Iron-56 has the greatest binding energy per nucleon while Hydrogen-3 has the lowest based on the information in the graph of average binding energy per nucleon against number of nucleons in nucleus. We know that the the greater the amount of binding energy per nucleon the greater the nuclear stability is, thus Iron-56 is the most stable atom among Helium-4, Uranium-238 and Hydrogen-3.

A sample of copper with a mass of 1.80 kg, initially at a temperature of 150.0°C, is in a well-insulated container. Water at a t

user100 [1]

Answer:

the mass of water is 0.3 Kg

Explanation:

since the container is well-insulated, the heat released by the copper is absorbed by the water , therefore:

Q water + Q copper = Q surroundings =0 (insulated)

Q water = - Q copper

since Q = m * c * ( T eq - Ti ) , where m = mass, c = specific heat, T eq = equilibrium temperature and Ti = initial temperature

and denoting w as water and co as copper :

m w * c w * (T eq - Tiw) = - m co * c co * (T eq - Ti co) = m co * c co * (T co - Ti eq)

m w = m co * c co * (T co - Ti eq) / [ c w * (T eq - Tiw) ]

We take the specific heat of water as c= 1 cal/g °C = 4.186 J/g °C . Also the specific heat of copper can be found in tables → at 25°C c co = 0.385 J/g°C

if we assume that both specific heats do not change during the process (or the change is insignificant)

m w = m co * c co * (T eq - Ti co) / [ c w * (T eq - Tiw) ]

m w= 1.80 kg * 0.385 J/g°C ( 150°C - 70°C) /( 4.186 J/g°C ( 70°C- 27°C))

m w= 0.3 kg

A pressure vessel that has a volume of 10m3 is used to store high-pressure air for operating a supersonic wind tunnel. If the ai

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The mass of air stored in the vessel is 235.34 kilograms.

Explanation:

Let supossed that air inside pressure vessel is an ideal gas, The density of the air ( $\rho$ ), measured in kilograms per cubic meter, is defined by following equation:

$\rho = \frac{P\cdot M}{R_{u}\cdot T}$ (1)

Where:

$P$ - Pressure, measured in kilopascals.

$M$ - Molar mass, measured in kilomoles per kilogram.

$R_{u}$ - Ideal gas constant, measured in kilopascal-cubic meters per kilomole-Kelvin.

$T$ - Temperature, measured in Kelvin.

If we know that $P = 2026.5\,kPa$ , $M = 28.965\,\frac{kg}{kmol}$ , $R_{u} = 8.314\,\frac{kPa\cdot m^{2}}{kmol\cdot K}$ and $T = 300\,K$ , then the density of air is:
