Radioactive wastes are temporarily stored in a spherical container, the center of which is buried a distance of 10 m below the e

arth's air-soil surface. The outside diameter of the container is 2.0 m, and 500 W of heat are released as a result of radloactive decay. If the soll surface temperature is 25*C, what is the outslde surface temperature of the contalner?

Answer:

Outside temperature =88.03°C

Explanation:

Conductivity of air-soil from standard table

   K=0.60 W/m-k

To find temperature we need to balance energy

Heat generation=Heat dissipation

Now find the value

We know that for sphere

q=\dfrac{2\pi DK}{1-\dfrac{D}{4H}}(T_1-T_2)

Given that q=500 W

so

500=\dfrac{2\pi 2\times .6}{1-\dfrac{2}{4\times 10}}(T_1-25)

By solving that equation we get

T_2=88.03°C

So outside temperature =88.03°C

What is an isentropic process?
snow_tiger [21]

Answer: Isentropic process is the process in fluids which have a constant entropy.

Explanation: The  isentropic process is considered as the ideal thermodynamical  process and has both adiabatic as well as reversible processes in internal form.This process supports no transfer of heat and  no transformation of matter .The entropy of the provided mass also remains unchanged or consistent.These processes are usually carried out on material on  the efficient device.

A 13.7g sample of a compound exerts a pressure of 2.01atm in a 0.750L flask at 399K. What is the molar mass of the compound?a. 3
Katarina [22]

Answer: Option D) 298 g/mol  is the correct answer

Explanation:

Given that;

Mass of sample m = 13.7 g

pressure P = 2.01 atm

Volume V = 0.750 L

Temperature T = 399 K

Now taking a look at the ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

we solve for n

n = PV/RT

now we substitute

n = (2.01 atm x 0.750 L) / (0.0821 L-atm/mol-K x 399 K )

= 1.5075 / 32.7579

= 0.04601 mol

we know that

molar mass of the compound = mass / moles

so

Molar Mass = 13.7 g / 0.04601 mol

= 297.7 g/mol  ≈ 298 g/mol

Therefore Option D) 298 g/mol  is the correct answer
