The statement is constructed with the purest form of veracity, and
it is True in every respect, every jot and tittle, ever 'p' and 'q'.
Truer words are rarely if ever spoken.  Verily and forsooth,
Most comets indeed come from a dark, distant, foreboding
place in the solar system, unknown until very recently, and
now referred to as the "Oört Cloud".

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Oort cloud is an icy region. It is named after a Dutch Astronomer who discovered it, theoretically. It is a spherical region that stretches far beyond Pluto, in our Solar system.

The region over which it stretches beyond the Sun is estimated to be about one and half light years and more. Temperatures are between 0 C to 4 C, in that region. Comets, ice chunks planetesimals are all a part of that region. These exist in  huge numbers.

1. How much energy would be required to melt 450 grams of ice at 0°C?
xenn [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. The amount of heat needed to melt ice at 0°C is equal to the mass of the ice times the latent heat of fusion.

q = mL

q = (450 g) (334 J/g)

q = 150,300 J

q = 150 kJ

2. The amount of heat released by the condensation of steam at 100°C is equal to the mass of the steam times the latent heat of vaporization.

q = mL

q = (325 g) (2260 J/g)

q = 734,500 J

q = 735 kJ

3. q = mL

q = (85 g) (2260 J/g)

q = 192,100 J

q = 190 kJ

4. q = mL

q = (225 g) (334 J/g)

q = 75,150 J

q = 75.2 kJ

5. Above 100°C, water is steam.  The amount of heat needed to increase the temperature of steam is equal to its mass times its specific heat times the change in temperature.

q = mCΔT

q = (20.0 g) (2.03 J/g/°C) (303.0°C − 283.0°C)

q = 812 J

6. q = mCΔT

q = (15.0 g) (2.03 J/g/°C) (250.0°C − 275.0°C)

q = -761 J

7. q = mCΔT

q = (10.0 g) (0.90 J/g/°C) (55°C − 22°C)

q = 297 J

8. q = mCΔT

198 J = (55.0 g) C (15°C)

C = 0.24 J/g/°C

9. q = mCΔT

41,840 J = m (4.184 J/g/°C) (28.5°C − 22.0°C)

m = 1540 g

10. q = mCΔT

q = (193 g) (2.46 J/g/°C) (35°C − 19°C)

q = 7600 J

11. First, the temperature of the ice must be raised to 0°C.

q = mCΔT

q = m (2.09 J/g/°C) (0°C − (-23.0°C))

q/m = 48.1 J/g

Next, the ice must be melted.

q = mL

q/m = 334 J/g

Then, the water must be heated to 100°C.

q = mCΔT

q = m (4.184 J/g/°C) (100°C − 0°C)

q/m = 418.4 J/g

The water is then vaporized.

q = mL

q/m = 2260 J/g

Finally, the steam is heated to its final temperature.

q = mCΔT

q = m (2.03 J/g/°C) (118°C − 100°C)

q/m = 36.5 J/g

So the total amount of energy needed is:

q/m = 48.1 J/g + 334 J/g + 418.4 J/g + 2260 J/g + 36.5 J/g

q/m = 3100 J/g

A 50-g chunk of 80 degrees C iron is dropped into a cavity in a very large block of ice at 0 degrees C. Show that 5.5 g of ice w
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

5.5g of ice melts when a 50g chunk of iron at 80°C is dropped into a cavity

Explanation:

The concept to solve this problem is given by Energy Transferred, the equation is given by,

Q = mc\Delta T

Where,

Q= Energy transferred

m = mass of water

c = specific heat capacity

\Delta T = Temperature change (K or °C)

Replacing the values where mass is 50g and temperature is 80°C to 0°C we have,

Q = mc\Delta T

Q = 50*0.11*(80-0)

Q = 440cal

Then we can calculate the heat absorbed by m grams of ice at 0°C, then

Q_2 = mL = 80*m

How Q_1=Q_2, so

80m=440

m=\frac{440}{80}

m = 5.5g

Then 5.5g of ice melts when a 50g chunk of iron at 80°C is dropped into a cavity
