Q = mcΔt, q = energy [J] m = mass (of water) [g]; c = specific heat capacity of water [J g⁻¹ K⁻¹/°C⁻¹]; Δt = change in temperature [K/°C]
Δt = 121 - -24 = 145
q = 39 × 4.18 × 145
q = 23637.9 J
Because potassium is more reactive than hydrogen
Answer:
d. 103.3
Explanation:
In the given question, the National Weather Service routinely supplies atmospheric pressure data to help pilots set their altimeters. And the units of atmospheric pressure used for reporting the atmospheric pressure data are inches of mercury. For a barometric pressure of 30.51 inches of mercury, we can calculate the pressure in kPa as follow:
In principle, 3.386 kPa is equivalent to the atmospheric pressure of 1 inch of mercury. Thus, 30.51 inches of mercury is equivalent to 30.51 in *(3.386 kPa/1 in) = 103.307 kPa.
Therefore, a barometric pressure of 30.51 inches of mercury corresponds to _____103.3_____ kPa.
