Answer:

The change in entropy ΔS = 0.0011 kJ/(kg·K)

Explanation:

The given information are;

The mass of water at 20.0°C = 1.0 kg

The mass of water at 80.0°C = 2.0 kg

The heat content per kg of each of the mass of water is given as follows;

The heat content of the mass of water at 20.0°C = h₁ = 83.92 KJ/kg

The heat content of the mass of water at 80.0°C = h₂ = 334.949 KJ/kg

Therefore, the total heat of the the two bodies = 83.92 + 2*334.949 = 753.818 kJ/kg

The heat energy of the mixture =

1 × 4200 × (T - 20) = 2 × 4200 × (80 - T)

∴ T = 60°C

The heat content, of the water at 60° = 251.154 kJ/kg

Therefore, the heat content of water in the 3 kg of the mixture = 3 × 251.154 = 753.462

The change in entropy ΔS = ΔH/T = (753.818 - 753.462)/(60 + 273.15) = 0.0011 kJ/(kg·K).

a compound is 24.7% calcium, 1.2% hydrogen, 14.8% carbon, and 59.3% oxygen. write the empirical formula and name the compound.
Tema [17]
For simplicity, assume that the total mass of the compound is 100 g.

Therefore, by mass
Ca = 24.7 g, H = 1.2 g, C = 14.8 g, and O = 59.3 g

Converting these to moles

Mol = mass*1/atomic mass
Ca = 24.7*1/40.078 =0.6163 mol Ca
H = 1.2*1/1.01 = 1.1881 mol H
C = 14.8*1/12.01 = 1.2323 mol C
O = 59.3/16 = 3.7062 mol O

Next, divide all the mols by the smallest value obtained.

Ca: 0.6163/0.6163 = 1 mol Ca
H: 1.1881/0.6163 = 2 mol H
C: 1.2323/0.6163 = 2mol C
O: 3.7062/0.6163 = 6 mol O

Therefore, empirical formula of the compound is

CaH2C2O6

This compound is referred to as Calcium Bicarbonate

A triangular plate with height 6 ft and a base of 8 ft is submerged vertically in water so that the top is 4 ft below the surfac
solmaris [256]

Answer:

F=4673.95lbs

Explanation:

Recall weight density of water 62.5 lb/ft^3 and the height 6ft base 8ft

The width of the triangle

\frac{W(x)}{7}=\frac{(8-x)}{2}

The hydrostatic force is the pressure times area of the submerged

W(x)=\frac{7*(8-x)}{4}

F=\int\limits {p} \, dA

F=\int\limits^8_2 {pgx*\frac{7}{4}*(8-x)} \, dx

F=\int\limits^8_2 {62.5*\frac{7}{4}*x*(8-x)} \, dx

F=109.375\int\limits^8_4{(8x-x^2)} \, dx

F=109.375[4x^2-\frac{1}{3}x^3]|4,8

F=109.375*42.73=4673.95lbs
