Chemistry 11 Practice Test 2 Solution Set

 

1)      Compare the macroscopic and microscopic properties of sold and liquid phases.

 

Solids maintain their shape, liquids take the shape of their container.

Solids and liquids do not change significantly in volume.

The atoms/molecules in solids are more tightly bonded than in liquids.

In solids and liquids the particles are close together (in contact) but in liquids they are able to slide past each other while in solids the particles (atoms/molecules) remain in the same position relative to each other.

In liquid phase the particles are moving more rapidly (they are hotter) than in solid phase for the same substance.

 

 

 

 

2)      Water ice at 0ºC is melted to make liquid water at 0ºC by adding 200,000 J of heat energy.  How much ice will be melted? 

 

Use the formula q=mL  with L being heat of fusion since this is solid to liquid phase change.   Solve algebraically for m:

 

m = q/L   with q being 200,000 J and Lf= 3.35 × 105J/kg

 

so m = 200,000 J/ 3.35 × 105J/kg = 0.597 g

 

 

 

3)      500 g of liquid water at 10ºC releases 17,000 J of heat energy.  What will its final temperature be?

 

Now use q=mcΔT and find ΔT algebraically:

 

ΔT = q/mc   where q is 17,000J, m is 0.500kg  (you need to convert to kg given that c is in kg) and Cliq water = 4186 J/kgCº

 

 

So ΔT = 17,000J/(0.500kg × 4186 J/kgCº) = 8.12Cº

 

Since initial temp is 10ºC and heat is lost, it must cool donw by 8.12 Cº to become 1.88ºC

 

 

4)      Consider the graph here:

a)      What is the melting point for this substance?

 

200ºC

b)      What is the boiling point for this substance?

 

500ºC

 

c)      For which phase is the specific heat biggest?

 

Lowest slope has biggest c so answer is gas phase

 

d)      For which phase is the specific heat smallest?

 

Highest slope has smallest c so answer is liquid phase

 

 

Data for Water

Lf= 3.35 × 105J/kg

Lv= 2.26 × 106J/kg

Cliq water = 4186 J/kgCº

Cice = 2000 J/kgCº
