The molar heats of sublimation and fusion of iodine are 62.3kjmol and 15.3kjmol respectively calculate the molar heat of vaporization of liquid iodide?

It is a known fact : Molar heat of sublimation = molar heat of fusion + molar heat of vaporization so, molar heat of vaporization = molar heat of sublimation - molar heat of fusion Mv = 62.3 kJ/mol - 15.3 kJ/mol Mv = 47 kJ/mol.


What is the experimental molar heat of combustion?

The experimental molar heat of combustion is the heat released by the total combustion of a substance, determined in a calorimeter.


What is the difference between heat of reaction and molar heat of reaction?

Heat of a reacion is the totall amount of heat a reaction produces. Molar heat of a reaction is the heat produced/mol if you have the molar hear of the reaction you can calculate the heat of the reaction based on the moles of reactants you have

molar heat of fusion


What is the relation of the molar heat of fusion to the molar heat of vaporization?

Molar heat of fusion: the heat (enthalpy, energy) needed to transform a solid in liquid (expressed in kJ/mol). Molar heat of vaporization: the heat (enthalpy, energy) needed to transform a liquid in gas (expressed in kJ/mol).


How do you figure out molar heat of combustion of phenol at 25 degrees celsius?

The molar heat of combustion of phenol can be calculated by measuring the heat released when a known amount of phenol is completely burned in a calorimeter. The heat released is then used to calculate the molar heat of combustion using the mass of phenol burned and the molar quantity of phenol. This calculation can be done using the formula: heat released = molar heat of combustion x moles of phenol.

When 1 gram of zinc chloride ZnCl2 is dissolved in water the heat evolved is 0.53kJ Calculate the molar heat of substance of solution of zinc chloride?

To calculate the molar heat of solution of zinc chloride, we use the heat evolved by dissolving 1 gram of ZnCl2 in water. First, we convert the mass of ZnCl2 to moles using its molar mass of 136.3 g/mol. Then, we divide the heat evolved by the number of moles dissolved to get the molar heat of solution. In this case, the molar heat of solution would be 3.89 kJ/mol.


Is molar heat capacity intensive or extensive?

Molar heat capacity is an extensive property because it depends on the amount of substance being considered.


How do you measure molar heat capacity?

Specific heat is the heat capacity divided by the heat capacity of water, which makes it dimensionless. To obtain molar heat capacity from specific heat for a material of interest, simply multiply the specific heat by the heat capacity of water per gram [1 cal/(g*C)]and multiply by the molecular weight of the substance of interest. For example, to obtain the molar heat capacity of iron Specific heat of iron = 0.15 (note there are no units) Molar heat capacity of iron = 0.15*1 cal/(g*C)*55.85 g /gmole = 8.378 cal/(gmole*C)


Estimate the molar heat of vaporization of a liquid whose vapor pressure doubles when the temperature is raised from 85 C to 95 C?

The molar heat of vaporization can be estimated by using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation, which relates the vapor pressure of a substance to its temperature and molar heat of vaporization. By knowing the temperature change and the corresponding increase in vapor pressure, calculations can be made to determine the molar heat of vaporization.


Why you prefer molar specific heat as compared to the simple specific heat?

In chemistry instead mass in kg it would be nice to deal the quantity in moles. Hence molar specific heat is best fit.
