Calculate the amount of heat needed to boil of benzene beginning from a temperature of . be sure your answer has a unit symbol and the correct number of significant digit

Check explanation

Explanation:

From the question, the parameters given are 64.7g of benzene,C6H6; a starting temperature of 41.9°C and bringing it to 33.2°C.

Molar mass of benzene,C6H6= 78.11236 g/mol.

Things to know: heat capacity of benzene, C6H6= 1.63 J/g.K, the heat of fusion = 9.87 kj/mol.

STEP ONE(1): ENERGY USED IN MELTING BENZENE SOLID.

Using the formula below;

Energy used in melting the solid(in JOULES) = (mass of benzene/molar mass of benzene) × heat of Fusion.

=(64.7 g of C6H6/ 78.11236(g per mol) of C6H6) × 9.87 kJ per mol.

= 8.175 J.

= 0.008175 kJ.

STEP TWO (2): ENERGY OF HEATING THE LIQUID.

It can be calculated from the formula below;

Energy= heat capacity (J/g.K) × mass of benzene× (∆T).

= 1.63 J/g.K × 64.7 × (41.9-33.2).

= 917.5J.

= 0.9175 kJ.

Energy required to boil benzene= Energy required to melt the bezene + energy required for boiling.

= 0.008175+ 0.9175.

= 0.93kJ

Approximately, 1 kJ

one negative thing it that it can kill water animals. another negative thing is it can cause the destruction of ecosystem. one way water pollution can be reduced is to conserve energy.
