Answer:
Explanation:
1 mol of ideal gas at STP occupies 22.4 (or 22.7 depending on the convention being used for STP) liters in volume. I will use 22.4 so 17.88*22.4 = 400.5 L
Answer:
Accuracy
Explanation:
It is important for scientists to review the work of other scientists, so they can be sure there are no mistakes or lack of judgement. They repeat to compare results to make hypotheses.
Answer:
H3PO4 + 3KOH ----> K3PO4 + 3H2O
Explanation:
The valency of K element is + 1 while that of PO4 compound is -3
Hence, at least 3 K atoms are needed to combine with PO4 to form K3PO4 compound.
Hence, the revised equation will be
H3PO4 + 3KOH ----> K3PO4 + 3H2O
Now, the number of atoms and charges of each element is a given equation are equal on both the left and right hand side.

Answer:</h3>
0.111 J/g°C
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
We are given;
- Mass of the unknown metal sample as 58.932 g
- Initial temperature of the metal sample as 101°C
- Final temperature of metal is 23.68 °C
- Volume of pure water = 45.2 mL
But, density of pure water = 1 g/mL
- Therefore; mass of pure water is 45.2 g
- Initial temperature of water = 21°C
- Final temperature of water is 23.68 °C
- Specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g°C
We are required to determine the specific heat of the metal;
<h3>Step 1: Calculate the amount of heat gained by pure water</h3>
Q = m × c × ΔT
For water, ΔT = 23.68 °C - 21° C
= 2.68 °C
Thus;
Q = 45.2 g × 4.184 J/g°C × 2.68°C
= 506.833 Joules
<h3>Step 2: Heat released by the unknown metal sample</h3>
We know that, Q = m × c × ΔT
For the unknown metal, ΔT = 101° C - 23.68 °C
= 77.32°C
Assuming the specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is c
Then;
Q = 58.932 g × c × 77.32°C
= 4556.62c Joules
<h3>Step 3: Calculate the specific heat capacity of the unknown metal sample</h3>
- We know that, the heat released by the unknown metal sample is equal to the heat gained by the water.
4556.62c Joules = 506.833 Joules
c = 506.833 ÷4556.62
= 0.111 J/g°C
Thus, the specific heat capacity of the unknown metal is 0.111 J/g°C
