Answer:
1,100 Joules of heat is released when 50.0 g of ethanol cools from 90 °C to 79 °C.
Explanation:
Mass of an ethanol = 50.0 g
Specific heat capacity of the ethanol vapor's = c = 2.0 J/g°C
Initial temperature of the ethanol vapors = 90 °C
Final temperature of the ethanol vapors = 79°C
Heat released on cooling of ethanol vapors = Q
[tex]Q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)[/tex]
[tex]Q=50.0 g\times 2.0 J/g^oC\times (79^oC-90^oC)[/tex]
[tex]Q=-1,100 J[/tex]
Negative sign indicates that the heat is released into the surroundings.
1,100 Joules of heat is released when 50.0 g of ethanol cools from 90 °C to 79 °C.
