C. Chemical energy transforms into thermal energy and light energy.

The reason why this is the answer is because thermal energy and heat energy are basically the same things, so D is wrong. Another reason why is because the wood wasn't on fire to begin with so it cant be A. The final reason is that wood cannot create electricity.

A bubble of helium gas has a volume of 0.65 L near the bottom of a large

Flura [38]

Answer:

0.73L

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question :

V1 = 0.65 L

P1 = 3.4 atm

T1 = 19°C = 19 + 273 = 292K

V2 =?

P2 = 3.2 atm

T2 = 36°C = 36 + 273 = 309K

The bubble's volume near the top can be obtain as follows:

P1V1 /T1 = P2V2 /T2

3.4 x 0.65/292 = 3.2 x V2 /309

Cross multiply to express in linear form as shown below:

292 x 3.2 x V2 = 3.4 x 0.65 x 309

Divide both side by 292 x 3.2

V2 = (3.4 x 0.65 x 309) /(292 x 3.2)

V2 = 0.73L

Therefore, the bubble's volume near the top is 0.73L

In the manufacture of paper, logs are cut into small chips, which are stirred into an alkaline solution that dissolves several o

Kitty [74]

Answer:

The estimated feed rate of logs is 14.3 logs/min.

Explanation:

The product of the process is 2000 tons/day of dry wood pulp, of 85 wt% of cellulose. That represents (2000*0.85)=1700 tons/day of cellulose.

That cellulose has to be feed by the wood chips, which had 47 wt% of cellulose in its composition. That means you need (1700/0.47)=3617 tons/day of wood chips to provide all that cellulose.

Th entering flow is wood chips with 45 wt% of water. This solution has an specific gravity of 0.640.

To know the specific gravity of the wood chips we have to write a volume balance. We also know that Mw=0.45*M and Mc=0.55*M.

$V=V_c+V_w\\\\M/\rho=M_c/\rho_c+Mw/\rho_w\\\\M/\rho=0.55*M/\rho_c+0.45*M/\rho_w\\\\1/\rho=0.55/\rho_c +0.45/\rho_w\\\\0.55/\rho_c=1/\rho-0.45/\rho_w\\\\0.55/\rho_c=1/(0.64*\rho_w)-0.45/\rho_w=(1/\rho_w)*(\frac{1}{0.64}-\frac{0.45}{1} )\\\\0.55/\rho_c=1.1125/\rho_w\\\\\rho_c=\frac{0.55}{1.1125}*\rho_w= 0.494*\rho_w$

The specific gravity of the wood chips is 0.494.

The average volume of a log is

$V_l=(\pi*D^{2} /4)*L=(3.1416*\frac{8^{2} \, in^{2} }{4} )*9ft*(\frac{12 in}{1ft})= 21714 in^{3}=12.57 ft^{3}$

The weight of one log is

$M=\rho*V=0.494*\rho_w*12.57 ft^{3}\\\\M=0.494*62.4\frac{lbm}{ft^{3} }*12.57ft^{3}\\\\M=387.5lbm$

To provide 3617 ton/day of wood chips, we need

$n=\frac{supply}{M_{log}}=\frac{3617 tons/day}{387.5 lbm}*\frac{2204lbm}{1ton}\\\\n=20573 logs/day=14.3 logs/min$

The feed rate of logs is 14.3 logs/min.

Nesterboy [21]

They are more likely to be covalent as covalent compounds usually tend to be radical on the color spectrum with deep purples and blacks and even earwax colored.
