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.

Svetach [21]

Answer:

E.  All of the Above

Explanation:

By doing any kind of exercise or physical activity, you are increasing your overall health.  Your muscle strengthen because of the jumping and movement of arms.  You are more alert because you have to time each jump right in order to keep going.  By breathing evenly while jumping, you do help your Cardiorespiratory fitness as well.  And of course, you increase your athletic ablility over all with much endurance and practice.

What is the energy of the photon emitted when an electron in a mercury atom drops from energy level f to energy level b?
xeze [42]

The energy of the photon emitted when an electron in a mercury atom drops from energy level f to energy level b is 3.06 eV.

<h3>Change in energy level of the electron</h3>

When photons jump from a higher energy level to a lower level, they emit or radiate energy.

The change in energy level of the electrons is calculated as follows;

ΔE = Eb - Ef

ΔE = -2.68 eV - (-5.74 eV)

ΔE = 3.06 eV

Thus, the energy of the photon emitted when an electron in a mercury atom drops from energy level f to energy level b is 3.06 eV.

Why society might initially reject a new scientific theory?
Irina18 [472]

I was about to say:  because people generally get comfortable with
what they think they know, and don't like the discomfort of being told
that they have to change something they're comfortable with.

But then I thought about it a little bit more, and I have a different answer.

"Society" might initially reject a new scientific theory, because 'society'
is totally unequipped to render judgement of any kind regarding any
development in Science. 

First of all, 'Society' is a thing that's made of a bunch of people, so it's
inherently unequipped to deal with scientific news.  Anything that 'Society'
decides has a lot of the mob psychology in it, and a public opinion poll or
a popularity contest are terrible ways to evaluate a scientific discovery.

Second, let's face it.  The main ingredient that comprises 'Society' ... people ...
are generally uneducated, unknowledgeable, unqualified, and clueless in the
substance, the history, and the methods of scientific inquiry and reporting.

There may be very good reasons that some particular a new scientific theory
should be rejected, or at least seriously questioned.  But believe me, 'Society'
doesn't have them.

That's pretty much why.
