What chemical property must argon have to make it a suitable choice for light bulbs?

1 answer:

8 0

Argon is a suitable choice for light bulbs because it's inert. Compared to a reactive gas like oxygen, the metal filimant would burn up in a reactive enviroment, which is why a noble gas is used.

In a wave, energy is...

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Wave energy is the transport and capture of energy by ocean surface waves. The energy captured is then used for all different kinds of useful work, including electricity generation, water desalination, and pumping of water.

How much energy is required to heat 36.0 g H2O from a liquid at 65°C to a gas at 115°C? The following physical data may be usefu

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

energy required=qnet=87.75kJ

Explanation:

we will do it in three seperate step and then add up those value.

first step is to heat the sample of water upto 100C i.e upto boiling pont. because just after this sample of water started vaporization.

q 1= m c (T2-T1)

q1 = 36.0 g (4.18 J/gC) (100 - 65 C)

q1 = 5267 J =5.267kJ

next is to vaporize the sample at 100C

q2 = 36.0 g / 18.0 g/mol X 40.7 kJ/mol

q2= 81.4 kJ

Finally, heat the steam upto 115C

q3 = m c (T2-T1)

q 3= 36.0 g (2.01 J/gC)(115-100C)

q3 = 1085 J =1.085kJ

qnet=q1 +q2 +q3

energy required=qnet=87.75kJ

In the "Méthode Champenoise," grape juice is fermented in a wine bottle to produce sparkling wine. The reaction is the following

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The pressure inside the wine bottle at 21 °C is 4.8 · 10² atm

Explanation:

Hi there!

We know that 1 mol of CO₂ is produced per mol of produced ethanol.

If the final concentration of ethanol is 13%, let´s calculate how many moles of ethanol are present at that concentration.

A concentration of 13% means that in 100 ml of solution, 13 ml is dissolved ethanol. We have 754 ml of solution, then, the volume of ethanol will be:

754 ml solution · (13 ml ethanol/100 ml solution) = 98 ml ethanol

With the density, we can calculate the mass of ethanol present:

density = mass/ volume

0.79 g/ml = mass / 98 ml

mass = 0.79 g/ml · 98 ml

mass = 77 g

The molar mass of ethanol is 46.07 g/mol, then 77 g of ethanol is equal to:

77 g · (1 mol/46.07 g) = 1.7 mol

Then, the number of moles of CO₂ produced will be 1.7 mol.

Using the equation of the ideal gas law, we can calculate the pressure of CO₂:

P = nRT/V

Where:

P = pressure

n = number of moles

R = ideal gas constant

T = temperature

V = volume

The volume will be the headspace of the bottle (840 ml - 754 ml) 86 ml = 0.086 l.

The temperature in kelvin will be: 21 + 273 = 294 K

The gas constant is 0.082 l atm / K mol

Then:

P = (1.7 mol · 0.082 l atm/K mol · 294 K)/ 0.086 l

P = 4.8 · 10² atm

The pressure inside the wine bottle at 21 °C is 4.8 · 10² atm

Which path will a carbon atom most likely travel from CO2 in the atmosphere to glucose in the cell of a secondary consumer

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The carbon will have to travel in the form of CO2 from the atmosphere to a primary producer (green plant), from there to a primary consumer (herbivorous animal), and finally to a secondary consumer.</em>

The primary producer (a green plant) would fix the carbon in the CO2 to carbohydrate through a process known as photosynthesis. The equation of the process is as shown below:

$6 CO_2 + 6 H_2O --> C_6H_1_2O_6 + 6 O_2$

The carbon, now in the form of carbohydrate, would then be picked up by an animal (a primary consumer) that feeds on the green plant. The carbon would eventually get into a secondary consumer when the secondary consumer feeds on the primary consumer that fed on the green plant.
