How much heat is released when 50.0 g of ethanol cools from 90 °c to 79 °c?

1100 J.

Explanation:

c of ethanol (gas) is 2.0 J/g°C.

Q = m.c.ΔT.

where, Q is the amount of heat released from ethanol cooling,

m is the mass of ethanol (m = 50.0 g),

c is the specific heat of ethanol in the gas phase (c = 2.0 J/g °C),

ΔT is the temperature difference (final T - initial T) (ΔT = 79.0 °C – 90.0 °C = - 11.0 °C).

∴ Q = m.c.ΔT = (50.0 g)(2.0 J/g °C)(- 11.0 °C) = - 1100 J.

The system releases 1100 J.

  the   balanced   equation   for   reaction of   ca metal   with   o2 to   produce   cao   is as below

2 ca+ o2→ 2 cao2

  explanation

the reaction is   balanced     since the   number of atoms   in reactant side is   equal to   number of atoms   in   product side.   for   example   they   are 2   atom of   ca in   reactant   side   and   2   atoms of ca   in   the product side.

  the   process   is a   meet the   requirement   of   redox   reaction because :     calcium   is   oxidized   from   oxidation state 0   to 2+   while   oxygen   is reduced from   oxidation   state   0   to 2-
