Summary Introduction

To explain:

Artificial ice cubes made of granite can be cooled in the freezer and used in drinks. Would these cool drinks more or less effective than an equal weight of ice cubes from the same freezer.

Introduction:

Absorption and retention of heat by any substance depends on the chemical structure of that substance, mainly on the type of chemical bonds

Hydrogen bonds are weak bonds that are more temperature to temperature. They absorb heat fast as well as release heat faster.

A group of students designed an experiment to determine the impact of sucrose concentration on the weight of potato cubes. The pieces of potato were initially the same weight, shape, and size. Each potato piece was submerged into a beaker containing one of the sucrose concentrations for 30 minutes. The final weight of the potato was measured and recorded in the table. Which TWO conclusions can be correctly drawn from this data? A In the 0.4 mol/dm3 solution, the sucrose molecules moved across the semi-permeable membrane to go from a lower solute concentration (the potato) to a higher solute concentration (the sucrose solution), leading to a decrease in the weight of the potato. B In the 1 mol/dm3 solution, the water molecules moved across a semi-permeable membrane to go from a lower solute concentration (the potato) to a higher solute concentration(the sucrose solution), leading to a decrease in weight of the potato. C In the 0.8 mol/dm3 solution, the sucrose molecules moved…
A 1.143 g sample contains only vitamin C (C,H, 0,) and sucralose (C,H,Cl, O,). When the sample is dissolved in water to a total volume of 31.7 mL, the osmotic pressure of the solution is 3.91 atm at 285 K. What is the mass percent of vitamin C and sucralose in the sample? vitamin C: sucralose: %
Combustion of a fuel sample in a bomb calorimeter increases the temperature of the entire system by 5.10 °C if the calorimeter contains 1700 g of water, but only by 4.00 °C if the calorimeter contains 2200 g of water. What is the heat capacity of the dry bomb calorimeter assembly? Assume that the specific heat capacity of water is 4.18 J g–1 °C–1.
