Answer:

If a metal is less reactive than carbon, it can be extracted from its oxide by heating with carbon. The carbon displaces the metal from the compound, and removes the oxygen from the oxide. This leaves the metal.

The The thermal conductivity of a sheet of rigid, extruded insulation is reported to be k=0.029 W/ m measured temperature differ

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Heat flux = 13.92 W/m2

Rate of heat transfer throug the 3m x 3m sheet = 125.28 W

The thermal resistance of the 3x3m sheet is 0.0958 K/W

Explanation:

The rate of heat transfer through a 3m x 3m sheet of insulation can be calculated as:

$q=-k*A*\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta X}\\\\q=-0.029\frac{W}{m*K}*(3m*3m)*\frac{12K}{0.025m} =125.28W$

The heat flux can be defined as the amount of heat flow by unit of area.

Using the previous calculation, we can estimate the heat flux:

$heat \, flux=\frac{q}{A}=\frac{125.28 W}{9 m^{2} } =13.92 W/m^{2}$

It can also be calculated as:

$q/A=-k*\frac{\Delta T}{\Delta X}$

The thermal resistance can be expressed as

$\Delta T=R_t*Q\\R_t=\Delta T/Q=\frac{\Delta X}{k*A}$

For the 3m x 3m sheet, the thermal resistance is

$R_t = \frac{\Delta X}{k*A}=\frac{0.025m}{0.029W/mK*9m^{2}}=0.0958 \, K/W$

How is the number of electrons in an element determined?

elixir [45]

The number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in an atom can be determined from a set of simple rules. The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom is equal to the atomic number (Z). The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons.
