- Will a closed container of water at 70 C or an open container of water at the same temperature cool faster on a cold winter day? Explain why.arrow_forwardA quantity of ice at 0C is added to 64.3 g of water in a glass at 55C. After the ice melted, the temperature of the water in the glass was 15C. How much ice was added? The heat of fusion of water is 6.01 kJ/mol and the specific heat is 4.18 J/(g C).arrow_forwardWhat is U when 1.00 mol of liquid water vaporizes at 100C? The heat of vaporization, Hvap, of water at 100C is 40.66 kJ/mol.arrow_forward
- The amount of heat required to melt 2 lbs of ice is twice the amount of heat required to melt 1 lb of ice. Is this observation a macroscopic or microscopic description of chemical behavior? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardCarbon disulfide, CS2 is a volatile, flammable liquid. It has a vapor pressure of 400.0 mmHg at 28.0C and 760.0 mmHg at 46.5C. What is the heat of vaporization of this substance?arrow_forwardExplain why 15 g of steam at 100C melts more ice than 15 g of liquid water at 100C.arrow_forward
- Follow the step-wise process outlined in Problem 31 to calculate the amount of heat involved in condensing 100.00 g of benzene gas (C6H6) at 80.00C to liquid benzene at 25.00C. Use Tables 8.1 and 8.2 for the specific heat, boiling point, and heat of vaporization of benzene.arrow_forwardA 0.250-g chunk of sodium metal is cautiously dropped into a mixture of 50.0 g water and 50.0 g ice, both at 0C. The reaction is 2Na(s)+2H2O(l)2NaOH(aq)+H2(g)H=368kJ Assuming no heat loss to the surroundings, will the ice melt? Assuming the final mixture has a specific heat capacity of 4.18 J/gc, calculate the final temperature. The enthalpy of fusion for ice is 6.02 kJ/mol.arrow_forwardConsider a substance X with a Hvap = 20.3 kJ/mol and Hfus = 9.0 kJ/mol. The melting point, freezing point, and heat capacities of both the solid and liquid X are identical to those of water. a If you place one beaker containing 50 g of X at 10C and another beaker with 50 g of H2O at 10C on a hot plate and start heating them, which material will reach the boiling point first? b Which of the materials from part a, X or H2O, would completely boil away first? c On a piece of graph paper, draw the heating curve for H2O and X. How do the heating curves reflect your answers from parts a and b?arrow_forward
