You need to find the mass of water in the pool.
Find the volume (10 x 4 x 3) = 120 m3

Water has a density of 1000g/m3,so 120 m3 = 120 x 1000 = 120 000 kg

[delta]H = 4.187 x 120 000 x 3.4 (and the units will be kJ)

You then use the heat of combustion knowing that each mole of methane releases 891 kJ of heat so if you divide 891 into the previous answer, you will get the number of moles of CH4

Answer:

119.69 kilo liter volume of methane measured at STP, must be burned.

Explanation:

Length of the pool= 10.0 m

Breadth of the pool = 4.0 m

Height upto which the pool will be filled= 3.0 m

Volume of the water in the pool = volume of the pool :

= 10.0 m × 4.0 m × 3.0 m = 120.0 m^3

Density water = 997 kg/m^3

Mass of the water(m) = Density \times volume =997 kg/m^3\times 120 m^3=119,640 kg

Energy required to raise the temperature = Q

Mass of the water = m = 119,640 kg =119,640\times 1,000 g=119,640,000 g

Specific heat of water ,c= 4.186 J/g °C

Change in temperature, \Delta T=29.7^oC-20.2^oC=9.5 ^oC

Q=mc\Delta T

Q=119,640,000 g\times 4.186J/g ^oC\times 9.5 ^oC

Q = 476,113.36\times 10^4J=476,1133.6 kJ

Heat required to raised the temperature is 476,1133.6 kJ.

Heat evolved when 1 mol of methane = -891 Kj

Number of moles of methane giving (- 476,1133.6) kJ of heat:

\frac{-476,1133.6 kJ.}{-891}=5,343.58 mol

At STP, 1 mol occupies = 22.4 L

Then 5,343.58 mol will occupy :22.4\times 5,343.58 L=119,696.19 l=119.69 kilo liter

119.69 kilo liter volume of methane measured at STP, must be burned.

A supersonic jet, with a mass of 21,000 kg, departs from its home airbase with a velocity of 400 m/s due east. What is the jet’s
disa [49]

Answer:

Momentum  P is 840000kgm/s or 8.4 × 10^6

Explanation:

Data :

        Mass = 21000 kg

        Velocity = 400 m/s

So momentum is given as

      P = mv

      P = 21000×400

    P = 8400000 kgm/s

       P = 8.4 × 10^6

Uranium-235 decays to thorium-231 with a half-life of 700 million years. When a rock was formed, it contained 6400 million urani
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

proof in explanation

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the number of half-lives:

n = \frac{t}{t_{1/2}}

where,

n = no. of half-lives = ?

t = total time passed = 2100 million years

t_{1/2} = half-life = 700 million years

Therefore,

n = \frac{2100\ million\ years}{700\ million\ years}\\\\n = 3

Now, we will calculate the number of uranium nuclei left (n_u):

n_u = \frac{1}{2^{n} }(total\ nuclei)\\\\n_u = \frac{1}{2^{3} }(6400\ million)\\\\n_u = \frac{1}{8}(6400\ million)\\\\n_u =  800\ million

and the rest of the uranium nuclei will become thorium nuclei (u_{th})

n_{th} = total\ nuclei - n_u\\n_{th} = 6400\ million-800\ million\\n_{th} = 5600\ million

dividing both:

\frac{n_{th}}{n_u}=\frac{5600\ million}{800\ million} \\\\n_{th} = 7n_u

<u>Hence, it is proven that after 2100 million years there are seven times more thorium nuclei than uranium nuclei in the rock.</u>
