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.

At 450 mm Hg a gas has a volume of 760 L, what is its volume at standard pressure​
KatRina [158]

Answer:

450.0 L.

Explanation:

  • We can use the general law of ideal gas: <em>PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n and T are constant, and have different values of P and V:

<em>(P₁V₁) = (P₂V₂).</em>

<em></em>

V₁ = 760.0 L, P₁ = 450.0 mm Hg,

V₂ = ??? L, ​P₂ = 760.0 mm Hg (standard pressure = 1.0 atm = 760 mm Hg).

∴ V₂ = (P₁V₁)/(P₂) = (760.0 L)(450.0 mm Hg)/(760.0 mm Hg) = 450.0 L.

Stella [2.4K]
<span>SO3 for the formal charges, we have: for the single-bonded oxygens F.C. = 6 - [1/2(2) + 6] = -1 for the double-bonded oxygen F.C. = 6 - [1/2(4) + 4] = 0 for the sulfur F.C. = 6 - [1/2(8) + 0] = 2 Again, the formal charges add to zero. The oxidation numbers of O and S are -2 and +6, respectively. Note the three resonance forms!</span>
