A sample of an unknown substance has a mass of 0.158 kg. If 2,510.0 J of heat is required to heat the substance from 32.0°C to 6

1.0°C, what is the specific heat of the substance?

Specific heat capacity is the required amount of heat per unit of mass in order to raise teh temperature by one degree Celsius. It can be calculated from this equation: H = mCΔT where the H is heat required, m is mass of the substance, ΔT is the change in temperature, and C is the specific heat capacity.

H = m<span>CΔT
2501.0 = 0.158 (C) (61.0 - 32.0)

C = 545.8 J/kg</span>·°C

We would like to make a golden standard kilogram in the shape of circular cylinder. The density of gold is 19.32 g/cm3. a) Find
iragen [17]

Explanation:

a)  Using the provided information about the density  of gold, the sample size, thickness, and the following  equations and comersion factors, find the area of   the gold leaf:

V=l \cdot w \cdot h=A \cdot h\\m=\rho \cdot V

Gold _{\rho}=19.32 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}

1 \mu=10^{-6} \mathrm{m}

First, find the volume of the sample and then find the area of the sample.

V=\frac{m}{\rho}=\frac{27.6 \mathrm{g}}{19.32 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{cm}^{3}} \cdot\left(\frac{0.01 \mathrm{m}}{1 \mathrm{cm}}\right)^{3} =\frac{1.429 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}^{3}}

V=A \cdot h \rightarrow A=\frac{V}{h}=\frac{1.429 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}^{3}}{10^{-6} \mathrm{m}} \approx 1.429 \mathrm{m}^{2}

b.  Using the provided information from part a ), the radius of the cylinder, and the following equation for the volume of a cylinder, find the length of the fiber :

V=\pi r^{2} h \rightarrow h=\frac{V}{\pi r^{2}}

h=\frac{1.429 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}^{3}}{\pi \cdot\left(2.5 \times 10^{-6} \mathrm{m}\right)^{2}} \approx 72778 \mathrm{m}

Assuming equal concentrations of conjugate base and acid, which one of the following mixtures is suitable for making a buffer so
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

NH₃/NH₄Cl

Explanation:

We can calculate the pH of a buffer using the Henderson-Hasselbalch's equation.

pH=pKa+log\frac{[base]}{[acid]}

If the concentration of the acid is equal to that of the base, the pH will be equal to the pKa of the buffer. The optimum range of work of pH is pKa ± 1.

Let's consider the following buffers and their pKa.

  • CH₃COONa/CH3COOH (pKa = 4.74)
  • NH₃/NH₄Cl (pKa = 9.25)
  • NaOCl/HOCl (pKa = 7.49)
  • NaNO₂/HNO₂ (pKa = 3.35)
  • NaCl/HCl Not a buffer

The optimum buffer is NH₃/NH₄Cl.

Part a how many grams of xef6 are required to react with 0.579 l of hydrogen gas at 6.46 atm and 45°c in the reaction shown belo
Nina [5.8K]
First, let us find the corresponding amount of moles H₂ assuming ideal gas behavior.

PV = nRT
Solving for n,
n = PV/RT
n = (6.46 atm)(0.579 L)/(0.0821 L-atm/mol-K)(45 + 273 K)
n = 0.143 mol H₂

The stoichiometric calculations is as follows (MW for XeF₆ = 245.28 g/mol)
Mass XeF₆ = (0.143 mol H₂)(1 mol XeF₆/3 mol H₂)(245.28 g/mol) = <em>11.69 g</em>
