Question
Calculate the heat energy released when 16.7 g of liquid mercury at 25.00 °C is converted to solid mercury at its melting point. Constants for mercury at 1 atm kJ heat capacity of Hg(1) 28.0 J/(mol·K) Ip = melting point 234.32 K enthalpy of fusion 2.29 kJ/mol
Transcribed Image Text:Calculate the heat energy released when 16.7 g of liquid mercury at 25.00 °C is converted to solid mercury at its melting point. Constants for mercury at 1 atm kJ heat capacity of Hg(1) 28.0 J/(mol·K) Ip = melting point 234.32 K enthalpy of fusion 2.29 kJ/mol
Expert Solution
Step 1

Temperature = 25°C or (25 + 273.15 )K

= 298.15K

Mass of mercury = 16.7 g

Melting point of Mercury = 234.32K

Specific heat capacity of mercury,c = 28.0 J/mol.K

Enthalpy of fusion for Mercury = 2.29kJ/mol

Molar mass of mercury = 200.59g/mol
