Explanation / Answer

11.

The First Law of Thermodynamics states that heat is a form of energy, and thermodynamic processes are therefore subject to the principle of conservation of energy. This means that heat energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can, however, be transferred from one location to another and converted to and from other forms of energy.

U = q + w

In this case, w is defined as the work done *on* the system *by* the surroundings. Now positive work increases the internal energy of the system, and negative work decreases it. This convention is a little more consistent, in that positive signs for q and w are both associated with quantities going *into* the system (q is the heat added *to* the system, and w is work done *on* the system).

Sn(s) + 2H+(aq) ==> Sn(2+)(aq) +H2(g)
The work is done by releasing H2 gas.
The molar mass of Sn: 118.71 g/mol.
50.0g Sn <=> 0.421 mol Sn ==> reacted to get 0.421 mol H2
==> W = nRT = 0.421*8.314*298 = 1.04 kJ

33. q =C(T)
q =(0.385 J/g.oC)(303.8 oC)
q =116.96 J/g x 6220 g
q =727.51 kJ
