A certain chemical reaction releases of heat for each gram of reactant consumed. How can you calculate what mass of reactant will produce of heat

Specific heat capacity formula

Explanation:

The heat capacity gives the exact heat energy at which a given mass of a substance is heated from one temperature to another.

This formula can help determine how much heat is gained or lost during the reaction and is given by:

Q = mcΔT

where:

Q = heat energy in Joules or Calories

m - mass of the substance (g)

c = Specific heat capacity (J/kg°C)

ΔT = change in temperature = (final temp - initial temp) (°C)

how do models compare to real-world objects?

d. most models represent a real-world object in a simpler way.

when 25.0 ml of 0.700 mol/l naoh was mixed in a calorimeter with 25.0 ml of 0.700 mol/l hcl, both initially at 20.0 °c, the temperature increased to 22.1 °c. the heat capacity of the calorimeter is 279 j/°c.

the equation for the reaction is:

naoh + hcl → nacl + h₂o

moles of hcl = 0.0250 l hcl ×

0.700

mol hcl

1 l hcl = 0.0175 mol hcl

volume of solution = (25.0 + 25.0) ml = 50.0 ml

mass of solution = 50.0 ml soln ×

1.00

ml soln

= 50.0 g soln

δt=t2-t1

= (22.1 – 20.0) °c = 2.1 °c

the heats involved are

heat from neutralization + heat to warm solution + heat to warm calorimeter = 0

q1+q2+q3=0
