A chemist carefully measures the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of a 894.0g sample of a pure substance from to −5.8°C to 17.5°C. The experiment shows that 4.90kJ of heat are needed. What can the chemist report for the specific heat capacity of the substance?

Answers

Answer:

C = 0.2349 J/ (g °C)

Explanation:

Mass, m = 894.0g

Initial Temperature = −5.8°C

Final Temperature =  17.5°C

Temperature change = 17.5°C - (−5.8°C) = 23.3

Heat, H = 4.90kJ = 4900 J

Specific heat capacit, C = ?

The relationship between these quantities is given by the equation;

H = mCΔT

C = H / mΔT

C = 4900 / (894)(23.3)

C = 0.2349 J/ (g °C)

Answer:

1. aa

2. They have similar DNA

Explanation:

1. According to the question 1, wrinkled seeds (A) are dominant over round seeds (a) in pea plants. This means that, based on the law of dominance proposed by Mendel, wrinkled seeds will be expressed over round seeds in a heterozygous state (Aa).

However, since the round seed phenotype is a recessive trait, it will only be expressed when the alleles for round seeds (a) are the same in the gene i.e. aa genotype.

2. Based on the information in question 2, Ricky, who is working on a family tree for his school project, realizes that his close relatives all look similar in the pictures he collected. This is possible because of the SIMILARITY OF THEIR DNA (genetic material). Note that, relatives are connected by the genes that are inherited from one another, hence, they possess a similar DNA, which is the most valid reason for the resemblance.

The acid digestion test left 2.595 g of fiber from a composite specimen weighing 3.697 g. The composite specimen weighs 1.636 g in water. If the specific gravity of the fiber and matrix is 2.5 and 1.2, respectively, find the 1. Theoretical volume fraction of fiber and matrix 2. Theoretical density of composite

Answers

Answer:

0.4323 ; 1.5394

Explanation:

Given that :

Specific gravity of Fibre (Sf) = 2.5

Specific gravity of Matrix (Sm) = 1.2

Mass of Fibre, Mf = 2.595g

Weight of composite specimen in water , Wc = 1.636g

Composite weight, Ww = 3.697 g

Weight of Fibre and matrix

Volume fraction of Fibre and matrix :

[(Mf/Sf) ÷ (Mf/Sf + Wc/Sm)] * 100

[(2.595/2.5) ÷ (2.595/2.5 + 1.636/1.2)]

(1.038 ÷ 2.4013333)

= 0.43225986

= 0.4323

2.)

Theoretical density of composite :

Weight of composite / (Mf/Sf + Wc/Sm)

3.697 / (2.595/2.5 + 1.636/1.2)

3.697 / 2.4013333

= 1.5395613

= 1.5394

44.0095

Explanation:

We assume you are converting between grams CO2 and mole. You can view more details on each measurement unit: molecular weight of CO2 or mol This compound is also known as Carbon Dioxide. The SI base unit for amount of substance is the mole.

The reaction A→B is to be carried out isothermally in a continuous-flow reactor. Calculate the PFR volume to consume 99% of A (CA = 0.01CA0) when the entering molar flow rate is 5 mol/h (assume pure A), the volumetric flow rate is constant at 10 dm3 /h and the rate is: -rA=3CA 2 [ dm3 /mol•h]

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the information above:

The equation for the reactor volume of CSTR is given by the formula:

[tex]V = \dfrac{C_{Ao}V_o - C_A V_o }{-rA}[/tex]

[tex]V = \dfrac{C_{Ao}V_o (1 - 0.01)}{KC_A^2}[/tex]

The reaction rate of A is:

[tex]-r_A = kC_A^2[/tex] and k = 3 dm³/mol.h

replacing the values in the above equation to solve for v;

[tex]V = \dfrac{(0.5 \ mol/dm^3) (10 \ dm^3/h) (1 - 0.01)}{ ( 3 \ dm^3/mol.h) (0.01 \times 0.5 \ mol/dm^3)^2}[/tex]

V = 66,000 dm³

Thus, the reactor volume of CSTR is 66000 dm³

Taking the differential mole balance equation for PFR is as follows:

[tex]\dfrac{d(C_AV_o)}{dV} = -r_A[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{d(C_AV_o)}{dV} = Kc^2A[/tex]

Taking the integral between initial and final concentrations;

[tex]\dfrac{v_o}{k} \int ^{C_A}_{C_{Ao}} \dfrac{dC_A}{C^2A}= - \int ^V_o \ dV[/tex]

[tex]V = \dfrac{V_o}{K} \Big [\dfrac{1}{C_A}- \dfrac{1}{C_{Ao}} \Big ][/tex]

replace the values in the above equation;

[tex]V= \dfrac{(10 \ dm^3/h) }{(3 \ dm^3/mol.h)}\Big [ \dfrac{1}{0.01(0.5 \ mol/dm^3)} - \dfrac{1}{0.5 \ mol/dm^3} \Big ][/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{V = 66 0 \ dm^3}[/tex]

Thus, the reactor volume of PFR is 660 dm³

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Aluminum metal and bromine liquid (red) react violently to make aluminum bromide (white powder). One way to represent this equilibrium is:

We could also write this reaction three other ways, listed below. The equilibrium constants for all of the reactions are related. Write the equilibrium constant for each new reaction in terms of K, the equilibrium constant for the reaction above.

1) 2 AlBr3(s) 2 Al(s) + 3 Br2(l)

2) 2 Al(s) + 3 Br2(l) 2 AlBr3(s)

3) AlBr3(s) Al(s) + 3/2 Br2(l)

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:  

We have that; Al(s) + 3/2 Br2(l)AlBr3(s)

So;

Al(s) + 3/2 Br₂(l) = AlBr₃(s)

K = [  AlBr₃] / [ Al] [  Br₂]³/²

K² =  [  AlBr₃]² / [  Al ] ² [ Br₂]³

Now;

1) 2 AlBr₃ = 2 Al(s) + 3 Br₂(l) =

K₁ =  [  Al ] ² [ Br₂]³ /  [  AlBr₃]²

K₁ =  ( 1 / K² ) = K⁻²

For the second reaction;

2 ) 2 Al(s) + 3 Br₂(l) = 2 AlBr₃(s)

K₂ = [ AlBr₃ ]² / [  Al ]² [  Br₂ ]³

K₂ = K²

For the third reaction;

3 )

AlBr₃(s) =   Al(s) + 3/2 Br₂(l)

K₃  = [ Al ] [ Br₂ ] ³/² / [ AlBr₃ ]

=  ( 1 / K ) = K⁻¹

ou are a work study for the chemistry department. Your supervisor has just asked you to prepare 500 mL of 3 M HCl for tomorrow’s undergraduate experiment. In the stockroom explorer, you will find a cabinet called "stock solutions". Open this cabinet to find a 2.5 L bottled labeled "11.6 M HCl". The concentration of the HCl is 11.6 M. Please prepare a flask

Answers

Answer:

Add to a 500mL volumetric flask 300mL of water, the 129mL of the 11.6M HCl solution and then complete to volume with water

Explanation:

To make 500mL = 0.500L of a 3M HCl from the 11.6M HCl stock we need first to find the moles of HCl we need:

Moles HCl:

0.500L * (3mol / L) = 1.5 moles of HCl are needed

These moles are obtained from the 11.6M HCl solution. The volume required is:

1.5mol * (1L / 11.6moles HCl) = 0.129L = 129mL must be added to the solution.

That means to prepare the 500mL of the 3M HCl you need to:

Add to a 500mL volumetric flask 300mL of water, the 129mL of the 11.6M HCl solution and then complete to volume with water

Answer:

Calculation: 11.6 M × V = 3.0 M × 0.500 liters

V = 0.13 liters

Steps for dilution:

Measure out 0.13 liters of the concentrated solution of 11.6 M HCl using a volumetric pipet.

Transfer this into solution into a 500 milliliter volumetric flask.

Add water to the flask until it reaches a total volume of 500 milliliters.

When investigating a factor that effects the rate of photosynthesis, you needed to keep the
plant at a temperature of 250C. How did you do this?

Answers

Answer:

Photosynthesis defines the process by which plants and some bacteria manufacture glucose. Scientists summarize the process as follows: using sunlight, carbon dioxide + water = glucose + oxygen. The process occurs within special structures called chloroplasts located in the cells of leaves. Optimum photosynthetic rates lead to the removal of greater amounts of carbon dioxide from the local atmosphere, producing greater amounts of glucose. Since glucose levels within plants are difficult to measure, scientists utilize the amount of carbon dioxide assimilation or its release as a means to measure photosynthetic rates. During the night, for example, or when conditions are not prime, plants release carbon dioxide. Maximum photosynthetic rates vary between plant species, but crops such as maize can achieve carbon dioxide assimilation rates as high as 0.075 ounce per cubic foot per hour, or 100 milligrams per decimeter per hour. To achieve optimum growth of some plants, farmers keep them in greenhouses that regulate conditions such as humidity and temperature. There are three temperature regimes over which the rate of photosynthesis changes.

Low Temperature

Enzymes are protein molecules used by living organisms to carry out biochemical reactions. The proteins are folded into a very particular shape, and this allows them to bind efficiently to the molecules of interest. At low temperatures, between 32 and 50 degrees Fahrenheit – 0 and 10 degrees Celsius – the enzymes that carry out photosynthesis do not work efficiently, and this decreases the photosynthetic rate. This leads to a decrease in glucose production and will result in stunted growth. For plants inside a greenhouse, the installation of a greenhouse heater and thermostat prevents this from occurring.

A given compound has the following solubility properties. At room temperature, it is soluble in diethyl ether but insoluble in both ethanol and water. At higher temperatures, it is soluble in both diethyl ether and ethanol, but insoluble in water. Propose a procedure for purifying this compound by recrystallization.

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

If we desire to recrystallize the given compound then we must do the following;

1) Add the compound to ethanol and heat the system

2) As the solute dissolves, the solution is allowed to cool

3) The solution may be seeded or the vessel scratched to aid crystallization.

4) The pure crystals are now filtered out, washed and dried.

Remember that recrystallization has to do with dissolving a solute in a solvent in which it is only soluble at high temperature but insoluble at low temperature.

The solvent dissolves the impure solute while pure crystals emerges as the temperature decreases.
