- Define the terms system and surroundings. What does it mean to say that a system and its surroundings are in thermal equilibrium?arrow_forwardWhen 50.0 g of 0.200 M NaCl(aq) at 24.1 C is added to 100.0 g of 0.100 M AgNO3(aq) at 24.1 C in a calorimeter, the temperature increases to 25.2 C as AgCl(s) forms. Assuming the specific heat of the solution and products is 4.20 J/g C, calculate the approximate amount of heat in joules produced.arrow_forwardPeanuts and peanut oil are organic materials and bum in air. How many burning peanuts does it take to provide the energy to boil a cup of water (250 mL of water)? To solve this problem, we assume each peanut, with an average mass of 0.73 g, is 49% peanut oil and 21% starch; the remainder is noncombustible We further assume peanut oil is palmitic acid, C16H32O2, with an enthalpy of formation of 848.4 kJ/mol. Starch is a long chain of C6H10O5 units, each unit having an enthalpy of formation of 960 kJ.arrow_forward
- On complete combustion at constant pressure, a 1.00-L sample of a gaseous mixture at 0C and 1.00 atm (STP) evolves 75.65 kJ of heat. If the gas is a mixture of ethane (C2H6) and propane (C3H8), what is the mole fraction of ethane in the mixture?arrow_forwardCalculate the specific heat of a material if 288J of energy were required to heat 50.5g of the material from 298K to 330K. What are the units?arrow_forwardUse the two appropriate values of R to determine a conversion between L. atm and J.arrow_forward
- The following are values of heat capacity for nitrogen gas; Temp K Cv J/mol. K 300 20.8 400 20.9 500 21.2 600 21.8 700 22.4 800 23.1 900 23.7 1000 24.3 1100 24.9 Using the general formula Cv = A BT C/T2, find values of A, B, and C that fit the given data.arrow_forwardIn the 1880s, Frederick Trouton noted that the enthalpy of vaporization of 1 mol pure liquid is approximately 88 times the boiling point, Tb, of the liquid on the Kelvin scale. This relationship is called Troutons rule and is represented by the thermochemical equation liquid gas H = 88 Tb, joules Combined with an empirical formula from chemical analysis, Troutons rule can be used to find the molecular formula of a compound, as illustrated here. A compound that contains only carbon and hydrogen is 85.6% C and 14.4% H. Its enthalpy of vaporization is 389 J/g, and it boils at a temperature of 322 K. (a) What is the empirical formula of this compound? (b) Use Troutons rule to calculate the approximate enthalpy or vaporization or one mole of the compound. Combine the enthalpy of vaporization per mole with that same quantity per gram to obtain an approximate molar mass of the compound. (c) Use the results of parts (a) and (b) to find the molecular formula of this compound. Remember that the molecular mass must be exactly a whole-number multiple of the empirical formula mass, so considerable rounding may be needed.arrow_forwardIf the heat capacity varies withtemperature, abetter form ofequation 2.9 isto solve q=TiTfnCT-t A 50.0-g sample of white phosphorus is heated from 298 K to 350K. If its molar heat capacity is CT- = 56.990.1202T J/mol.K, how much heat is needed?arrow_forward
- When one mol of KOH is neutralized by sulfuric acid, q=56 kJ. (This is called the heat of neutralization.) At 23.7C, 25.0 mL of 0.475 M H2SO4 is neutralized by 0.613 M KOH in a coffee-cup calorimeter. Assume that the specific heat of all solutions is 4.18J/gC, that the density of all solutions is 1.00 g/mL, and that volumes are additive. (a) How many mL of KOH is required to neutralize H2SO4? (b) What is the final temperature of the solution?arrow_forwardConsider 2.00 moles of an ideal gas that are taken from state A (PA = 2.00 atm, vA = 10.0 L) to state B (PB = 1.00 attn, VB = 30.0 L) by two different pathways: These pathways are summarized on the following graph of P versus V: Calculate the work (in units of J) associated with the two pathways. Is work a state function? Explain.arrow_forwardNitrogen gas is confined in a cylinder with a movable piston under a constant pressure of 9.95 104 Pa. When 695 J of energy in the form of heat is transferred from the gas to the surroundings, its volume decreases by 1.88 L. What is the change in internal energy of the gas?arrow_forward
