Calculate the specific heat in J/(g·ºC) of an unknown substance if a 2.50-g sample releases 12.0 cal as its temperature changes from 25.0ºC to 20.0ºC. ________J/(g·°C)

Answers

Answer 1

The specific heat of an unknown substance is 0.96 J/(g·ºC).

What is the specific heat capacity?

The specific heat capacity of a substance can be described as the quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature in one unit of substance by 1 degree Celcius.

Whenever the heat is lost or absorbed there is a change in the temperature of the substance:

Q = mCΔT

Given, the amount of energy released, Q = 12 cal

The initial temperature of the substance = 25.0ºC

The final temperature of the substance = 20.0ºC

The change in the temperature of a substance, ΔT = 25 -20 = 5°C

The mass of the substance, m = 2.50 g

We have to find the specific heat capacity of an unknown substance.

12 cal = 2.50 g × C × 5°C

C = 0.96 J/(g·ºC)

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of an unknown substance is equal to 0.96 J/(g·ºC).

Answer 2

The amount of heat needed to raise a substance's temperature by one degree Celsius per gram is known as specific heat. The specific heat in J/(gºC) of an unknown substance is 0.96 J/gºC.

The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of the entire substance by one degree is the heat capacity of a substance. Specific heat capacity is what is used when the substance's mass is equal to one.

The hydrogen bonds in water, which account for its high specific heat.

The expression used to calculate the specific heat capacity is:

Q = mcΔT

Here Q = 12 Cal

m = 2.50 g

T₁ = 25.0ºC

T₂ = 20.0ºC

ΔT = 5°C

12 cal = 2.50 g × c × 5°C

c = 0.96 J/gºC

4. Calculate the total amount of heat a beaker of water would absorb sitting in the sun. The water has a mass of 500g, a specific heat of 4.184 (J/gx°C), and had a change in temperature of 22 °C.

Answers

Answer:

46024 j    or    46.024 kj

Explanation:

500 gm * 4.184 j/(gm-C)  * 22 C = 46024 j

The heat energy absorbed by water of mass 500 g and specific heat capacity of 4.184 J/°Cg with a temperature rise to 22 degree celsius is 46024 J.

What is specific heat capacity?

Specific heat capacity of a substance is the heat energy required to raise the temperature of that substance by one degree celsius per mole. It is an intensive property and does not dependent on the total amount if the substance.

Specific heat capacity of a substance is a constant and water have this value of 4.184 J/°Cg. The heat energy q absorbed or evolved from a system is related to the specific heat capacity C , mass M and temperature change ΔT occured on the system as in equation written below:

q = mC  ΔT .

The heat energy of water of mass 500 g absorbed for a temperature change of 22 °C can be calculated as follows:

q = 500 g × 22 °C × 4.184 J/°Cg

  =  46024 J.

Hence, the total heat of absorption of water for the given mass and temperature change is 46024 J.

Bonding with intermolecular forces:

1.) is CH3F a hydrogen bonding? yes or no?

2.) is CH3F dipole-dipole interactions? Yes or no?

3.) is CH3F a london dispersion forces? Yes or no?

Answers

Explanation:

1.) is CH3F a hydrogen bonding? yes or no? = No, CH3F is not a hydrogen bonding beacuse the molecule lacks hydrogen atoms bonded to nitrogen, oxygen, or fluorine; ruling out hydrogen bonding.

2.) is CH3F dipole-dipole interactions? Yes or no? = Yes, CH3F is a dipole-dipole interactions beacuse in it's molecule, there are no metal atoms to form ionic bonds3.) is CH3F a london dispersion forces? Yes or no?= Yes, CH3F is a london dispersion forces because in it's molecule, there are no metal atoms to form ionic bonds .

The intermolecular forces present in the bonding of CH₃F are dipole-dipole interactions and London dispersion forces.

1.) No, CH₃F does not exhibit hydrogen bonding. Hydrogen bonding occurs when a hydrogen atom is bonded to a highly electronegative atom such as fluorine, oxygen, or nitrogen. In CH₃F, the hydrogen atom is bonded to carbon, which is not highly electronegative.

2.) Yes, CH₃F exhibits dipole-dipole interactions. Dipole-dipole interactions occur between molecules that have permanent dipoles due to the electronegativity difference between the atoms. In CH₃F, the fluorine atom is more electronegative than the carbon and hydrogen atoms, resulting in a polar molecule with a permanent dipole moment.

3.) Yes, CH₃F exhibits London dispersion forces. London's dispersion forces, also known as Van der Waals forces, are present in all molecules and arise from temporary fluctuations in electron distribution. Although CH₃F has dipole-dipole interactions, it also experiences London dispersion forces due to the temporary shifts in electron density.

Hence, the bonding in CH₃F was explained above.

The solubility of magnesium fluoride, , in water is g/L. What is the solubility (in grams per liter) of magnesium fluoride in 0.29 M of sodium fluoride,

Answers

Answer:

1.457*10^-8 grams

Explanation:

First we want to find the molar concentration of MgF2. We can do this by dividing 0.016 (the solubility in grams of MgCl2 in a litre of water) by its molar mass (approx. 62.3 grams). Thus, the molar solubility of MgF2 is 2.57*10^-4 M.

Next, we must calculate the Ksp of MgF2. The equilibrium expression is:

MgF2⇄Mg+2F

Thus   [tex]Ksp=[Mg^+][F^-]^2[/tex]

This means that, in equilibrium, there are 2.57*10^-4 M of [tex]M^+[/tex] and 5.136*10^-4 M of [tex]F^-[/tex]

Plugging in the above information, our Ksp for MgF2 is approximately 6.78*10^-11

Next we will need to use the RICE table. Since there is already 0.29M of NaF dissolved, there is initially 0.29M of [tex]F^-[/tex].

R: MgF2 ⇄ [tex]Mg^{+}[/tex]+2[tex]F^-[/tex]

I:    N/A        0     0.29M

C:   N/A         +x      +x

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

E:   N/A         x     0.29+x  

To make calculations easier, we will assume that 0.29+x≈0.29

This means that Ksp=0.29x=6.78*10^-11

Therefore, x≈2.338*10^-10M

Multiply that by 62.3 and we get around 1.457*10^-8 grams.

CH4 + O2 - CO2 + 2H2O

Answers

Answer:

9.03*10^23 molecules CH4

Explanation:

In the equation CH4 + O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O, the molar ratio of CH4 to CO2 is 1:1. It takes 1 mole of CH4 burned to form 1 mole of CO2. If we convert molecules to moles, we do 9.03 x 10^23 divided by 6.02 x 10^23 = 1.5 moles of CO2. Since we know the ratio is 1:1, that meant it would take 1.5 moles of CH4 burned to make that much CO2. So we convert our 1.5 moles of CH4 into molecules by multiplying 1.5 * 6.02 x 10^23 which equals 9.03*10^23 molecules CH4.
