Specific heat is the amount of heat absorb or released by a substance to change the temperature to one degree Celsius. To determine the specific heat, we use the expression for the heat absorbed by the system. Heat gained or absorbed in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is expressed as follows:
Heat = mC(T2-T1)
By substituting the given values, we can calculate for C which is the specific heat of the material.
2510 J = .158 kg ( 1000 g / 1 kg) (C) ( 61.0 - 32.0 °C)C = 0.5478 J / g °C

<u>Given:</u>

Mass of the unknown substance, m = 0.158 kg = 158 g

Heat absorbed Q = 2510.0 J

Initial temperature T1 = 32 C

Final temperature T2 = 61 C

<u>To determine:</u>

The specific heat of the substance

<u>Explanation:</u>

The heat absorbed to raise the temperature from T1 to T2 is-

Q = mcΔT

where c = specific heat

c = Q/mΔT = Q/m(T2-T1)

c = 2510 J/158 g * (61-32) C = 0.548 J/gC

Ans: Specific of the substance is 0.548 J/gC

If PbI2(s) is dissolved in 1.0MNaI(aq) , is the maximum possible concentration of Pb2+(aq) in the solution greater than, less th
fredd [130]

Answer:

\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}

Less than the concentration of Pb2+(aq) in the solution in part ( a )

Explanation:

From the question:

A)

We assume that s to be  the solubility of PbI₂.

The equation of the reaction is given as :

PbI₂(s) ⇌ Pb²⁺(aq) + 2I⁻(aq); Ksp = 7 × 10⁻⁹

 [Pb²⁺] =   s

Then [I⁻] = 2s

K_{sp} =\text{[Pb$^{2+}$][I$^{-}$]}^{2} = s\times (2s)^{2} =  4s^{3}\\s^{3} = \dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}\\\\s =\mathbf{ \sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}\\\\\text{The mathematical expressionthat can be used to determine the value of  }\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}

B)

The Concentration of Pb²⁺  in water is calculated as :

\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{K_{sp}}{4}}}

\mathbf{s =\sqrt [3]{\dfrac{7*10^{-9}}{4}}}

\mathbf{s} =\sqrt[3]{1.75*10^{-9}}

\mathbf{s} =\mathbf{1.21*10^{-3}  \ mol/L }

The Concentration of Pb²⁺  in 1.0 mol·L⁻¹ NaI

\mathbf{PbCl{_2}}  \leftrightharpoons    \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf{Pb^{2+}}   \ \ \ \  \ +   \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{2 I^-}

                             \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \ \   \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf0}   \ \ \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \   \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{1.0}

                            \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \    \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf{+x}   \ \ \ \  \    \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{+2x}

                            \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \    \ \ \ \ \  \mathbf{+x}   \ \ \ \  \    \ \  \ \ \ \ \ \mathbf{1.0+2x}

The equilibrium constant:

K_{sp} =[Pb^{2+}}][I^-]^2 \\ \\ K_{sp} = s*(1.0*2s)^2 =7*1.0^{-9} \\ \\ s = 7*10^{-9} \ \  m/L

It is now clear that maximum possible concentration of Pb²⁺ in the solution is less than that in the solution in part (A). This happens due to the  common ion effect. The added iodide ion forces the position of equilibrium to shift to the left, reducing the concentration of Pb²⁺.

A chemist is working on a reaction represented by this chemical equation:
erastova [34]

Answer is: A. 1.81 mol.

Balanced chemical reaction: FeCl₂ + 2KOH → Fe(OH)₂ + 2KCl.

n(FeCl₂) = 4.15 mol; amount of iron(II) chloride.

n(KOH) = 3.62 mol; amount of potassium hydroxide, limiting reactant.

From chemical reaction: n(KOH) : n(Fe(OH)₂) = 2 : 1.

n(Fe(OH)₂) = n(KOH) ÷ 2.

n(Fe(OH)₂) = 3.62 mol ÷ 2.

n(Fe(OH)₂) = 1.81 mol; amount of iron(II) hydroxide.

Answer:

volume in L = 0.25 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Cu(NO₃)₂ = 2.43 g

Volume of KI = ?

Solution:

Balanced chemical equation:

2Cu(NO₃)₂  + 4KI    →    2CuI + I₂ + 4KNO₃

Moles of Cu(NO₃)₂:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2.43 g/ 187.56 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.013 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Cu(NO₃)₂ with KI.

                        Cu(NO₃)₂       :              KI    

                              2              :               4

                            0.013          :            4 × 0.013=0.052 mol

Volume of KI:

<em>Molarity = moles of solute / volume in L</em>

volume in L = moles of solute /Molarity

volume in L =  0.052 mol / 0.209 mol/L

volume in L = 0.25 L

A gas occupies 72.1 at stp. At what temperature would the gas occupy 85.9 L at a pressure of 93.6 kPa?
Alika [10]

Answer:

328.1 K.

Explanation:

  • To calculate the no. of moles of a gas, we can use the general law of ideal gas: <em>PV = nRT</em>.

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in.

  • If n is constant, and have two different values of (P, V and T):

<em>P₁V₁T₂ = P₂V₂T₁</em>

<em></em>

P₁ = 1.0 atm (standard P), V₁ = 72.1 L, T₁ = 25°C + 273 = 298 K (standard T).

P₂ = 93.6 kPa = 0.924 atm, V₂ = 85.9 L, T₂ = ??? K.

<em>T₂ = P₂V₂T₁/P₁V₁ = </em>(0.924 atm)(85.9 L)(298 K)/(1.0 atm)(72.1 L) <em>= 328.1 K.</em>

<em></em>
