    Finding the Final Temperature of a Water Mixture: A Chemistry Problem

    Hi all, i often help out in the chemistry section, was wondering if you could help me with a question: A vessel of thermal capacity 500 J/oC contains 0.5 kg of water at 50oC. 0.2 kg of water at 20oC is added and perfectly mixed with the hotter water. In this process, heat is lost by the...

    What is the Enthalpy and Internal Energy Change for a Thermochemical Reaction?

    1 mole of a gas = 24 L (24dm^3) So you have your mass, so just change that into number of moles, then multiply by 24 L. That will find your Volume.

    Equality Reaction: Questions & Answers - Fred

    Hi there, \mathrm{K_c} = \frac{\mathrm{[HBr]^2}}{\mathrm{[H_2] \cdot [Br_2]}} Where i = initial and f = final [H2init--][Br2init]--[2HBr2init] [0.340--][0.220 ]--[2---x---] [H2Fin--]Br2Fin ]--[2HBr2fin] [0.1396 ][0.0196]--[2---x--] /_\ = 0.2004 So 2HBr = 2 x /_\ = 2 x 0.2004...

    Calculating Formula Weights for Common Chemical Compounds

    K=39.098 S=32.060 O=15.999 So: K2=78.197 S=32.060 O4=63.998 So: K2SO4=174.254 Do the same for the other ones.

    Calculating CO2 and CH4 Partial Pressure - Reaction Formula

    CH4+ 202 --> 2H2O + CO2 CH4 = 100g 2O2 = 100g Mr of substances (one mole weighs): CH4 = 16.043g O2 = 31.999 so 2O2 = 63.998 H2O = 18.015 so 2H2O = 63.030 CO2 = 44.010. Now calculate number of moles: Number of moles = Mr / w (w = mass of substance) CH4 = 100 /...
