The law of conservation of energy states that no energy is created nor destroyed. When using a backup generator, the generator uses energy from another resource.

The instruction booklet for your pressure cooker indicates that its highest setting is 11.8 psipsi . You know that standard atmo
zavuch27 [327]

<u>Answer:</u> The temperature at which the food will cook is 219.14°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the final temperature of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=14.7psi\\T_1=273K\\P_2=(14.7+11.8)psi=26.5psi\\T_2=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{14.7psi}{273K}=\frac{26.5psi}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\frac{26.5\times 273}{14.7}=492.14K

Converting the temperature from kelvins to degree Celsius, by using the conversion factor:

T(K)=T(^oC)+273

492.14=T(^oC)+273\\\\T(^oC)=219.14^oC

Hence, the temperature at which the food will cook is 219.14°C

Microwave radiation has a wavelength on the order of 1.0 cm. Calculate the frequency and the energy of a single photon of this r
denis23 [38]

Answer :

(1) The frequency of photon is, 3\times 10^{10}Hz

(2) The energy of a single photon of this radiation is 1.988\times 10^{-23}J/photon

(3) The energy of an Avogadro's number of photons of this radiation is, 11.97 J/mol

Explanation : Given,

Wavelength of photon = 1.0cm=0.01m     (1 m = 100 cm)

(1) Now we have to calculate the frequency of photon.

Formula used :

\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

where,

\nu = frequency of photon

\lambda = wavelength of photon

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\nu=\frac{3\times 10^8m/s}{0.01m}

\nu=3\times 10^{10}s^{-1}=3\times 10^{10}Hz    (1Hz=1s^{-1})

The frequency of photon is, 3\times 10^{10}Hz

(2) Now we have to calculate the energy of photon.

Formula used :

E=h\times \nu

where,

\nu = frequency of photon

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

E=(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times (3\times 10^{10}s^{-1})

E=1.988\times 10^{-23}J/photon

The energy of a single photon of this radiation is 1.988\times 10^{-23}J/photon

(3) Now we have to calculate the energy in J/mol.

E=1.988\times 10^{-23}J/photon

E=(1.988\times 10^{-23}J/photon)\times (6.022\times 10^{23}photon/mol)

E=11.97J/mol

The energy of an Avogadro's number of photons of this radiation is, 11.97 J/mol
