Q8 / 160 · AP EAMCET 2019 (21 Apr Shift 1) · Chemistry

The heat required to rise the temperature of $54 \mathrm{~g}$ of aluminium from $40^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ to $60^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ in $\mathrm{J}$ is (molar heat capacity of aluminium in this temperature range is $24 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1}$; atomic weight of $\mathrm{Al}$ is 27)

  • A
    480
  • B
    800
  • Correct answer
    C
    960
  • D
    1280

Solution

Given, Weight of aluminium $(w)=54 \mathrm{~g}$ Temperature difference $(\Delta T)=60^{\circ}-40^{\circ}=20^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ Molar heat capacity of aluminium $$ \left(C_s\right)=24 \mathrm{~J} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1} \mathrm{~K}^{-1} $$ Atomic mass of $(\mathrm{Al})$, i.e. $(M)=27$ $\because \operatorname{Moles}$ of $(\mathrm{Al})$, i.e. $n=\frac{w}{M}=\frac{54}{27}=2 \mathrm{~mol}$ Heat required $(Q)=n C_s \Delta T$ $$ =2 \times 24 \times 20=960 \mathrm{~J} $$ Hence, option (c) is the correct answer.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
