view policies\ncurrent attempt in progress\nif a calorimeter has a heat capacity of $c_{cal}=1056 j^{circ}c^{-1}$, and a reaction caused a temperature increase of $3.7^{circ}c$, what are $q_{calorimeter}$ and $q_{chemicals}$?\n$q_{calorimeter}=3.9 kj, q_{chemicals}=0 kj.$\n$q_{calorimeter}=-3.9 kj, q_{chemicals}=-3.9 kj.$\n$q_{calorimeter}=-3.9 kj, q_{chemicals}=3.9 kj.$\n$q_{calorimeter}=3.9 kj, q_{chemicals}=3.9 kj.$\n$q_{calorimeter}=3.9 kj, q_{chemicals}=-3.9 kj.$
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Calculate heat absorbed by calorimeter
Use the formula $q_{cal}=C_{cal}\times\Delta T$. Given $C_{cal} = 1056\ J^{\circ}C^{-1}$ and $\Delta T=3.7^{\circ}C$. $q_{cal}=1056\ J^{\circ}C^{-1}\times3.7^{\circ}C = 3907.2\ J=3.9\ kJ$
Step2: Determine heat of chemicals
According to the law of conservation of energy in a calorimetry - system, $q_{cal}+q_{chemicals}=0$. So $q_{chemicals}=-q_{cal}$. Since $q_{cal} = 3.9\ kJ$, then $q_{chemicals}=- 3.9\ kJ$.
Answer:
$q_{calorimeter}=3.9\ kJ,q_{chemicals}=-3.9\ kJ$ (the last option)
