Answer:

The region just above the light bulb is warmest due to the phenomenon of convection.

Explanation:

In the given case, as Xavier places his hands close to a light bulb, he feels that some of the regions around the light bulb are warmer in comparison to others. This takes place due to the phenomenon known as convection because of which the region directly above the light bulb gets warmest in comparison to the other regions.  

Convection refers to the transfer of heat with the help of mass movement of fluid like air, and the phenomenon takes place above a hot surface as hot air expands, becomes less dense, and elevates. This thing can be supported by the ideal gas law.

The mass percent of solute in a solution containing 3.73 g KBr dissolved in 131 g of H2O is:
Elina [12.6K]

\huge \underbrace \mathfrak \red{Answer}

28%

Explanation:

mass of solute(KBr) = 3.73g

mass of solvent(H2O) = 131g

mass of solution = mass of solute + mass of solvent

= 3.73 + 131

= 134.73g

\sf \large {mass \: percentage =  \frac{mass \: of \: solute}{mass \: of \: solvent}  \times 100} \\  \\  \sf  mass \: percentage =  \frac{3.73}{134.73}  \times 100 \\  \\  \sf mass \: percentage =  0.028 \times 100 \\  \\  \sf mass \: percentage = 28\%
