9.) As mentioned below, you are required to design your own procedure for determining the heat of dissolution of your chosen salt with a coffee cup calorimeter. Answer the following questions and consider them in designing this procedure:

     a.) When you find your initial temperature Ti, should you take one measurement from the thermometer as soon as you place it in the water in the calorimeter? Why or why not? If not, what should you do instead?

     b.) Do you expect the temperature of the water in the calorimeter to rise, fall, or stay the same after you add your salt? If the temperature will change, will it continue to change indefinitely or not?

     c.) How will you know your dissolved salt solution has reached it's maximum or minimum temperature, i.e. what will you observe in your data to indicate this has happened?

     d.) Should you repeat your experiment? Why or why not? If so, what could you change from trial to trial? Give two possible suggestions, and determine which one you should change (as well as which one you should not!) in any subsequent trials you decide to perform.

*Information previously calculated is below*

1. Calculate the amount of heat (q) produced by the combustion of 4.05 g CH4 (ΔHcomb = -890.4 kJ).

225.38 kj

2. Consider that the 4.05 g methane is burned and all of the heat from this combustion is absorbed by 1.0 kg of 20 °C water (use 4.18 g-1 ºC-1 for the specific heat of the water). What would be the final temperature of the water?

73.8°C

0.5 mole of a monatomic ideal gas is loaded into a cylinder and contained by a frictionless piston. The piston is set so that there is an initial volume of 2L. The gas in the cylinder is at a temperature of 298K. The gas is allowed to expand adiabatically against 1 atm of pressure. Calculate V/n initial, q per mole, w per mole, delta U per mole, delta S per mole and delta H per mole. What is the final temperature of the gas in Kelvin and Celcius?

  1. What is natural radioactivity? Speak to the different types of radiation that an unstable nucleus may emit, and the different types of radiation involved.
  2. Why is it important to be able to write a balanced nuclear equation for radioactive decay? Go into some of the specifics of what is involved in writing an equation.
  3. What is a “half-life” and why is it important to know the half-life of a radioisotope? List a few applications of how scientists make use of having this knowledge. Why would it be so important to know the half-lives of radioisotopes when it comes to medical applications?
  4. Briefly describe how we can make use our knowledge of radioactivity in medicine. Speak about the characteristics of the radioisotopes used in these types of applications. What might they have in common? What process(es) do we use to detect these radioisotopes?

1A. Determine the pH of a KOH solution made by mixing 0.251 g KOH (s) with enough water to make 1.00 × 102 mL of solution. Assume 100% purity for the KOH (s).

1B. Predict the direction in which the equilibrium will lie for the following reaction:     H3PO4(aq) + HSO4−(aq) H2PO4−(aq) + H2SO4(aq).    Ka1(H3PO4) = 7.5 × 10−3;

Ka(H2SO4) = very large    

2. For H3PO4, Ka1 = 7.3 × 10−3, Ka2 = 6.2 × 10−6, and Ka3 = 4.8 × 10−13. An aqueous solution of Na3PO4 therefore would be?
