Why is the combined cycle power generation system so much more efficient that the straight steam cycle?

Chemistry
1 answer:
rewona [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  Because it uses the residual energy of the fluid used by the first engine.

Explanation:

  A combined cycle power generation counts with two heat engines that work in tandem from the same source of heat. The engines turn the energy into mechanical energy.

  The cycle is much more efficient than the other, almost 60% more.

  I hope this answer helps you.

. What is a carbonyl group? Draw the carbonyl groups that are characteristic of aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters
Elan Coil [88]

Answer :

  • Carbonyl group : It is a functional group composed of a carbon atom that double bonded to oxygen atom. It is represented as C=O

Carboxylic group : It is the class of organic compound in which the carboxylic (-COOH) group is attached to a hydrocarbon is known as carboxylic.

The general formula of carboxylic is, C_nH_{2n+1}COOH. According to the IUPAC naming, the carboxylic are named as alkanoic acids.

Aldehyde group : It is the class of organic compound in which the (-CHO) group is attached to a hydrocarbon is known as aldehyde.

The general representation of aldehyde is, R-CHO. According to the IUPAC naming, the aldehyde are named as alkanals.

Ketone group : It is the class of organic compound in which the (-CO) group is directly attached to the two alkyl group of carbon is known as ketone.

The general representation of ketone is, R-CO-R^'. According to the IUPAC naming, the ketone are named as alkanone.

Ester group : It is the class of organic compound in which the (-COO) group is directly attached to the two alkyl group of carbon is known as ester.

The general representation of ester is, R-COO-R^'. According to the IUPAC naming, the ester are named as alkyl alkanoate.

Hi. I need help with this
Vlad1618 [11]

Factors that determine ionization energy:

  • Electronic Repulsion - If the electronic density decreases, the ionization energy with increase and vice versa. If an electron gets released, it decreases the electronic repulsion. This makes releasing another electron harder than the first on unless the electron that is being released comes from another energetic level.
  • # Of Energy Levels - The more energy cores that get filled up, the more ionization levels decrease. When we see the energy levels go from top to bottom, the ionization also go from most to least. This is why ionization occurs on the highest level.
  • Nuclear Charge - The higher the atomic number, the higher charge in the nuclei. This also makes the ionization energy higher as it increases from left to right of in other words, if the nuclear charge gets higer, the energy gets higher as well.

Factors that determine atomic volume:

  • How many protons are in the nucleus (nuclear charge)
  • How many energy levels carry electrons (electrons in outer energy level)

Best of Luck!

Student perfotms a Benedict's test on an unknown substance. He adds reagent(the chemical required to make a color change), and n
elixir [45]

Answer:

Reducing sugars are absent

Explanation:

Benedict's solution is an substance used in testing sugars. It is mixture of sodium carbonate, sodium citrate and copper(II) sulfate pentahydrate. It can be used instead of Fehling's solution in testing for the presence of reducing sugars.

Reducing sugars contain the -CHO group. If there is no colour change after the addition of Benedict's solution, then we can conclude that reducing sugars are absent.
