A goldsmith melts 12.4 grams of gold to make a ring. The temperature of the gold rises from 26°C to 1064°C, and then the gold me

lts completely. If gold’s specific heat is 0.1291 joules/gram degree Celsius and its heat of fusion is 63.5 joules/gram, how much energy is gained by the gold?
The gold gains a total of ____ joules of energy.

I was given this by somebody. No idea what to do with this.
QJ=(12.4g*(1064-26)°C*0.1291J/g/°C)+(12.4g*63.5J)

Answer:

The gold gains a total of 2.468 kilo-joules of energy.

Explanation:

Total heat or energy gained by the gold is equal to heat applied and heat required to melt the gold completely.

Total energy = Q+ Q'

Heat of fusion of gold =\Delta H_{fus} =63.5 joules/gram

Mass of gold melted ,m= 12.5 g

Specific heat of gold ,c= 0.1291 joules/gram °C

Change in temperature = ΔT = 1064°C - 26°C = 1038 °C

Heat of applied to the gold = Q

Q=mc\Delta T

Q'=\Delta H_{fus}\times m

Total energy = Q+ Q'

=12.5 g\times 0.1291 joules/gram ^oC\times 1038 ^oC+63.5 joules/gram\times 12.5 g

= 2,468.82 Joule= 2.468 kilo-Joule

The gold gains a total of 2.468 kilo-joules of energy.

Propose a plausible mechanism for the reaction f2 + 2clo2 → 2fclo2 given that the rate law for the reaction is rate = k[f2][clo2
shepuryov [24]

<u>The given reaction is:</u>

F2 + ClO2 → 2FClO2

Rate = k[F2][ClO2]

<u>Explanation:</u>

The possible mechanism for this reaction can be broken down into two steps with the slow step being the rate determining step

Step 1:       F2 + ClO2 → FClO2 + F ----------- Slow

Step 2:      F + ClO2 → FClO2           ----------- Fast

-----------------------------------------------------------

Overall:  F2 + 2ClO2 → 2FClO2

Rate = k[F2][ClO2]

Determine the number of moles in 4.21 x 10^23 molecules of CaCl2
Paha777 [63]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

0.699 mole CaCl₂

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

To get the number of moles we use the Avogadro's number.

Avogadro's number is 6.022 x 10^23.

But, 1 mole of a compound contains  6.022 x 10^23 molecules

In this case;

we are given 4.21 × 10^23 molecules of CaCl₂

Therefore, to get the number of moles

Moles = Number of molecules ÷ Avogadro's constant

          = 4.21 × 10^23 molecules ÷  6.022 x 10^23 molecules/mole

          = 0.699 mole CaCl₂

Hence, the number of moles is 0.699 mole of CaCl₂

Which of the reactions are spontaneous (favorable)? DHAP − ⇀ ↽ − glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate Δ G = 3.8 kJ / mol DHAP↽−−⇀glycerald
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

In spontaneous reaction , there is decrease in Gibb's free energy .( Δ G is negative ). Out of given reaction , following reactions have negative Δ G so they are spontaneous.

C ₂ H ₄ + H ₂ Rh ( I ) −−−→ C ₂ H ₆ ,  Δ G = − 150.97 kJ / mol

C ₆ H₁₃O₉ P + ATP ⟶ C ₆ H₁₄ O₁₂ P₂ + ADP ,  Δ G = − 14.2 kJ / mol

Consider the equation: 2NO2(g) N2O4(g). Using ONLY the information given by the equation which of the following changes would in
Reika [66]
I believe the correct answer is the first option. To increase the molar concentration of the product N2O4, you should increase the pressure of the system. You cannot determine the effect of changing the temperature since we cannot tell whether it is an endothermic or an exothermic reaction. Also, decreasing the number of NO2 would not increase the product rather it would shift the equilibrium to the left forming more reactants. The only parameter we can change would be the pressure. And, since NO2 takes up more space than the product increasing the pressure would allow the reactant to collide more forming the product.
