A chemist carefully measures the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a 533.0 mg sample of CH,N from 53.8 °C to 68.3 °C. The experiment shows that 16.5 J of heat are needed. What can the chemist report for the molar heat capacity of CH,N? Round your answer to 3 significant digits. -1 - 1 J•mol • K x10
When a solid dissolves in water, heat may be evolved or absorbed. The heat of dissolution (dissolving) can be determined using a coffee cup calorimeter. In the laboratory a general chemistry student finds that when 5.26 g of CsClO4(s) are dissolved in 103.30 g of water, the temperature of the solution drops from 22.98 to 19.81 °C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter (sometimes referred to as the calorimeter constant) was determined in a separate experiment to be 1.79 J/°C. Based on the student's observation, calculate the enthalpy of dissolution of CsClO4(s) in kJ/mol. Assume the specific heat of the solution is equal to the specific heat of water.
A 6.78 g sample of methanol was combusted in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter increased by 12.7 °C. If the molar mass of methanol is 32.04 g/mol, and the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 5,104 J/°C, what is the molar AE for this reaction, in kJ/mol? Do not report units in your answer. Report your answer to one decimal place and include the correct sign.
A 21.7 g piece of iron and a 28.6 g piece of gold at 100.0°C were dropped into 770.0 mL of water at 25.0°C. The molar heat capacities of iron and gold are 25.19 J/(mol·°C) and 25.41 J/(mol·°C), respectively. What is the final temperature of the water and pieces of metal?
When 1.836 grams of sucrose (Molar mass 342.3 g/mol) is burned in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature of the calorimeter increases from 22.41°C to 26.63°C. If the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 4.900 kJ/°C, what is the heat of combustion of sucrose?
10 A student heats 84.17 mL of water to 95.27°C using a hot plate. The heated water is added to a calorimeter containing 73.92 mL of cold water. The water temperature in the calorimeter rises from 2.15°C to 37.48°C. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 J and the density of water is g. °C 1.00 mL Assuming that heat was transferred from the hot water to the cold water and the calorimeter, determine the heat capacity of the calorimeter.
