In an area in which electricity costs 8 cents/kilowatt-hour, a 5 kW clothes dryer runs for 90 minutes to dry a load of laundry.

How much did it cost to dry these clothes?
Chemistry

90 minutes is 1.5 hours.

5 kW * 1.5 hours = 7.5 kWh

8c/kWh * 7.5 kWh = 60 cents

How many grams of carbon should be burned in an excess of oxygen at stp to obtain 2. 21 l of carbon dioxide?.
snow_tiger [21]
You must burn 1.17 g C to obtain 2.21 L CO2 at
STP.
The balanced chemical equation is
C+02+ CO2.
Step 1. Convert litres of CO, to moles of CO2.
STP is 0 °C and 1 bar. At STP the volume of 1 mol
of an ideal gas is 22.71 L.
Moles of CO2= 2.21 L CO2 × (1 mol CO2/22.71 L
CO2) = 0.097 31 mol CO2
Step 2. Use the molar ratio of C:CO2 to convert
moles of CO to moles of C
Moles of C= 0.097 31mol CO2 × (1 mol C/1 mol
CO2) = 0.097 31mol C
Step 3. Use the molar mass of C to calculate the
mass of C
Mass of C= 0.097 31mol C × (12.01 g C/1 mol C) =
1.17 g C
It looks as if you are using the old (pre-1982)
definition of STP. That definition gives a value of
1.18 g C.

In which type of chemical reaction are electrons transferred?
kupik [55]
The correct answer is 2. 

In oxidation-reduction reactions (or redox reactions), a number of electrons are transferred between two species. During this process, the oxidation number of an atom (or molecule or ion) changes by receiving or losing an electron.

A solution contains 6.21 g of ethylene glycol dissolved in 25.0 g of water. If water has a boiling point elevation constant of 0
timurjin [86]
Calculate first the number of moles of ethylene glycol by dividing the mass by the molar mass.
                           n = (6.21 g ethylene glycol) / 62.1 g/mol
                              n = 0.1 mol
Then, calculate the molality by dividing the number of moles by the mass of water (in kg).
                           m = 0.1 mol/ (0.025 kg) = 4m
Then, use the equation,
                       Tb,f = Tb,i + (kb)(m)
Substituting the known values,
                       Tb,f = 100°C + (0.512°C.kg/mol)(4 mol/kg)
                          <em>Tb,f = 102.048°C</em>
