]

Now,

⇒ [tex]-log[H_{3}O]^+=2.5[/tex]

⇒ [tex][H_{3}O]^+=10^{-2.5}[/tex]

⇒             [tex]=3.1\times 10^{-3} \ M[/tex]

So that the needed molar concentration of HCL will be:

How many atoms of N (nitrogen) are there in 1 mole of NH4Cl?

Answers

Answer:

In one mole of NH₄Cl  6.022 × 10²³ atoms of N are present.

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of N = ?

Number of moles of NH₄Cl = 1 mol

Solution:

First we have to calculate the number of  atoms in NH₄Cl .

There is only 1 mole of N in 1 mole of NH₄Cl .

Now we will calculate the number of atoms of nitrogen in one mole of N  by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1  mole of N = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of N

Thus in one mole of NH₄Cl  6.022 × 10²³ atoms of N are present.

In a certain chemical reaction, the bond energy of the products is 67 kJ and
that of the reactants is 52 kJ. Because energy is conserved, how much
potential energy does the system release or absorb?
O A. The reaction uses up 15 kJ of energy from the reaction system.
B. The reaction creates 15 kJ of energy when bonds form.
C. The reaction system absorbs 15 kJ of energy from the
surroundings.
O D. The surroundings absorb 15 kJ of potential energy.

Chemical bonds = potential energy

ΔH reaction from bond energy is a breaking and forming reaction of the 2 reacting molecules

Can be formulated:

ΔH rxn =  ∑ the energy of the reagent bonds broken - ∑ the energy of the bonds formed by the product

The bond energy of the products is 67 kJ and reactants 52 kJ

How many grams of glycine amide should be added to 1.00 g of glycine amide hydrochloride to give 100 mL of solution with pH 8.00

Answers

Answer:

0.4235 g of glycine amide should be added

Explanation:

From the given information:

The equation of the reaction can be illustrated as:

[tex]BH^+ \to B^+ + H ^-[/tex]

where:

mass of glycine amide hydrochloride = 1.00 g

Suppose x be the amount of (in grams) of glycine amide that is required to be added; Then:

[tex][BH^+] = \dfrac{1.00 \ g}{110.54 \ gmol \times 0.100 L}[/tex]

[tex][BH^+]=[/tex] 0.0905 M

So, For [B} i.e, for glycine amide

[tex][B] = \dfrac{x \ g}{74.083 \ gmol \times 0.100 L}[/tex]

[B] = 0.135x  M

[tex]\dfrac{[B]}{[BH^+]}=\dfrac{0.135x \ M}{0.0905 \ M }}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{[B]}{[BH^+]}=1.49x[/tex]

The log of the above question can be computed as:

[tex]log _{10}\dfrac{[B]}{[BH^+]}=log _{10}1.49x[/tex]

[tex]pH = pK_a + log _{10} \dfrac{[B]}{[BH^+]}[/tex]

8.00 = 8.20 + [tex]log _{10}(1.49x)[/tex]

8.00 - 8.20 = [tex]log _{10}(1.49x)[/tex]

-0.20 = [tex]log _{10}(1.49x)[/tex]

1.49 x = [tex]10^{-0.20}[/tex]

1.49 x = 0.631

x = 0.631/1.49

x =  0.4235 g
