Answer:

0.213 J/g°C

Explanation:

To calculate specific heat of the metal, the formula is used:

Q = m × c × ∆T

Where Q = amount of heat

m = mass

c = specific heat

∆T = change in temperature

According to this question, Q = 37.7 J, m= 12.5 g, initial temperature= 19.5 °C, final temperature = 33.6°C, c=?

Q = m × c × ∆T

37.7 = 12.5 × c × (33.6-19.5)

37.7 = 12.5c × 14.1

37.7 = 176.25c

c = 37.7/176.25

c = 0.2139

Hence, the specific heat of the metal is 0.213 J/g°C

20 PTS!!! What is the volume of a gas at 90.0°C, if it occupies 1.41 L at 170°C?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

1.72 L

Explanation:

Initial Temperature of the gas T =90°+273= 363 K

Initial Volume of the gas V1= 1.41 L

Final temperature of the gas T2= 170°c +273= 443 K

Final volume of the gas V2= ????

Using Charles law;

V1/T1 = V2/T2

V1T2= V2T1

V2= V1T2/T1

V2= 1.41×443/363

V2= 1.72 L

Aluminum metal and bromine liquid (red) react violently to make aluminum bromide (white powder). One way to represent this equil
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Part A

K = (K₂)²

K = (K₃)⁻²

Part B

K = √(Ka/Kb)

Explanation:

Part A

The parent reaction is

2Al(s) + 3Br₂(l) ⇌ 2AlBr₃(s)

The equilibrium constant is given as

K = [AlBr₃]²/[Al]²[Br₂]³

2) Al(s) + (3/2) Br₂(l) ⇌ AlBr₃(s)

K₂ = [AlBr₃]/[Al][Br₂]¹•⁵

It is evident that

K = (K₂)²

3) AlBr₃(s) ⇌ Al(s) + 3/2 Br₂(l)

K₃ = [Al][Br₂]¹•⁵/[AlBr₃]

K = (K₃)⁻²

Part B

Parent reaction

S(s) + O₂(g) ⇌ SO₂(g)

K = [SO₂]/[S][O₂]

a) 2S(s) + 3O₂(g) ⇌ 2SO₃(g)

Ka = [SO₃]²/[S]²[O₂]³

[SO₃]² = Ka × [S]²[O₂]³

b) 2SO₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇌ 2 SO₃(g)

Kb = [SO₃]²/[SO₂]²[O₂]

[SO₃]² = Kb × [SO₂]²[O₂]

[SO₃]² = [SO₃]²

Hence,

Ka × [S]²[O₂]³ = Kb × [SO₂]²[O₂]

(Ka/Kb) = [SO₂]²[O₂]/[S]²[O₂]³

(Ka/Kb) = [SO₂]²/[S]²[O₂]²

(Ka/Kb) = {[SO₂]/[S][O₂]}²

Recall

K = [SO₂]/[S][O₂]

Hence,

(Ka/Kb) = K²

K = √(Ka/Kb)

Hope this Helps!!!

A solution with a hydrogen ion concentration of 3.25 × 10-2 m is ________ and has a hydroxide concentration of _______
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

To know the acidity of a solution, we calculate the pH value. The formula for pH is given as:

<span>pH = - log [H+]            where H+ must be in Molar</span>

We are given that H+ = 3.25 × 10-2 M

Therefore the pH is:

pH = - log [3.25 × 10-2] 

pH = 1.488

Since pH is way below 7, therefore the solution is acidic.

 

To find for the OH- concentration, we must remember that the product of H+ and OH- is equivalent to 10^-14. Therefore,

[H+]*[OH-] = 10^-14 <span>
</span>[OH-] = 10^-14 / [H+]

[OH-] = 10^-14 / 3.25 × 10-2

[OH-] = 3.08 × 10-13 M

 

Answers:

Acidic

[OH-] = 3.08 <span>× 10-13 M</span>

Determine the concentration of an aqueous solution that has an osmotic pressure of 3.9 atm at 37°C if the solute is sodium chlor
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Concentration for the solution is 0.153 mol/L

Explanation:

Formula for the osmotic pressure is  π = M . R . T . i

where M is molarity (concentration), R the universal constant for gases and T is Absolute T° (T°C + 273)

π = Osmotic pressure.

Let's replace the data given:

3.9 atm =  M . 0.082L.atm/mol.K . 310K

3.9 atm / 0.082 mol.K/L.atm . 310K = 0.153 mol/L (M)

i = Van't Hoff factor (ions from the solute dissolved in solution)

In this case, we assumed no ion pairing, so i = 1
