The burning of a sample of propane

Chemistry
1 answer:
r-ruslan [8.4K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

70.0°C

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Amount of heat generated by propane as 104.6 kJ or 104600 Joules
  • Mass of water is 500 g
  • Initial temperature as 20.0 ° C

We are required to determine the final temperature of water;

Taking the initial temperature is x°C

We know that the specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g°C

Quantity of heat = Mass × specific heat × change in temperature

In this case;

Change in temp =(x-20)° C

Therefore;

104600 J = 500 g × 4.18 J/g°C × (x-20)

104600 J = 2090x -41800

146400 = 2090 x

  x = 70.0479

     =70.0 °C

Thus, the final temperature of water is 70.0°C

quizlet a basement is successfully sealed so that more radon may not enter the space, but 5.7×107 radon atoms are already trappe
12345 [234]

After 25 days, it remains radon 5.9x10^5 atoms.

Half-life is the time required for a quantity (in this example number of radioactive radon) to reduce to half its initial value.

N(Ra) = 5.7×10^7; initial number of radon atoms

t1/2(Ra) = 3.8 days; the half-life of the radon is 3.8 days

n = 25 days / 3.8 days

n = 6.58; number of half-lifes of radon

N1(Ra) = N(Ra) x (1/2)^n

N1(Ra) = 5.7×10^7 x (1/2)^6.58

N1(Ra) = 5.9x10^5; number of radon atoms after 25 days

The half-life is independent of initial concentration (size of the sample).

Which is most likely why many scientist reject the cold fusion theory
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

There is too much waste involved in the process. Cold fusion experiments have been conducted at room temperature only. The process does not produce enough energy to meet the needs of modern humans.

Why does a red object appear red?
NeTakaya

Answer:

Objects appear different colours because they absorb some colours (wavelengths) and reflected or transmit other colours. ... For example, a red shirt looks red because the dye molecules in the fabric have absorbed the wavelengths of light from the violet/blue end of the spectrum
