calculate the amount of time required to rise the temperature of 0.50 liter of water from 0.0 c to 10.0 c if the energy is suppl

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The amount of time required to rise the temperature of 0.50 liter of water from 0.0 c to 10.0 c is 19 seconds

Explanation:

1100 J/s is the energy supplied so, we have to set, the energy to that ΔT, which is 10°C (10°-0°)

Q = m . C. ΔT

Q = 500g . 4,186J/g°C . 10°C

Remember the water density is 1g/mL, so if we have 0,5 L, we should get the convertion to g. (1ml = 1x10*-3 L)

1x10*-3 L ____ 1 g

0,5 L _____ (0,5 L . 1 g)/ 1x10*-3 L = 500g

4,186J/g°C, this value is known as specific heat of water. It is a known value.

Q = 500g . 4,186J/g°C . 10°C = 20930 J

Now the final rule of three:

1100 J supplies at _____ 1 second

20930 J supplies at _____ (20930 J . 1 s) / 1100 J =19,02 s

An excited ozone molecule, O3*, in the atmosphere can undergo one of the following reactions,O3* → O3 (1) fluorescenceO3* → O +

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The simplified expression for the fraction is $\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cM} }{k_1 +k_2 + k_3 }$

Explanation:

From the given information:

O3* → O3 (1) fluorescence

O + O2 (2) decomposition

O3* + M → O3 + M (3) deactivation

The rate of fluorescence = rate of constant (k₁) × Concentration of reactant (cO)

The rate of decomposition is = k₂ × cO

The rate of deactivation = k₃ × cO × cM

where cM is the concentration of the inert molecule

The fraction (X) of ozone molecules undergoing deactivation in terms of the rate constants can be expressed by using the formula:

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ \text {rate of deactivation} }{ \text {(rate of fluorescence) +(rate of decomposition) + (rate of deactivation) } } }$

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cO \times cM} }{ {(k_1 \times cO) +(k_2 \times cO) + (k_3 \times cO \times cM) } }$

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cO \times cM} }{cO (k_1 +k_2 + k_3 \times cM) }$

$\text {X} = \dfrac{ {k_3 \times cM} }{k_1 +k_2 + k_3 }$ since cM is the concentration of the inert molecule
