If 75.4 J of energy is absorbed by 0.25 mol of CCl4 at constant pressure, what is the change in temperature? The specific heat of CCl4 is 0.861 J/g·°C.

The change in temperature is 2.28 °C

First, we will determine the mass of CCl₄ absorbed

From the given information,

Number of moles of CCl₄ absorbed = 0.25 mol

Using the formula

Mass = Number of moles × Molar mass

Molar mass of CCl₄ = 153.82 g/mol

∴ Mass of CCl₄ absorbed = 0.25 × 153.82

Mass of CCl₄ absorbed = 38.455 g

Now, using the formula

Q = mcΔT

Where Q is the quantity of heat

m is the mass

c is the specific heat of substance

and ΔT is the change in temperature

From the given information

Q = 75.4 J

c = 0.861 J/g.°C

Putting the parameters into the formula, we get  

75.4 = 38.455 × 0.861 ×ΔT

75.4 = 33.109755 × ΔT

∴ ΔT = 75.4 ÷ 33.109755

ΔT = 2.28 °C

Hence, the change in temperature is 2.28 °C

ΔT = 2.28°C

Explanation:

Heat, H = 75.4J

Number of moles = 0.25 mol

Specific heat capacity, c = 0.861 J/g·°C

Change in temperature, ΔT = ?

These quantities are related by the following equation;

H = mc ΔT

Mass, m = Number of moles * Molar mass

m = 0.25mol * 153.82 g/mol

m = 38.455g

S back to the equation;

H = mc ΔT

Substituting the values;

75.4 = 38.455 * 0.861 * ΔT

ΔT = 75.4 /  33.11

ΔT = 2.28°C

the old alchemists made significant contributions to science even though there starting premises were off a bit. their conclusions after failure would steer them into better directions for investigation. science is no more than close observation and the initial mistakes result in rethinking and retrying experiments.
