A 35 g sample of steam at 116⁰C are bubbled into 300 g water at 10⁰C. Find the final temperature of the system, assuming that the steam condenses into liquid water.
Calorimetry is when two substances at different temperatures are mixed and allowed to come to equilibrium. If I used 38 grams of ice at -6oC and mixed it with 240grams of water at 74oC. Draw the corresponding temperature time graph for the problem
You are designing a process with acetonitrile as the solvent. The process conditions are T = 81 °C and p = 560 mmHg. You want to ensure that the acetonitrile will not boil under these process conditions. Using the Antoine equation, determine if the acetonitrile will boil.
