Calculate the number of kilojoules to warm 125 g of iron from 23.5 degrees C to 78 degrees C

1 answer:

5 0

The heat capacity of iron is 0.45J/g°C.
We calculate the heat using the equation:
ΔH = m cp ΔT
where
m is the mass
ΔH is enthalphy or the heat required
cp is the heat capacity
ΔT is the change in temperature
So,
ΔH = m cp ΔT = (125g) (0.45 J/g°C) (75°C - 23.5°C)
ΔH = 2896.875 J

Dividing by 1000 to convert to kJ,
ΔH = 2.897 kJ

When water reaches the metastable state, the phase of water will be?

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

water, when the metastable state is reached, is cooled below the zero temperature. It freezes abruptly. this is called metastable. They are not at equilibrium per se; as at negative temperatures the only equilibrium state of water is ice.

Using words, explain all steps of dimensional analysis when converting 6.7 hectometers to meters. You must explain the set up of

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

In order to convert 6.7 hectometers to meters using dimensional analysis, you must use the ratio of hectometers to meters.

There are 100 meters in one hectometer, then you start setting the equality: 100 m = 1 hm.

Dividing both sides by 1 hm you get the fraction form of the ratio, with meters (m) in the numerator and hectometers (hm) in the denominator.

$1m/100hm$

Since hm is in the numerator, when you multiply 6.7 hm by the unit ratio the hm will be canceled and the result will have only m:

$6.7hm\times 1m/100hm=0.067m$
