A 36.0−g sample of an unknown metal at 99°C was placed in a constant-pressure calorimeter containing 70.0 g of water at 24.0°C. The final temperature of the system was found to be 28.4°C. Calculate the specific heat of the metal. (The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 12.4 J/°C.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 0.52849 j /g °C

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of metal = 36g

Δ Temperature of metal = (28.4 - 99)°C = - 70.6°C

Mass of water = 70g

Δ in temperature of water = (28.4 - 24.0) = 4.4°C

Heat lost by metal = (heat gained by water + heat gained by calorimeter)

Quantity of heat(q) = mcΔT

Where; m = mass of object ; c = specific heat capacity of object

Heat lost by metal:

- (36 × c × - 70.6) = 2541.6c - - - - (1)

Heta gained by water and calorimeter :

(70 × 4.184 × 4.4) + (12.4 × 4.4) = 1288.672 + 54.56 = 1343.232 - - - - (2)

Equating (1) and (2)

2541.6c = 1343.232

c = 1343.232 / 2541.6

c = 0.52849 j /g °C

Identify the type of reaction in the following and define each of them. (i) Carbohydrates are broken down to form glucose. (ii) Tarnishing of copper. (iii) Heating of ferric oxide with aluminium powder. (iv) Blue colour of copper sulphate solution disappears when zinc dust is added to it. (v) Dilute sulphuric acid is adeed to sodium hydroxide solution .

Answers

Answer:

(i) hydrolysis; (ii) combination;  (iii) single replacement;  

(iv) single replacement; (v) double replacement

Explanation:

(i) Carbohydrates are broken down to form glucose

Carbohydrates must react with water to form glucose.

For example,

C₆H₁₁O₅-O-C₆H₁₁O₆ + H-O-H ⟶ 2C₆H₁₂O₆

       maltose                                          glucose

This is a hydrolysis reaction — the reaction of a compound in which a molecule of water breaks one or more bonds to form new substances.

The reaction is not a decomposition (a reaction in which a compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances), because two different molecules are involved.

(ii) Tarnishing of copper.

Cu + S ⟶ CuS

This is a combination or synthesis reaction — in which two or more substances combine to form a single new substance.

(iii) Heating of ferric oxide with aluminium powder

Fe₂O₃ + 2Al ⟶ Al₂O₃ + 2Fe

This is a single displacement or single replacement reaction — in which one element replaces another element in a compound.

Here, Al is replacing Fe in its oxide.

(iv) Blue colour of copper sulphate solution disappears when zinc dust is added to it

CuSO₄ + Zn ⟶ ZnSO₄  + Cu

This is a single displacement or single replacement reaction.

Here, Zn is replacing Cu in its sulfate.

(v) Dilute sulfuric acid is added to sodium hydroxide solution  

H₂SO₄ + 2NaOH ⟶ Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

2H⁺, SO₄²⁻ + 2Na⁺OH⁻ ⟶ 2Na⁺, SO₄²⁻ + 2H-OH

This is a double displacement or double replacement reaction — in which the positive and negative ions of two ionic compounds exchange places to form two new compounds.

The Na⁺ ions are replacing the H⁺ ions in the sulfuric, forming sodium sulfate and water,

Suppose you carry out a titration involving 3.00 molar HCl and an unknown concentration of KOH. To bring the reaction to its end point, you add 35.3 milliliters of HCl to 105.0 milliliters of KOH. What is the concentration of the KOH solution?

Answers

Answer: The concentration of the KOH solution is 1.01 M

Explanation:

According to neutralization law:

[tex]n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2[/tex]

where,

[tex]n_1[/tex] = basicity of [tex]HCl[/tex] = 1

[tex]n_2[/tex] = acidity of KOH = 1

[tex]M_1[/tex] = concentration of HCl = 3.00 M

[tex]M_2[/tex] = concentration of KOH = ?

[tex]V_1[/tex] = volume of HCl = 35.3 ml

[tex]V_2[/tex] = volume of KOH = 105.0 ml

Putting the values we get:

[tex]1\times 3.00\times 35.3=1\times M_2\times 105.0[/tex]

[tex]M_2=1.01[/tex]

Thus the concentration of the KOH solution is 1.01 M

A 25.0 mL sample of a solution of an unknown compound is titrated with a 0.115 M NaOH solution. The titration curve above was obtained with pH at equivalence point of around 8. The unknown compound is ________.

Answers

Answer:

Weak acid

Explanation:

A titration curve is a graphical description of the change in pH of the solution in the conical flask as the reagent is added from the burette. A titration curve can be plotted for the different kinds of acid and base titrations. The volume of the titrant is always plotted as the independent variable and the pH of the solution as the dependent variable. The equivalence point is read off from the titration curve. A titration curve is very important because it shows the pH at various points during the titration.

A weak acid/strong base titration leads to an equivalence point above 7. From the question, we were told that the pH at equivalence point lies around 8. Hence the unknown substance must be a weak acid.

answer the question briefly: How can atom collapse and why are atoms stable?

Answers

The nuclei of atoms become unstable when the repelling forces of the protons cannot be balanced by the number of neutrons in the nucleus. It then re-arranges itself randomly to a more stable configuration by emitting any of a series of particles. During radioactive decay, an atom does not collapse.

Since an atom is mostly empty space - that is it’s nucleus is relatively distant from the electron shells so, in the presence of extreme forces such as gravity inthe collapse of a large star, the inward pressures on the atom overcome the natural balance of the atomic structure and the ‘empty space’ disappears as nuclei are mashed together by the intense pressures and a neutron star is formed. Under even more external pressure, even the neutron star can collapse to form a black hole.

calculate the mass of sodium sulphate required to prepare its 20%of solution in 100 g ofwater​

Answers

Answer:

25 g

Explanation:

Mass percent implies the mass of solute dissolved in a solution

Mass percent = mass of solute/mass of solute + mass of solvent × 100/1

Since mass percent concentration= 20%

Mass of solvent = 100g

Let mass of solute = x

Hence;

20 = x/x +100 ×100/1

20/100= x/x + 100

0.2 = x/x + 100

0.2(x + 100) = x

0.2x + 20 = x

20 = x - 0.2x

20 = 0.8x

x= 20/0.8

x= 25 g

A student has a piece of aluminum metal what is the most reasonable assumption a student can make about the metal

Answers

Answer:

- It could be stretched into a thin wire.

Explanation:

As per the question, the most rational claim that the student can make about the aluminum metal is that 'it could be stretched into a thin wire' without breaking which shows its ductility. It is one of the most significant characteristics of a metal. Metals can conduct electricity in any state and not only when melted. Thus, option A is wrong. Options C and D are incorrect as metals neither have the same shape always nor do they break on hitting with a hammer. Therefore, option E is the correct answer.

Answer:

Yes, the other person is correct; the answer is E. It could be stretched into a thin wire.

Explanation:

Here is why it is NOT B:

"A briskly burning wood fire is plenty hot enough to melt aluminum. If it's just smoldering (like a lot of campfires) it won't create enough heat to melt aluminum."

Therefore, CAMPFIRES are not likely to melt aluminum if it is thrown in. Aluminum's melting point is 1,221 ° F. Typical campfires are about 900 ° F.

D Serum Levels Of 4 Mcg/mL, Calculate The Dose, In Milligrams, For A 120-lb Patient That May Be Expected To Result In A Blood Serum Gentamicin Level Of 4.5 Mcg/mL. This problem has been solved! See the answer If the administration of gentamicin at a dose of 1.75 mg/kg is determined to result in peak blood serum levels of 4 mcg/mL, calculate the dose, in milligrams, for a 120-lb patient that may be expected to result in a blood serum gentamicin level of 4.5 mcg/mL.

Answers

Answer:

The patient requires a dose of 107.2 mg of gentamicin

Explanation:

A dosage of 1.75 mg per Kilogram body weight results in blood serum levels of 4.5 mcg/mL

This means that; 1.75 mg/ kg = 4.0 mcg/mL

Therefore, dosage of gentamicin in  mg/kg that will result in 4.5 mcg/mL blood serum level = (1.75 mg/Kg * 4.5 mcg/mL) / 4.0 mcg/mL

Dosageof gentamicin = 1.97 mg/Kg

1-lb = 0.453592 Kg

Weight of 120-lb patient in Kg = 120 * 0.453592 = 54.43 Kg

Dose in mg required by patient = 1.97 mg/Kg * 54.43 Kg = 107.2 mg

Therefore, the 120-lb patient requires a dose of 107.2 mg of gentamicin to result in a blood serum level of 4.5 mcg/mL

Which condition must be met in order for an equation to be balanced? The elements in the reactants are the same as the elements in the products.

Answer:

The number of atoms in the reactants equals the number of atoms in the products.

Explanation:

In every chemical reaction equation there are two sides; the reactants sides and the products side. The reactants side shows the species that combine to form the products. On both sides of the reaction equation, chemical species are found to be composed of atoms.

The major principle in balancing of chemical reaction equations is that the number of atoms of each element in the reactants side must be equal to the number of atoms of the same element on the products side. Once this condition is achieved, we can now say that the chemical equation is balanced.

144g of KCl dissolved in 1000cm3of water at 90oC. Calculate the solubility of KCl at this temperature. (K=39, Cl=35.5, 1dm3=1000cm3).

Answers

Answer:

The solubility of KCl is 1.93 mol/dm³

Explanation:

The information given are;

The mass of the potassium chloride, KCl = 144 g

The volume of the water solvent = 1000 cm³ = 1 dm³

The temperature of the solvent = 90 °C

The atomic mass of potassium, K = 39 u

The atomic mass of chlorine, Cl = 35.5 u

The number of moles of potassium in one mole of potassium chloride, KCl = 1 mole

The number of moles of chlorine in one mole of potassium chloride, KCl = 1 mole

The molar mass of the potassium chloride = 39 + 35.5 = 74.5 g/mol

The number of moles, n, of potassium chloride, KCl in 144 g of potassium chloride, KCl is given as follows

n = Mass/(Molar mass) = 144/74.5 = 1.93 moles

1.93 moles will dissolve in 1 dm³

Therefore, the solubility of KCl is 1.93 mol/dm³.
