Question
The molar heat of combustion of naphthalene (M.W. = 128.17) is –1228.2

The temperature of the calorimeter and the water before combustion was 17.49 °C; after combustionthe calorimeter and the water had a temperature of 27.28 °C. The calorimeter had a heat capacity of 832 J/K,and contained 0.837 kg of water. Use these data to calculate the molar heat of combustion (in kJ) of benzoicacid.arrow_forwardPlease fill in the four blanks.

- A student runs two experiments with a constant-volume "bomb" calorimeter containing 1100. g of water (see sketch at right). thermometer stirrer First, a 5.500 g tablet of benzoic acid (C,H,CO, H) is put into the "bomb" and burned completely in an excess of water oxygen. (Benzoic acid is known to have a heat of combustion of 26.454 kJ/g.) The temperature of the water is observed insulation to rise from 15.00 °C to 42.56 °C over a time of 10.3 minutes. Next, 5.720 g of acetaldehyde (C2H,O} are put into the "bomb" and similarly completely burned in an excess of oxygen. This time the temperature of the water rises from 15.00 °C to 40.53 °C. chemical reaction "bomb" Use this information, and any other information you need from the ALEKS Data resource, to answer the questions below about this reaction: A "bomb" calorimeter. 2C,H,0(g) + 50, (g) 4CO, (g) + 4H,0 (g) Be sure any of your answers that are calculated from measured data are rounded to the correct number of significant digits.

- Hot water heaters often use natural gas (methane) to generate heat. Methane and oxygen react to form carbon monoxide according to the overall equation: 2CH4(g)+3O2(g) = 2CO(g)+4H2O(g) The enthalpy of formation for each compound are as follows: CH4: - 74.6 O2: 0 CO: - 110.5 H2O: - 285.8 Part A: calculate the overall enthalpy change of the reaction. Part B: A typical water heater contains 40.0 gallons of water. After a long vacation, you come home and turn your water heater from "vacation mode" to hot. How many moles of methane must be combusted to heat the water in your water heater from 30.0°C to 48.0°C? The density of water is 3.79 kg/gal, the specific heat capacity of water is 4.182 J/g°C, and the water heater has a heat capacity of 850.0 J/g°C.arrow_forwardthermometer -1.c A sample of glass, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.670 J'g contains 200.0 g of water.

The pressure remains constant at 1 atm. is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) that insulated container water Calculate the mass of the glass sample. Be sure your answer is rounded to the correct number of significant digits. sample a calorimeter Ox10arrow_forwardA student conducted several calorimetry investigations. In the first of the investigations, the student heats a 21.0 g price of metal that is know to have a specific heat capacity of 0.449 J/g°C to a temperature of 80°C. Then a piece of metal is added to the beaker of water (70.0 grams at 20.00°C). The specific heat capacity of water is 4.187 J/g°C. If the student repeated the investigation with 50.0 g of water instead what would be different.arrow_forward
