When 1.365 g of anthracene, C14H10, is combusted in a bomb calorimeter that has a water jacket containing 500.0 g of water, the

temperature of the water increases by 25.89°C. Assuming that the specific heat of water is 4.18 J/(g ∙°C), and that the heat absorption by the calorimeter is negligible, estimate the enthalpy of combustion per mole of anthracene.

<h3>The enthalpy of combustion per mole of anthracene : 7064 kj/mol(- sign=exothermic)</h3><h3>Further explanation  </h3>

The law of conservation of energy can be applied to heat changes, i.e. the heat received/absorbed is the same as the heat released  

Q in = Q out  

Heat can be calculated using the formula:  

Q = mc∆T  

Heat released by anthracene= Heat absorbed by water

Heat absorbed by water =

\tt Q=500\times 4.18\times 25.89=54110.1~J

mol of  anthracene (MW=178,23 g/mol)

\tt \dfrac{1.365}{178.23}=0.00766

The enthalpy of combustion per mole of anthracene :

\tt \Delta H=-\dfrac{Q}{n}=\dfrac{54110.1}{0.00766}=-7063981.7~J/mol\approx -7064~kJ/mol

Alexandra requires a total energy of 1350 kcal for the climb
by eating proteins, fats and carbohydrates the amount of calories per gram contributed varies.
Proteins and carbohydrates - 4 calories per gram 
fats - 9 calories and gram
This means that by eating the same mass of fats and proteins/ carbohydrats the calories gained from fats is higher.
each bar contains;
<span>50 g of carbohydrates - 4 calories/g x 50 g = 200 calories
10 g of fat - 9 calories/g x 10 g = 90 calories 
40 g of protein - 4 calories/g x 40 g = 160 calories 
total amount of calories from 1 bar = 200 + 90 + 160 = 450 calories 
energy required = 1 350 000 calories 
bars required = 1 350 000/450 = 3000

The closeness of particles of gas and their low speeds allow intermolecular forces to become important at certain pressures and
Ipatiy [6.2K]
The statement above is a limitation of the kinetic molecular theory. Kinetic molecular theory is a theory which is based on the assumption that gases are made up of large number of particles which behave like spherical objects in a state of constant, random motion in space. These particles move in a straight path until they collide with another particle or the wall of the container.

If 1.50 μg of co and 6.80 μg of h2 were added to a reaction vessel, and the reaction went to completion, how many gas particles
Vlada [557]
To determine the number of gas particles in the vessel we add all of the components of the gas. For this, we need to convert the mass to moles by the molar mass. Then, from moles to molecules by the avogadro's number.

1.50x10^-6 ( 1 / 28.01) (6.022x10^23) = 3.22x10^16 molecules CO


6.80x10^-6 ( 1 / 2.02) (6.022x10^23) = 2.03x10 18 molecules H2

Totol gas particles = 2.05x10^18 molecules

Semenov [28]

Answer:

The final volume is 39.5 L = 0.0395 m³

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Initial temperature = 200 °C = 473 K

Volume = 0.0250 m³ = 25 L

Pressure = 1.50 *10^6 Pa

The pressure reduce to 0.950 *10^6 Pa

The temperature stays constant at 200 °C

Step 2: Calculate the volume

P1*V1 = P2*V2

⇒with P1 = the initial pressure = 1.50 * 10^6 Pa

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 25 L

⇒with P2 = the final pressure = 0.950 * 10^6 Pa

⇒with V2 = the final volume = TO BE DETERMINED

1.50 *10^6 Pa * 25 L = 0.950 *10^6 Pa * V2

V2 = (1.50*10^6 Pa * 25 L) / 0.950 *10^6 Pa)

V2 = 39.5 L = 0.0395 m³

The final volume is 39.5 L = 0.0395 m³
