To begin the experiment, 1.11g of methane CH4 is burned in a bomb calorimeter containing 1000 grams of water. The initial temper

ature of water is 24.85oC. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g oC. The heat capacity of the calorimeter is 695 J/ oC . After the reaction the final temperature of the water is 35.65oC.
Using the formula waterq =m•c•ΔT ,calculate the heat absorbed by the water

In order to calculate the enthalpy of the reaction, we first calculate the heat released using the given formula.
Q = mc<span>ΔT
Q = 1000 x 4.184 x (35.65 - 24.85)
Q = 45187.2 J = 45.2 kJ

Now, we determine the moles of methane that were burned.
Moles = mass / Mr
Moles = 1.11 / (12 + 4)
Moles = 0.07

The enthalpy of a reaction is the energy released per mole, so the enthalpy in this case is:
</span>ΔH = 45.2 / 0.07
ΔH = 645.7 kJ/mol

A large cylindrical tank contains 0.750 m3 of nitrogen gas at 27°C and 7.50 * 103 Pa (absolute pressure). The tank has a tight‐f
Nuetrik [128]

Answer: The answer is 68142.4 Pa

Explanation:

Given that the initial properties of the cylindrical tank are :

Volume V1= 0.750m3

Temperature T1= 27C

Pressure P1 =7.5*10^3 Pa= 7500Pa

Final properties of the tank after decrease in volume and increase in temperature :

Volume V2 =0.480m3

Temperature T2 = 157C

Pressure P2 =?

Applying the gas law equation (Charles and Boyle's laws combined)

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

(7500 * 0.750)/27 =( P2 * 0.480)/157

P2 =(7500 * 0.750* 157) / (0.480 *27)

P2 = 883125/12.96

P2 = 68142.4Pa

Therefore the pressure of the cylindrical tank after decrease in volume and increase in temperature is 68142.4Pa

How many moles of KCl will be<br> produced from 15.0 g of KClO3?
slega [8]

Answer:

0.12 mol KCl

Explanation:

2 KClO3 (s)   2 KCl (s) + 3 O2 (g)

15 g                x mol

x g KCl = 15 g KClO3 x[ (1 mol KClO3)/ (122.5 g KClO3) ] x [(2 mol KCl)/ (2 mol KClO3)]

x g KCl = 0.12 mol KCl

Anna [14]
Bonds of two atoms of equal electronegativity are nonpolar covalent bonds.

Your second sentence is identical to the first sentence; I'll bet the second sentence is "Bonds between two atoms that are unequally electronegative are polar covalent bonds."

"The compound K2O2 also exists. A chemist can determine the mass of K in a sample of known mass that consists of either pure K2O
o-na [289]

Answer:

Yes, the chemist can determine which compound is in the sample.

Explanation:

In 1 mole of K₂O, the mass of K is 2 × 39.1 g = 78.2 g and the mass of K₂O is 94.2 g. The mass ratio of K to K₂O is 78.2 g / 94.2 g = 0.830.

In 1 mole of K₂O₂, the mass of K is 2 × 39.1 g = 78.2 g and the mass of K₂O₂ is 110.2 g. The mass ratio of K to K₂O₂ is 78.2 g / 110.2 g = 0.710.

If the chemist knows the mass of K and the mass of the sample, he or she must calculate the mass ratio of K to the sample.

  • If the ratio is 0.830, the compound is pure K₂O.
  • If the ratio is 0.710, the compound is pure K₂O₂.
  • If the ratio is not 0.830 or 0.710, the sample is a mixture.
