Water is being pumped from the bottom of a well 150 feet deep at a rate of 200 gal/hour into a vented storage tank 30 feet above

the ground. To prevent freezing in the winter, a small heater puts 30,000 BTU/hour into the water during its transfer from the well to the storage tank. Heat is lost from the whole system at a constant rate of 25,000 BTU/hr. What is the rise or fall in the temperature of the water as it enters the storage tank, if the well ware is at 35°F? A 2 HP pump is being used to pump the water. The pump efficiency is 55 percent. Evaluate any properties of water at 35°F.

Explanation:

As the given data is as follows.

        Height, H = 150 feet

 Heat gain = 30,000 BTU/hr,  and  Heat loss = 25000 BTU/hr

  m = mass of water heated = 700 gallons = 5810 lbs

C_{p} is the heat capacity of water = 1 BTU/lb ^{o}F (given)

      \Delta T = temperature difference = 120^{o}F - 35^{o}F

Heat energy required to heat 700 gal can be calculated as follows:

    Heat Required = 5810 lbs \times 1 BTU/lb^{o}F \times (120^{o}F - 35^{o}F)

Thus, water rises till 120^{o}F.

Pick a "for every" statement about copper and silver nitrate for this reaction.
maxonik [38]

From the equation of the reaction; for every 1 mole of copper, the reaction uses 2 moles of silver nitrate.

<h3>What is a reaction?</h3>

A chemical reaction involves the transformation of one chemical specie into another. The reaction is not shown here hence the question is incomplete.

However, the reaction should be of the sort; Cu + 2AgNO3 ---> Cu(NO3)2 + Cu. Thus, for every 1 mole of copper, the reaction uses 2 moles of silver nitrate.

Question
madam [21]

Answer:

The specific heat of the metal is 2.09899 J/g℃.

Explanation:

Given,

For Metal sample,

mass = 13 grams

T = 73°C

For Water sample,

mass = 60 grams

T = 22°C.

When the metal sample and water sample are mixed,

The addition of metal increases the temperature of the water, as the metal is at higher temperature, and the  addition of water decreases the temperature of metal. Therefore, heat lost by metal is equal to the heat gained by water.

Since, heat lost by metal is equal to the heat gained by water,

Qlost = Qgain

However,

Q = (mass) (ΔT) (Cp)

(mass) (ΔT) (Cp) = (mass) (ΔT) (Cp)

After mixing both samples, their temperature changes to 27°C.

It implies that , water sample temperature changed from  22°C to 27°C and metal sample temperature changed from 73°C to 27°C.

Since, Specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

Let Cp be the specific heat of the metal.

Substituting values,

(13)(73°C - 27°C)(Cp) = (60)(27°C - 22℃)(4.184)

By solving, we get Cp =

Therefore, specific heat of the metal sample is 2.09899 J/g℃.

If ice is warmed and becomes a liquid, which type of process is it?
ser-zykov [4K]
If ice is warmed and becomes a liquid, the process is endothermic.

The process requires heat in order to proceed. If ice stays in a very cold place, it will not melt unless it's heated. If ice is placed outside where it melts on its own, it gets the heat from the surroundings.
