- Alexia determined the mass of her empty Styrofoam cup calorimeter was 1.4528 g. She then added distilled water to the cup and weighed it again. The combined mass of the cup + water was 26.7041 g. What is the mass of water, in g, in Alexia's cup?arrow_forwardA calorimeter is calibrated to have a heat capacity of 441.2 J/°c. 0.143 g of substance X is burned in the calorimeter and raises its temperature from 23.1 °c to 39.5°c. What is the heat of combustion of substance X in J/g?arrow_forwardAqueous hydrobromic acid HBr reacts with solid sodium hydroxide NaOH to produce aqueous sodium bromide NaBr and liquid water H2O. If 10.0g of water is produced from the reaction of 58.3g of hydrobromic acid and 50.1g of sodium hydroxide, calculate the percent yield of water. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits in it. I keep getting this problem wrong because of the sig. digits, dont round till the end because if it is off by 0.1, it will be incorrect.arrow_forward
- A student is asked to identify an unknown piece of metal. The metal has a mass of 12.34 g. It is placed in a boiling water bath and brought up to 99.98 oC. A coffee-cup calorimeter is set up with 103.25 mL of water (density = 1.00 g/mL and specific heat = 4.184 J/g.oC) at a room temperature of 21.30 oC. The metal is removed from the boiling water and placed in the calorimeter. A final temperature is recorded as 22.32 oC. Find the specific heatcapacity of the unknown metal.
