A piece of iron metal is heated to 155 degrees C and placed into a calorimeter that contains 50.0 mL of water at 18.7 degrees C.

The temperature of the water rises to 26.4 degrees C. The specific heat of iron of iron is 0.444 J/g degrees C. Assuming no loss of heat to the surroundings, what is the mass of the iron?
A-26.2 g
B-28.3 g
C-29.2 g
D-28.2 g

Answer:

D = 28.2g

Explanation:

Initial temperature of metal (T1) = 155°C

Initial Temperature of calorimeter (T2) = 18.7°C

Final temperature of solution (T3) = 26.4°C

Specific heat capacity of water (C2) = 4.184J/g°C

Specific heat capacity of metal (C1) = 0.444J/g°C

Volume of water = 50.0mL

Assuming no heat loss

Heat energy lost by metal = heat energy gain by water + calorimeter

Heat energy (Q) = MC∇T

M = mass

C = specific heat capacity

∇T = change in temperature

Mass of metal = M1

Mass of water = M2

Density = mass / volume

Mass = density * volume

Density of water = 1g/mL

Mass(M2) = 1 * 50

Mass = 50g

Heat loss by the metal = heat gain by water + calorimeter

M1C1(T1 - T3) = M2C2(T3 - T2)

M1 * 0.444 * (155 - 26.4) = 50 * 4.184 * (26.4 - 18.7)

0.444M1 * 128.6 = 209.2 * 7.7

57.0984M1 = 1610.84

M1 = 1610.84 / 57.0984

M1 = 28.21g

The mass of the metal is 28.21g

How many liters of cane juice is needed to supply 5g sucrose if cane juice contains 12% sucrose
pickupchik [31]

Given parameters:

Mass of sucrose  = 5g

Density of sucrose  = 1.12g/mL

Percentage of sucrose per liter of cane juice  = 12%

Unknown:

Volume of cane juice needed = ?

We need to establish the volume - density relationship. Density is the mass of a substance per unit volume.

Mathematically;

                Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}

Now solve for the volume of sucrose;

                  1.12g/mL = \frac{5}{Volume}

       Volume  = \frac{5}{1.12}    =  4.46mL   = 4.46 x 10⁻³L since 1000mL  = 1L

Since 12% of 1 liter of cane juice is sucrose;

                    12% of  x  liter of cane juice  = 4.46 x 10⁻³L

                   Volume of cane juice  = 4.46 x 10⁻³ x \frac{100}{12}   = 0.037L

Volume of cane juice is  0.037L

Describe the many different forms of energy involved with stretching and releasing a rubber band. What other processes are simil
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Conversion of kinetic energy to potential energy (chemo mechanical energy)

In the state of rest, the rubber is a tangled mass of long chained cross-linked polymer that due to their disorderliness are in a state of increased entropy. By pulling on the polymer, the applied kinetic energy stretches the polymer into straight chains, giving them order and reducing their entropy. The stretched rubber then has energy stored in the form of chemo mechanical energy which is a form of potential energy

Conversion of the stored potential energy in the stretched to kinetic energy

By remaining in a stretched condition, the rubber is in a state of high potential energy, when the force holding the rubber in place is removed, due to the laws of thermodynamics, the polymers in the rubber curls back to their state of "random" tangled mass releasing the stored potential energy in the process and doing work such as moving items placed in the rubber's path of motion such as an object that has weight, w then takes up the kinetic energy 1/2×m×v² which can can result in the flight of the object.
