Re: Winter 2011 Final 1A: Heat required to boil water

Step 1 : Heat liquid water from 25.0°C to 100°C (q 1 ) q=mC s ΔT q 1 =(50.0 g)(4.184 J.°C -1 .g -1 )(75.0 °C) q 1 =15.69 kJ Step 2 : Turn liquid water to water vapor (q 2 ) ΔH vap =40.7 kJ.mol -1 (from equation sheet) 50.0 mL=50.0 g=2.775 mol of water (convert given mL to mol) q=mΔH vap q 2 =(2.775...

Winter 2011 Final 1A: Heat required to boil water

Q: Suppose you want to use methane gas (ΔH c =-890. kJ/mol) to boil 50.0 mL of water at 25.0°C. How many grams of methane gas would need to be combusted to generate the required heat? A: Solve for q (heat) using q=mC s ΔT, which gives q=15.7 kJ. Then, use q=nΔH c to find the moles of methane, and fi...

Re: 8.10 units question

If you want, you can use 1 J=.009869 L*atm as a shortcut to convert L*atm to joules! The value is derived from the gas constant, R. (Divide R=8.314 J/(K*mol) by R=8.206x10^-2 L*atm*K^-1, then divide 1 by that quotient to get 1 J=.009869 L*atm)
