Answer : The final temperature of Aluminium is 17° C

Explanation :

The rubbing alcohol evaporates at 25 °C . That means it changes from liquid state to gaseous state. This process is known as Vaporization and the amount of heat it absorbs is known as enthalpy of vaporization.

Step 1 : Find moles of alcohol

We have 1.5 g of C₃H₈O.

Let us find the moles of alcohol.

$Mole = \frac{Mass}{MolarMass}$

Molar mass of rubbing alcohol is 60.1 g/mol

$mole = \frac{1.5g}{60.1g/mol} = 0.025 mol$

Step 2 : Find heat absorbed by given amount of alcohol

The enthalpy of vaporization of rubbing alcohol is 45 kJ/mol

The amount of heat absorbed by alcohol can be calculated as follows.

$q_{alcohol} = \bigtriangleup H_{vap} \times moles$

$q_{alcohol} = \frac{45kJ}{mol} \times 0.025mol = 1.12 kJ$

So during the process of evaporation, alcohol absorbs 1.12 kJ of heat.

This heat is taken from the aluminium.

Step 3 : Equate the q values for alcohol and aluminium

Therefore we have , $q_{alcohol} = - q_{Al}$

$q_{Al} = -1.12 kJ$

Step 4 : Find delta T for Al using the heat value found in the above step

Heat lost by Aluminium can be calculated using following equation

$q = m \times C \times \bigtriangleup T$

Here q is the amount of heat lost by Al. We need to convert q from kJ to J

$1.12 kJ \times \frac{1000J}{1kJ} = 1120 J$

C is the specific heat of Al which is 0.9 J/gC

ΔT is the change in temperature of Aluminium.

m is the mass of Al which is 150 g.

Let us plug in the values and solve for ΔT

$-1120J = 150g \times 0.9 J/gC \times \bigtriangleup T$

$\bigtriangleup T= \frac{-1120J}{0.9J/gC \times 150g}$

$\bigtriangleup T = -8.3 C$

Step 5 : Find final temperature using delta T

But ΔT is the difference in final temperature and initial temperature.

$\bigtriangleup T = T_{f} - T_{i}$

$-8.3 = T_{f} - 25 C$

$T_{f} = 25 C - 8.3 C$

$T_{f}= 16.7 C$

The final temperature of Aluminium is 17° C

a boiling water reactor does not boil the water. a pressurized water reactor boils the water faster. a pressurized water reactor is heated directly by the core. a pressurized water reactor does not use fission.

Answer:

a. energy is absorbed in the reaction.

explanation:

if in a given reaction the energy of products is greater than the energy of reactants it means that reaction is endothermic and during the reaction, the energy is absorbed by reactants. in an endothermic reaction, the products have more stored chemical energy than the reactants. and in this reaction the reactants are more stable than products before the compounds with less energy are always more stable.
