When common salt is dissolved in water

The water equivalent of a calorimeter is 10 g and it contains 50 g of water at 15^@C . Some amount of ice, initially -10^@C is dropped in it and half of the ice melts till equilibrium is reached. What was the initial amount of ice that was dropped (when specific heat of ice = 0.5 cal g^-1^@C^-1, specific heat of water = 1.0 cal g^1^@C^-1 and latent heat of melting of ice =80 cal g^-1 )?

Apparatus : Test tube, beakers, burner, etc. Chemicals : Glacial ethanoic acid, ethanol, concentrated sulphuric acid, etc. Procedure : Take 1 mL ethanol and 1 mL glacial ethanoic acid in a test tube. Add a few drops of concentrated sulphuric acid in it. Keeps this test tube in the beaker containing hot water (hot water bath) for five minutes. Then take 20-30 mL water in another beaker, and pour the above reaction mixture in it and smell it. What can you say about the smell of the reaction mixture?

Carbon forms a large number of compounds because of its two unique properties formed many have long straight chains of carbon, branched chains of carbon or rings of carbon. In these compounds, carbon atoms may form single, double or triple covalent bonds. Compounds in which the carbon atoms are linked to each other by single bonds are called saturated carbon compounds whereas compounds having at least one carbon-carbon double or triple bond are called unsaturated carbon compounds. Compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen are known as hydrocarbons. Based on the above information, answer the following questions. v. What is common name and molecular formula of ethyne?
