Chapter 4, Problem 1QRT
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The two laws given in this chapter has to be explained in own words.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
First law of
First law of thermodynamics – Law of conservation of energy: Energy is always converted from one form to another but it cannot be created or destroyed.
Hess’s Law: The production of specific products from specific reactants involves series of steps. The summation of enthalpy change of that individual steps will be equal to the net reaction enthalpy change.

1. A 2.15-gram cashew nut is burned. The heat released raises the temperature of a 100.0-gram sample of water from 18.2°C to 31.5°C. The mass of the nut after the experiment is 1.78 grams. Determine the calorie content of the nut in Calories/gram. Assume that the water is only able to absorb 25% of the heat released by the burning nut. Given 1.00 Calorie=4.18 kJ.

2. A large paraffin candle has a mass of 96.83 gram. A metal cup with 100.0 mL of water at 16.2°C absorbs the heat from the burning candle and increases its temperature to 35.7°C. Once the burning is ceased, the temperature of the water was 35.7°C and the paraffin had a mass of 96.14 gram. Determine the heat of combustion of paraffin in kJ/gram. GIVEN: density of water = 1.0 g/mL.
