A hydrocarbon sample was burned in a bomb calorimeter. The temperature of the calorimeter and the 1.00 kg of water rose from 20.

45°C to 23.65°C. The heat capacity of the calorimeter, excluding the water, is 2.21 kJ/°C. Using this information, determine the heat released by the combustion.

Answer:

The heat released by the combustion is 20,47 kJ

Explanation:

Bomb calorimeter is an instrument used to measure the heat of a reaction. The formula is:

Q = C×m×ΔT + Cc×ΔT

Where:

Q is the heat released

C is specific heat of water (4,186kJ/kg°C)

m is mass of water (1,00kg)

ΔT is temperature change (23,65°C - 20,45°C)

And Cc is heat capacity of the calorimeter (2,21kJ/°C)

Replacing these values the heat released by the combustion is:

<em>Q = 20,47 kJ</em>

Talja [164]

Answer:

True!

Explanation:

A spectrum is simply a chart or a graph that shows the intensity of light being emitted over a range of energies. Have you ever seen a spectrum before? Probably. Nature makes beautiful ones we call rainbows. Sunlight sent through raindrops is spread out to display its various colors (the different colors are just the way our eyes perceive radiation with slightly different energies).

Hope i helped!

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

I will need  six (6) bags of potting soil

Explanation:

Since you plan on planting in 10 pots and need 15 cups of potting soil per pot, the total amount of potting soil you need <em>(in cups)</em> is 10 X 15 = 150 cups of potting soil.

We have that a bag contains 25 sups. to get the number of bags needed, we have to divide 150 by 25. This will give us 150 / 25 = 6 bags.

Therefore, I will need  six (6) bags of potting soil
