- 4 Having just invented a new type of calorimeter, Dr. Campbell needs to determine the heat capacity of the calorimeter. She carries out the following experiment to do this: She puts 20.0 grams of water in her empty calorimeter and it is allowed to stabilize at a temperature of 25.0ºC. She then adds 32.035 grams of water at a temperature of 83.2ºC to the calorimeter. After a few minutes the final temperature of the calorimeter stabilizes at 41.6ºC. Based on this experiment, what is the heat capacity of her calorimeter assuming units of J/ºC? Enter your answer with at least 3 sig figs.arrow_forwardA 21.42g sample of an unknown metal was heated to 99.5ºC, and the added to 50.00g of water contained in a foam coffee cup. The initial temperature of the water was 20.5ºC, and the final temperature of the metal and water was 25.1ºC. The calorimeter constant for the coffee-cup calorimeter was 13.5 J/ºC.

- A student runs two experiments with a constant-volume "bomb" calorimeter containing 1400. g of water (see sketch at right). First, a 5.000 g tablet of benzoic acid (CH-CO₂H) is put into the "bomb" and burned completely in an excess of oxygen. (Benzoic acid is known to have a heat of combustion of 26.454 kJ/g.) The temperature of the water is observed to rise from 21.00 °C to 42.00 °C over a time of 8.5 minutes. Next, 5.190 g of ethylene (C₂H4) are put into the "bomb" and similarly completely burned in an excess of oxygen. This time the temperature of the water rises from 21.00 °C to 63.35 °C. Use this information, and any other information you need from the ALEKS Data resource, to answer the questions below about this reaction: Is this reaction exothermic, endothermic, or neither? If you said the reaction was exothermic or endothermic, calculate the amount of heat that was released or absorbed by the reaction in the second experiment. exothermic C₂H₂(g) + 30₂(g) → 2CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(g) Be…arrow_forwardAt constant volume, the heat of combustion of a particular compound is -3916.0 kJ/mol.

- A 6.55 g sample of an unknown salt (MM = 116.82 g/mol) is dissolved in 150.00 g water in a coffee cup calorimeter. Before placing the sample in the water, the temperature of the salt and water is 23.72°C. After the salt has completely dissolved, the temperature of the solution is 28.54°C.

What is Cmagnesium in J/g-K?arrow_forwardA bomb calorimeter, or constant volume calorimeter, is a device often used to determine the heat of combustion of fuels and the energy available from foods. Since the "bomb" itself can absorb energy, a separate experiment is needed to determine the heat capacity of the calorimeter. This is known as calibrating the calorimeter. In the laboratory a student burns a 0.461-g sample of 2-naphthylacetic acid (C12H1002) in a bomb calorimeter containing 1150. g water. The temperature increases from 24.70 °C to 27.20 °C. The specific heat capacity of water is 4.184 J g1 oC-1. The combustion enthalpy is -5779 kJ/mol 2-naphthylacetic acid.
