The calculation for the amount of water present in the given amount of hydrate is shown below,
amount water = (100 g hydrate) x (0.347 g H2O / 0.946 g hydrate)
= 36.68 g
Thus, the amount of water present in the hydrate is approximately 36.68 g.
The easy part about this question is that it already gives you the equation to use. If you're trying to find the weight in g/cm^3, all you have to do is divide the weight in grams (g) by the volume in cubic centimeters (cm^3).
The problem already gives you the volume, so you just need to convert kilograms (kg) into grams (g).
Hint: "kilogram" means 1000 grams. There are 1,000 grams in each kilogram.
So find the weight of the object in grams, then divide that number by the volume in cm^3.
Answer:
From the following enthalpy of reaction data and data in Appendix C, calculate ΔH∘f for CaC2(s): CaC2(s)+2H2O(l)→Ca(OH)2(s)+C2H2(g)ΔH∘=−127.2kJ
ΔHf°(C2H2) = 227.4 kJ/mol
ΔHf°(H2O) = -285.8 kJ/mol and
ΔHf°(Ca(OH)2) = -985.2 kJ/mol
(Ans)
ΔHf° of CaC2 = -59.0 kJ/mol
Explanation:
CaC2(s) + 2 H2O(l) → Ca(OH)2(s) + C2H2 (g) = −127.2kJ
ΔHrxn = −127.2kJ
ΔHrxn = ΔHf°(C2H2) + ΔHf°(Ca(OH)2) - ΔHf°(CaC2)- 2ΔHf°(H2O);
ΔHf°(CaC2) = ΔHf°(C2H2) + ΔHf°(Ca(OH)2) - 2ΔHf°(H2O) – ΔHrxn
Where
ΔHf°(C2H2) = 227.4 kJ/mol
ΔHf°(H2O) = -285.8 kJ/mol and
ΔHf°(Ca(OH)2) = -985.2 kJ/mol
ΔHf°(CaC2) =227.4 - 985.2 + 2x285.8 + 127.2 = -59.0 kJ/mol
ΔHf°(CaC2) = -59.0 kJ/mol
<span>Actually, the heat of reaction hrxn s calculated by taking
the sum of the heats of formation of the products minus the sum of the heats of
formation of the reactants. However, at heat of formations of pure elements at
atmospheric conditions is zero, therefore the hf of N2 is not important since
it is zero anyway.</span>
First we need to find the number of moles of both K and O reacted
K - 0.779 g / 39 g/mol
= 0.02 mol
the mass of O₂ reacted = 1.417 g - 0.779 g = 0.638 g
O₂ moles = 0.638 g / 32 g/mol
= 0.02 mol
the number of both K and O₂ moles reacted are equal
therefore stoichiometry of K to O₂ reacted are 1:1
then the formula of potassium superoxide is KO₂
