Answer:

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.843J/g°C

Explanation:

Hello,

To determine the specific heat capacity of the metal, we have to work on the principle of heat loss by the metal is equals to heat gained by the water.

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

Data,

Mass of metal (M1) = 512g

Mass of water (M2) = 325g

Initial temperature of the metal (T1) = 15°C

Initial temperature of water (T2) = 98°C

Final temperature of the mixture (T3) = 78°C

Specific heat capacity of metal (C1) = ?

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

Heat loss = heat gain

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

325 × 4.184 × (98 - 78) = 512 × C1 × (78 - 15)

1359.8 × 20 = 512C1 × 63

27196 = 32256C1

C1 = 27196 / 32256

C1 = 0.843J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of the metal is 0.843J/g°C

The reaction A + B → 2 C has the rate law rate = k[A][B]³. By what factor does the rate of reaction increase when [A] remains co
lawyer [7]

Answer:

8

Explanation:

To solve this question, we just need to put the new number into the equation. If [A] remain constant then that mean [A2]= [A1]. If B doubled, then that mean [B2]= 2[B2]. To find what factor does the rate of reaction increases, we need to divide the first reaction rate with the second. The calculation will be:

rate2/rate1= k[A2][B2]³     /     k[A1][B1]³

rate2/rate1= [A1][2B1]³      /     [A1][B1]³

rate2/rate1=  A1*8B1³       /     A1*B1³

rate2/rate1= 8/1= 8

The rate of reaction will be 8 times faster.

A mass of 5.4 grams of aluminum (al) reacts with an excess of copper (ii) chloride (cucl2) in solution, as shown below. 3cucl2 2
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

Mass of copper produced is 19.07g

Explanation:

Let's bring out the chemical equation;

3CuCl2 + 2Al → 2AlCl3 + 3Cu

3           :   2       :   2       : 3

Upon confirming that the reaction is indeed balanced, we can proceed.

The questions asks to calculate mass of Cu formed when a mass of 5.4g of Al is being used.

From the equation, what is the relationship between Al and Cu?

2 mol of Al would react to form 3 mol of Cu

Expressing this in terms of mass, we have;

mass = no. of moles * molar mass

Mass of Aluminium = 2 * 26.98 = 53.98 g

Mass of Copper = 3 * 63.546 = 190.638g

This means;

53.98 g of Al would react to form 190.638g of Cu

So how much Cu would form from 5.4 g of Al?

This leads us to;

53.98 = 190.638

5.4 = x

Upon cross multiplication, we are left with;

x = (190.638 * 5.4) / 53.98

x = 19.07 g

Mass of copper produced is 19.07g

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

There are necessaries 35,2g of NH₄NO₃ per 100,0g of water to decrease the temperature of the solution from 25,0°C to 5,0°C

Explanation:

To decrease the temperature of the solution there are necessaries:

4,184J/g°C×(5,0°C-25,0°C)×(100,0g+X) = -Y

8368J + 83,68J/gX = Y <em>(1)</em>

Where x are grams of NH₄NO₃ you need to add and Y is the energy that you need to decrease the heat.

Also, the energy Y will be:

Y = 25700J/mol×\frac{1mol}{80,043g}X

Y = 321J/g X <em>(2)</em>

Replacing (2) in (1)

8368J + 83,68J/g X = 321J/g X

8363J = 237,32J/gX

<em>X = 35,2g</em>

<em />

Thus, there are necessaries 35,2g of NH₄NO₃ per 100,0g of water to decrease the temperature of the solution from 25,0°C to 5,0°C

I hope it helps!
