Capitolo 5, Problema 54c

Consider the data about gold metal in Exercise 5.24(b). c. What is the molar heat capacity of Au(s)?

Guida verificata passo dopo passo
1
Identify the given data from Exercise 5.24(b) related to gold (Au), such as its specific heat capacity and molar mass.
Recall the formula for molar heat capacity: \( C_m = c \times M \), where \( c \) is the specific heat capacity and \( M \) is the molar mass.
Substitute the specific heat capacity of gold into the formula. The specific heat capacity is typically given in units of \( \text{J/g} \cdot \text{°C} \).
Substitute the molar mass of gold into the formula. The molar mass of gold is approximately 197 g/mol.
Multiply the specific heat capacity by the molar mass to find the molar heat capacity of gold in units of \( \text{J/mol} \cdot \text{°C} \).

Concetti chiave

Ecco i concetti essenziali che devi comprendere per rispondere correttamente alla domanda.

Molar Heat Capacity

Molar heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one mole of a substance by one degree Celsius (or one Kelvin). It is an important property that reflects how a substance absorbs and retains heat, influencing its thermal behavior. For solids like gold, this value can vary based on temperature and phase.

Specific Heat Capacity

Specific heat capacity is the heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance by one degree Celsius. While molar heat capacity is expressed per mole, specific heat is often used for practical calculations involving smaller quantities. The relationship between the two can be established through the molar mass of the substance.

Thermodynamic Properties of Metals

The thermodynamic properties of metals, including heat capacity, are influenced by their atomic structure and bonding. Metals typically have high thermal conductivity and specific heat capacities, which affect how they respond to heat. Understanding these properties is essential for applications in materials science and engineering, particularly in processes involving temperature changes.
